Note they suspend a cop pending investigation, but the paper didn’t include that. The alternative to suspension is keeping a potential offender on the job, but they can’t have someone lose their house on an accusation that turns out to be unfounded, so suspension is the ugly middle-ground.
And, cops are paid by taxes. Duh. So it’s “taxpayers” footing the bill that’s artificially blown up by an arbitrary time period to push a story.
Report on the fact that cops are getting in trouble and too many of them are kept on in the same spots where they offended. Don’t make it a taxation and pay issue to suck in the hillbilly con-lovers when it’s really a disciplinary thing. Pick a fucking dog whistle and stick with it.
