Really, use some commone sense Spreadfire.
Now, Chief Pennington confirmed there are questions as to whether there was ever a drug buy at Kathryn Johnston’s home – the informant told the Internal Affairs Unit he was told to lie.
“Officers are saying one thing – confidential informant is saying something else,” said Chief Richard Pennington.
Why is IE interested in the informant if he's claiming that someone other than the police told him to lie? Why is the ENTIRE drug taskforce on suspension if it is alleged that someone other than the police told him to lie (bty, I believe more members of the task force are suspended than were involved in the raid).
Why is the FBI, and Justice Department involved if there was not this allegation of police corruption?
BTW, the informant is now in FBI custody, so I suspect we might actually findo ut what happened, more likely than if he was just being interviewed by Atlanta PD IE.
The chief out-right said "either the police officers are lying, or the informant is." http://www.cbs46.com/ (see the vid, not the article).
I'm not making some WAG here, rather I'm drawing a perfectly reasonable conclusion based on what is being said, and the actions that are being taken.
You have been wrong about nearly everything you've said regarding this issue. Each NEW news report paints the police in a worse and worse light (and refutes your past arguments one by one), and as you lose point after point you continue grasping at straws to defend them in THIS instance. Unbelievable.
