Qualified Impunity

     Police can be bad enough they get sent home without supper -- or any police powers.  IMPD's David Reese did something Friday -- details are sketchy, just two counts of battery and one of "residential entry" -- that earned him suspension without pay, loss of police powers and some time with IMPD's "Wellness" program.  And some other time in court.

     What happened, exactly?  Couldn't tell you.  And neither can our local media outlets.  Thin blue line is running a wee bit opaque at present.

  1. "residential entry". Is that the way the police sugar coat "breaking and entry" or "illegal entry" when one of their own does it and they don't want it on the prosecutors radar?

  2. Not good... And agree with Dave...
