    “In agreeing to the settlement, the county and sheriff’s department admitted no wrongdoing in connection with the incident.”

    Awesome, so the taxpayers pay off the settlement and the sheriff’s department faces no repercussions.

      Hey, the two deputies had to redo training though. Definitely not a culture problem in the LASD though. I mean they’ve only been investigated like multiple times by the FBI in the last decade including in the last few months and have a horrible reputation by the public at large.

        They only have a horrible reputation because people like you won’t stop talking about those times that they assaulted a human being while shitting on the constitution and violating human rights and then are only punished with some light training.

        If you really think about it, it’s your own fault that people won’t forget that the LAPD has a deep-rooted culture problem that has been investigated multiple times by the FBI in the last decade and have a horrible reputation by the public at large.

        I think it’s time we try to be part of the solution and help out the LAPD by telling people to pay less attention to them.

        Hey! Stop looking over here at the LAPD!!!

        Don’t investigate the multiple human rights violations committed by the LAPD that continue to this day!

        Many reports have found that there are violent, malicious gangs in the LAPD, and you really shouldn’t even think about that!

          Don’t forget that the LASD Union says that searching Deputies for gang tattoos violates their civil rights.
