Talk:39th District corruption scandal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

WiskeyPete: I hope you would agree that every "bad apple" should not be the focus of the barrel. The article reflects an anti-police bias. If you wish to create another section in the article and discuss contriversies or "black-eyes"...go ahead. But it needs to be in a format that informs...NOT tarnishes. Any officer that ruins their OWN name should be vilified. The person that protects the peace....and places their own lives above all others should not.

Point taken. Intent is not to smear, or villify, but to understand. AFAIK the basic history of what happened in the 39th is well established, and the only officers named (thus far) are those who have received convictions. Again, and additional background information you have would be appreciated. --User:Whiskey Pete.
