    “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.

      It’s almost like there’s a huge problem that isn’t being addressed

      (I agree with you)

      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.

    If covering protests for police brutality leads to police brutality, you live in a brutal police state.

    That didn’t happen. And if it did, it wasn’t that bad. And if it was, that’s not a big deal. And if it is, that’s not my fault. And if it was, I didn’t mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.

    Anyway, here’s 700,000. For the…you know…lack of us doing anything

      It’s such bullshit that you can even do that! Especially in cases such as this where it’s crystal clear that they DID commit a shitload of wrongdoings that would have landed regular people in jail!

    Police departments offer massive settlements because it never comes out of police budgets and if the case is settled then they never have to address the harm they continue to cause.
