The police always seem to be up to trouble don’t they? A bunch of LAPD officers have been caught and reprimanded for removing the antennas from their police cars while in black areas. HMMM, so, here you have officers removing recording devices from their vehicles while in black neighborhoods. What does that tell you? Crooked conversations, unnecessary harassment and Lord knows what else could be taking place, and all they received was a warning. Some system we have today. Check this ish out!
When news first broke about this move, members of the Police Commission were alarmed and wanted to know why this was happening. In addition to this, they wanted to know how long this has been going on and who authorized this move.
In a review of what transpired, it was concluded that ‘half of the 80 cars in the Southeast division—which includes Watts and the Jordan Downs and Nickerson Gardens housing projects—were missing the antennas that help capture what officers say in the field. The review discovered at least 10 more cars in nearby divisions also had antennas removed.’
Steve Soboroff, President of the commission stated that this issue should have been brought to their attention and made available by those officers. The antennas are used for the safety of the officers and the public.
A warning was issued to officers about removing their antennas.
Cops be winning. They get away with murder… literally. SMH.
