Dorner's con game worked

47. What I am repeating is well known police scandals

One of them earned LAPD a DOJ investigation

The Rampart scandal refers to widespread corruption in the Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums (or CRASH) anti-gang unit of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Rampart Division in the late 1990s. More than 70 police officers either assigned to or associated with the Rampart CRASH unit were implicated in some form of misconduct, making it one of the most widespread cases of documented police misconduct in United States history. The convicted offenses include unprovoked shootings, unprovoked beatings, planting of false evidence, framing of suspects, stealing and dealing narcotics, bank robbery, perjury, and the covering up of evidence of these activities.[1]

The Rampart Scandal is notable in popular culture because at least three LAPD officers implicated in the scandal were found to be on the payroll of hip-hop mogul Marion "Suge" Knight of Death Row Records, a convicted felon with known ties to the Bloods street gang. Moreover, LAPD investigators alleged Rampart CRASH officers Nino Durden, Rafael Pérez and David Mack were involved in the 1997 drive-by murder of recording artist Notorious B.I.G..[2]

The Rampart investigation, based mainly on statements of the admitted corrupt officer (Pérez), initially implicated over 70 officers of wrongdoing. Of those officers, enough evidence was found to bring 58 before an internal administrative board. However, of the officers named by Pérez, only 24 were actually found to have committed any wrongdoing, with 12 given suspensions of various lengths, 7 forced to resign or retire, and 5 fired.[3] As a result of the probe into falsified evidence and police perjury, 106 prior criminal convictions were overturned.[4] The Rampart Scandal resulted in more than 140 civil lawsuits against the city of Los Angeles, costing the city an estimated $125 million in settlements.[5]

Partly as a result of the scandal, Police Chief Bernard Parks was not rehired by Mayor James K. Hahn in 2001. Both the scandal and the de facto firing of Parks are believed to have precipitated Mayor Hahn's defeat by Antonio Villaraigosa in the 2005 election.[6]
As of 2013 the full extent of Rampart corruption is not known, with several rape, murder and robbery investigations involving Rampart officers remaining unsolved.[7][8]

I guess Wikipedia and the Department of Justice were with Dorner when one had the entry written and the other did the investigation on the The CRASH unit.

I guess the scandal is a figment of our collective imaginations.

Reaad the bolded section with special interest. The Wiki Authors most have thought of Christopher Dorner, a yet to explode issue, when they wrote that section in particular.



Thetre is a lot of straw in that mind of yours, and a lot of black and white thinking.

LAPD needs to go under the DOJ magnifying glass AGAIN, and this is independent of the actions or lack of actions of Christopher Dorner.

Now go ahead and tell me why we were all were caught in the con again.

Let me repeat this. NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND wants to have ANY contact with the LAPD, there is a well earned hate and even fear of the Department. That includes people like me who not only live on the right side of the tracts, but 300 miles outside their jurisdiction. This started well before Christopher Doner was even in the radar, by a couple decades.

Now there is a pile of fresh straw for you o'er there!!!
