Do the police have a template where they just fill in the new date? After reading the story, I am astonished that anyone could say this with a straight face:

No officers were found to be at fault for their lack of investigation or their alleged use of excessive force.

“The officers acted appropriately and in an objectively reasonable manner given the active resistance by Cox, and the number, action, and demeanor of the crowd of people who had formed in the close proximity of the arrest,” wrote Police Chief Paul Hartinger in a press release.

What is wrong with these people? We hear this day after day after day, and there is never any accountability.
