Why would normal cops permit leadership to be so corrupt as to obey “stand down” orders in investigating a murder??? Cops are as corrupt as the political idiots in power?
I had several relatives in Law enforcement and they all changed soon after graduating from POST school. Brain washed ?, Im not sure, but they all have a “brotherhood” mentality, and would cover up each other’s law infringement such as speeding, DUI (plenty of times) disturbing the peace etc. But they would handcuff their own grandma for a promotion. Not all are like that, but probably the majority.....just following orders.
