The thing is, if the officers had all been honest they probably would
have gotten a conviction it sounds like. Instead they attempted to
embellish it so they could try to get the guy the harshest punishment
they could. And of course, if you get caught in one lie or
contradictory statement it tends to make ALL your statements suspect.
Those officers that lied and/or embellished their statements are more
responsible for that not guilty verdict than anyone else. How does it
feel to know that you guys are responsible for that guy going free?
