Purge the Mayor's office and State Attorney. Fire them both. Criminal charges might also be placed against both of them.Purge the Baltimore PD!
That's the solution to cops who think they are above the law according to
"Neill Franklin... the executive director of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, otherwise known as LEAP. He's a 33-year police veteran whose led multi-jurisdictional anti-narcotics task forces for the Maryland state police and ran training centers for the Baltimore Police Department and the Maryland State Police."
In this ~20 minute interview with TRNN's Stephen Janis, Franklin has a two step solution to Baltimore's rogue cops:
"FRANKLIN: Well, I--you know, something, there's a word that has been ringing in my head ever since Monday, a couple Mondays ago, when all of this started up at Mondawmin with the, our young people uprising, and--. The word that was used to kind of like, it was said, that was passed around, I think it was on Instagram, was 'purge'. They were going to purge. Well, how about we purge the police department?
Here's what I mean. It's come to my attention--I don't know if this is true or not--but that some police officers may be considering leaving since the State's Attorney announced the charges being placed on the six officers in the Freddie Gray case.
"Okay, let them leave.
"They're not committed anyway. If they want to leave it's clear to me that they're not committed.
"Go ahead and leave.
"Purge number two. We know that the State's Attorney's Office has a list of officers who have perjured themselves on the stand. Internal Affairs has a list of officers--or if they don't have an exact list, they can go through some files and find officers--who have lied on reports.
"Critical reports, like application for statement of charges. Probable cause statements. These are court documents. Official documents. If you've lied on the stand, if you perjure yourself in any of those instances, okay, how about we fire you. Because you're no good to us."
