Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsThe Chief of Police in North Charleston SC said that he
considered the police officers under him as his "children". And then asked how would one feel if this happened to anyone's child. What?! Is he running a daycare? Little Jimmy got caught with his hand in a cookie jar?! What about the man who is someone's child that the Police Chief's nursery attendee murdered? How do you think the parents and family feel. Thank jeebus for video.! If this "chief" ran his department as a place where adults worked and treated them like adults with adult consequences maybe his employees wouldn't commit murder. This shit is going to get worse before it gets better. I just hope there are major changes to keep other unnecessary murders by policemen from happening.
