LAPD Officer Killed During Training Exercise Was Investigating Cops About Rape
Lots of speculation and innuendo in that article.<p>- Officer Tipping wasn’t investigating rape, but simply took the victim statement.<p>- The officer in the training exercise that killed Officer Tipping has the same name as the officer in Tipping’s report, but they are not sure if it is the same person.<p>- The medical examiner ruled the killing an accident. The article then quotes a tweet that says medical examiners undercount murders by police, implying collusion or coverup.<p>- There is no recording of the training. The article states that often video recordings are made, implying a cover up.<p>Abuse of power by the police is heinous. They are supposed to be our protectors, so I hate it as much as the next person.<p>But we must be led by fact not belief or we are no better than those who believe the Big Lie.
