“Cenk Uygur (http://www.twitter.com/cenkuygur) host of The Young Turks discusses the racist text messages four Ft. Lauderdale, Florida police officers sent to each other.
Jason Holding, James Wells, and Christopher Sousa were cops, until they took it too far and the chief had to take them off the case; permanent! Because they were racists. The three cops have been fired and a fourth, Alex Alvarez, has been suspended in an investigation of the Ft. Lauderdale police department. And they would have gotten away with it too if it weren’t for those meddling five month internal affairs investigations. The investigation found prolonged misconduct in the department and it is possible there could be even more firings as the extent of the racism becomes apparent.”
Was this an acceptable punishment for these officers? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
