Law Enforcement:
(1) The FBI is investigating solely because a location returned big verdicts. I hope there is more to this than the article indicates. Otherwise, it appears to be intimidation.
(2) Good gracious. It looks like Danville promoted half of its police force.
(3) Is there any difference between CSI and real forensic scientists?
(4) 2 tons of marijuana go to the feds to prosecute.
(5) 4 years later, after the Crown refused to prosecute, an inquest "decided that police officers used dangerous, excessive and unlawful force restraining Roger Sylvester, a vulnerable and mentally ill young man, in the prone or three-quarters prone position for some 15-20 minutes until he stopped breathing."
