RSS icon Comments on City Loses Appeal, Must Pay $268,000 to Settle Police Misconduct Suit

Just another case that shows the glaring incompetence of Tom Carr the City Attorney, how the Police abuse their power, and how The Mayor and Council fail to do their jobs in providing leadership to make sure this shit stops happening.

At some point people just need to fight back. Props to Bradford for doing so in court. The award should come directly out of Carr, Kerlikowske and Nickel's pockets.

Cops learn they're not gods, round 4,762.

Will the guilty cops be fired? Or even reprimanded? Doubtful.

no big deal -- money runs like a river thru the city council

is it just my mind aflame with anger about how many homeless youth could be helped with a $500,00 budget boost?

our council needs to yell to the cops -- this is out of control, cut the crap, this is taxpayer money that could be put to better use

but they won't

the weakest council in the history of Seattle

Hell yeah, Bradford! Meanwhile the police guild worked out a deal to give themselves huge raises. Ridiculous.

@4,

Or at least since 1996.

It always makes me happy to see Stafford Frey Cooper be in the news for losing, as they were the worst employer I've ever had.

#7 EX-SFC, just out of curiosity, what made SFC such a lousy place to work?
