Comments on Advance Indiana™: Feds Probing IMPD

Bill, Very interesting. Some of us skeptics thought the busts being carried out by IMPD were all a big front to head off the federal investigation. What you just shared confirms my worse suspicions. Hopefully, the feds will nail the people responsible.

HFFT you are right about pea shakes. Funny that you would mention it - a bunch of them were just dismissed in court 18 because the cop who got the search warrant had been indicted by the feds.

I agree with atrtfuggins on the prosecutors office. Brizzi has been less than honest as a prosecutor.
He is part of the machine that needs it's wheels "greased" from time to time and someone needs to wipe off the excess grease!

melyssa... whats the big deal about the meeting on the 8th?
Pea shakes have been "investigated" for years. Too much $$$$ changing hands for certain people to NOT look the other way!

Indiana Barrister is saying that pea shakes are investigated. I've never really known either Advance Indiana or Indiana Barrister to be wrong on these types of rumors.

They need to take a long deep look at the prosecutor's office also.

EVERYONE and I mean everyone needs to be at the CC budget hearing on Sept 8.

7th CD, after what the Mayor allowed Bob Grand with regard to the Venture contract, do Republicans really have standing to complain about anything the Democrats have done in this city? That's about as bad as they come.

Propaganda, started by rumors, backed up by innuendos.
If they investigating, I wonder if they were tipped off by the same people who covered up things for 8 years? How many of these cooked officers have been on the dept for more than 1.5 but less than 8 years?

Why don't the feds look into the real crimes in Indy? Monroe Gray, Vernon Brown, Aaron Haith, Beth White, Bart Peterson, André Carson,et. al...

I know a guy who ticked off an city cop and suddenly found himself followed by cops every time he got behind the wheel. He ended up with 4 DUIs in a very short period of time. Only one of the four charges are backed by a chemical test. During the last arrest they drove him around for an hour and tried to stick his head through a windshield before he was brought in.

The person accused the cops of misconduct and threatened to sue. Two years later he's still being held in jail without ever being tried on the charges. He has a speedy trial motion on 3 of the 4 cases. The judge ignores it as well as the other time deadlines of Criminal Rule 4. On one case alone he has had 24 pre-trials!!!

Because of this and several other major procedural flaws, the Prosecutor's Office has to know they they have no chance of having any conviction upheld on appeal. Yet they continue with the cases. They are perfectly content on leaving this poor guy in jail without a trial.

Oh, did I forget to mention that the judge is a former cop himself?

It is sooo very sad when the IMPD gets an article in the World Net Daily, http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=73358 and TalkLeft http://www.talkleft.com/story/2008/8/25/132549/699.

Talk about bad press.
