Detective Tom Murphy spoke during the council’s public comment period, a week after Sheline and Councilor Linda Scott announced the formation of the committee on the heels of two public forums on the topic.
Murphy said “certain politicians” are trying to “pit the community against the Police Department,” and are “spinning a tragic situation into a political game for their reelections.”
“We are not your enemy,” he said. “We only care about the well-being of this city and its safety.”
The 8,104,472,684 memories I have of the cops brutalizing people, murdering people, abducting people to blacksites, and running people over with cars has determined that is a lie.
