So basically, the police chief fabricated charges to raid and seize everything from the local newspaper. Rights were violated and the elderly co-owner of the newspaper died of a heart attack after arguing with the police who were destroying her life. All because of a tyrant cop with nothing better to do but abuse his power.

Everyone hops on board with the police chief: a sheriff, multiple county attorneys, and a judge.

The fucking audacity.

Fontana pays nearly $900,000 for ‘psychological torture’ inflicted by police to get false confession

Just want to point out to folks that both the bureau chief and the division chief of the Maricopa County Attorney's Office were okay with this dishonest prosecutor charging people with felonies based on fabricated information. The prosecutor was fired, and the two chiefs resigned after the story blew up.

Still unclear: Why was the Gilbert Police Department involved? 🤔

This is one of those things that nobody really knows about, but when they learn of it, everyone thinks it's bonkers and should be illegal.
