Some small part of me dislikes that decent officers are "slandered" by the bad apples, and that they must continually apologize for those apples' presence in the police force.
Still, officers really do need to publicly make statements like this, and I'm glad to see that in this case, they have.

Perhaps they should have been working on this all along, instead of just going nutso and deciding to DISBAND the police department.

What they've done, or tried to do in the past you have no idea of.
Remember, the police dept polices itself. And if the city council did this in the past, you would have called it a knee jerk reaction.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
