Crooked cop couldn’t remember the Miranda Rights and threw a pizza party to celebrate… This story gets worse with every new revelation.

    Absolutely despicable! Thank you for summarizing all of these details, this story has such sprawl it’s difficult to capture just how all the issues factor into one another anymore. Really hope that justice starts to play out in the long term, but I’m not convinced that will happen on account of the corruption emanating from the State; the Kansas Bureau of Investigation decided to involve CBI in the matter, indicating the rot likely permeates much of the state bureaucracy as well.

    There’s also the attempt to undermine Kansas’ 2016 Open Records Act in preventing the release of pertinent communications by officials and court records during and shortly before the raid (which many anti-transparency activists in the Kansas GOP are trying to use to get rid of the KORA (1 and 2)).
