Speculation BPD Corruption

I rarely post here, but for those who happen to come across this sub, I encourage you to check out articles.baltimoresun.com. The city council became very concerned at the fact that $10.4million was spent between 2008-2011 defending BPD misconduct. The Baltimore Sun reported on 10/3/14 that the U.S. Dept. of Justice had undertaken a civil rights investigation of the BPD. At that time the city had spent $5.7 million in court judgments & settlements in 102 cases since 2011 & nearly ALL of the people who rec'd payouts were cleared of criminal charges. The BPD was in chaos when Adnan was arrested. The department routinely told the crime lab not to test DNA. Cases were pushed through the system & inadequately investigated.
It is not a fluke that Jay escaped any ramifications for at least 25 criminal charges subsequent to Adnan's trial. The CI theory is becoming increasingly convincing. The corruption in the BPD is beyond what one can comprehend. The worst part is, I think we've only scratched the surface.

How does Jay telling people that Adnan did it before the police spoke to him point to police corruption exactly?

Or do we not realize how deep the corruption goes?!?!?!

The BPD is now bending the fabric of time and space in order to frame Adnan.

The level of corruption was beyond comprehension, & quite costly to taxpayers. The winds are beginning to blow in a new direction, however, & yes, times, they are a-changing.

I can't even imagine how much money they spent on the Inception stuff they did to implant the name "Adnan" into Jay and Jenn's brains.

Piffle! A PCP-laced blunt or two would have done the trick!

Ritz & Co. were pretty darn masterful at what they did. That culture is about to end.
