Man these entire police departments that are involved like this need to be prosecuted for accessory and conspirators in these crimes just like in the case in Chicago.

Take note legislators and public. The state registry did NOT prevent these crimes by public employees . Further proof the registry is a sham policy draining taxes and state budget.
Massive waste of money like the Vietnam war and Iraq war.
California. Tear down this registry.

These other goons should be charged with accessory after the fact for the bribery and coercion of the witness under the color of authority. Anyone involved should be removed from the government payroll and placed on a web site that shows they were participating in the cover up of a sex crime. Anyone else would be shown no mercy but to have this all ironed out is too simple. Justice demands all participants pay for their involvement and conspiracy. More heads need to roll to demonstrate decency but don’t hold your breath. These same minions are ready with cash in hand to silence more victims and witnesses as demonstrated by this sad case.

Let’s hope the victims are at least financially compensated to the tune of hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars each.

I’m telling ya I’m teetering on the edge. All the inequality in this country in every aspect is really pushing the envelope of what people are going to indure. These people were all conspirators and acomplises of the crime and need to be held accountable.
