The Philadelphia Inquirer continues the reporting on a disturbing story we began to share with you recently about alleged corruption within the Camden Police department that has caused people to be released without an explanation. There are so many disturbing stories and potential quotes to choose from in this piece, but I went with the one at the very end of the story on the consequences of it all:The hardest part, though, may be renewing confidence in the criminal justice system.
"If the police are no different from the thugs, who are we supposed to depend on when we need help?" Mills said. That's a good question. Granted, it's not all police. But that's similar to how all politicians fight the corruption meme because of the actions of a few. How do you restore the public trust when innocent people have been framed and served time for nothing more than being in the wrong place, at the wrong time to be busted by the wrong people. |
