another $235,000 down the crapper...

Another day, another $235,000 down the toilet.

Today, the Minneapolis City Council has agreed to pay Derryl Jenkins the aforementioned sum for getting the crap beat out of him by Minneapolis' Paramilitary Goon Squad, aka, the Minneapolis Police.

I've ragged on the metro area cops in this blog before and I see no reason to stop.  Today, however, the video in the link to the Minneapolis StarTribune below says much more, and more eloquently, than I ever could.

Of humorous note:  at the tail end of the article, chief Tim Dolan states that he later ordered a review "of many arrests that resulted in medical treatment."

That's humorous because in my blog post from March 21 of this year [linked below], chief Dolan is noted for the extremely low percentage of officers he disciplines even after the civilian review board forwards recommendations to do so.

A last comment before the StarTribune link.  More than ever, I believe that committing a felony while wearing a gun on the job should be a capitol offense.  That's death.  Watch these morons beat the crap out of this guy and tell me you couldn't pick one or two out of the group that deserves execution.
