*sigh* Police scandals continue in the U.S. A Georgia man allegedly committed suicide while in custody and no video camera footage exists (similar to Jeffrey Epstein's death)

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) —
The Savannah Police Department said Monday that it has fired five officers in connection with the death of a man who authorities say killed himself while left alone in a police interview room.
The department confirmed the firings after they were first announced by an attorney for the family of the man who died, 60-year-old William Harvey, following a private meeting with Savannah Mayor Van Johnson and Police Chief Roy Minter.
Harvey was found dead April 3 at police headquarters, where he was being questioned in connection with an aggravated assault. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation released preliminary findings of its investigation April 16, saying evidence showed Harvey died after hanging himself with his own shoe laces while left alone in the interview room.
In a statement Monday, Savannah police said two officers — Sgt. Michael Kerr and Cpl. Silver Leuschner — were fired for policy violations related to Harvey’s interview.

It is a tragedy but I don't see any writing so it must have been a white guy the National Guard will not need to be called out and we won't have minority businesses destroyed like what usually happens.

LTC (Join to see) - That's completely racist. Not that it's relevant to the story, but Harvey is black.
You should not be an officer.
