Woman wrongly charged in officer’s traffic death set to sue Phoenix

Things need to change with CPS, also. Did you know that Levoy Finchem, who committed federal felony crimes at both Bundy Ranch and at the Oregon Bird Sanctuary was under federal investigation before the feds killed him? And he made his living off of being a foster parent for 20 kids at a time, and his wife was involved by supporting and benefitting from his psychosis. But even after the Bundy Ranch Standoff, CPS still allowed those foster kids to remain under his care, and with his wife after he was killed. Their only reasons for fostering was so neither had to work, and to indoctrinate vulnerable children. That's dangerous, and I bet his wife is still fostering. CPS workers lack the same moral compass as the police, and they sleep in the same bed.

He rounded a curve just as another driver was pulling out from a stop sign. The cop avoided a collision by swerving off the road. He hit a tree and was killed. He was not wearing a seatbelt (this fact was covered up in the investigation). Likely, if he were wearing his seatbelt he would have walked away from the accident. The other driver was charged and convicted. He never had a chance because they were determined that someone else would be found at fault for the accident. They ruined that poor guy's life.
