Police scandals rock Louisville, Kentucky

LMPD badge

With the news of police department’s under increased scrutiny because of alleged abuse of power and brutality charges, one would think that departments would begin to tighten up on bad behavior. That may be the case everywhere else but Louisville, Kentucky. In eight days the department has been rocked with scandal after scandal. The situations that have occurred have not been minor either: drunk driving, shoplifting, abuse of prisoners and mass illegal searches at a nightclub.
