Police officer accused of beating videographer fired

Well, well, once in a while a victim gets a reprieve. Couple of interesting quotes:

"It raises serious questions about whether the officer used good judgment and whether he was properly trained,"

"The officer had been on paid suspension since April 1."

"eight-month investigation ... investigators concluded in July" <-- let's see - 5 more months for the brass to fire his ass!

"A Review-Journal examination of all police shootings in Clark County since 1990 found that officers who use their guns sometimes show a pattern of questionable behavior beforehand or land in serious trouble after."
