This is on the high end (most are around $1M/year) but typical for DOJ independent investigators in other jurisdictions.
Independent investigators are expensive.

And then they take all that coke home with em and vacuum the **** up. White for white I guess.

These racists must have no soul. How can they sleep at night knowing they ruined the lives of multiple black men?

When people say institutionalized racism and hierarchical racism... THIS is what they are talking about.

No one cares about the "black person called me a cracker, blacks are just as racist" sophomoric argument.

When black people are able to do this to white people on a legislative and governance level, then we can have a discussion about black on white racism. Until then, I don't wanna hear ****.

The fact that they specifically targeted black males without records is so sinister.

Intentionally ruining the lives of innocent men just because they're black.

It's sickening.

Hows the war on drugs going? If you didn't vote for Ron Paul, the only candidate who wanted to end the racist war on drugs, I don't wanna hear ****.
People are their own worst enemy often enough.

I thought this bs thread had been sent to the trash bin where it belongs.


Even the Southern Poverty Law Center decided not to be connected to the phony story, retracting and deleting its link to the nutjob's allegations:

"We received new information from people we trust around Alabama that we should be highly suspect of the reporting and then made the decision that we didn't want to keep the story out there under our account. We never saw or claimed to have seen any link to a hate group in the story."

There's a guy in my city who blogs about corruption based on 'sources,' otherwise known as the voices in his head. Fortunately, nothing he's written went viral.

Planted on 1000 black men. I would think that after the first 100 or so times they planted the drugs, it would get peoples attention.

Whose attention? Prosecutors? Average joes? Some criminal is claiming he is innocent and set up? 100 criminals? They all say they are innocent.

Who are you going to believe? Some or lots of low life's or decorated law enforcement officers?

If true everyone of them needs to go to jail. I always thought cops and the judicial sytem should be held to higher standard in court. I'd be all in favor of applying very lengthy sentences in these types of cases, perhaps a mandatory sentence double that of the accused.

Maybe this was an exaggeration but if so it only slightly offsets the decades of corrupt actions that people never paid attention to by law enforcement.
