The article says the officers got promoted.

I'm not sure why this comment was killed. A heading in the ABC 11 article is literally "Officers involved were later promoted". The text of the article later goes on to say

> Months after the interrogation, Guthrie was named a 2019 Employee of the Year for the Fontana Police Department.

> Guthrie is now a sergeant. So is Janusz.

> And Michael Dorsey, the lieutenant who Guthrie says told him and Janusz that officers believed Perez Jr. had killed his father, has been promoted to captain and is now chief of police of Fontana, overseeing 188 sworn officers, according to its website.

The system working as intended.

This is the hierarchy of competence I keep hearing about.

The underlying thing folks miss is - competence in what. Near as I can tell, they were quite competent in what city leadership wanted.
The Chinese have the right to complain about their leaders. We don't because we choose them willingly.

Crime goes down, the poors don't riot and that's all that matters.

Don’t blame me, I voted for Kodos!

I mean technically Russia does have elections.
