Interestingly enough, that was part of what decided the case. The state police didn't follow their disciplinary procedures within the timeframes provided in the procedures. This was taken as evidence that they didn't really believe that there was a serious risk of public harm from having this guy continue to be a cop.

It's more like some politican is covering his ass.
