LMPD chief defends changes to department, says he asked mayor for more officers

and none of the people who've been fired or prosecuted were simply working or making arrests. They were sending explicit texts, stealing, having sex with underage people. There are people on the department who tell themselves and others that only rogue police dare to pat down felons loitering on a corner selling dope. In reality, they are too afraid to do the job of a law enforcement officer and have yellow straight up their spine.
