My Way News - Veteran LA police detective charged with murder
AP reports: "A veteran detective was charged with murder Monday in the slaying of her ex-boyfriend's wife in 1986 - a crime she apparently kept secret while rising through the ranks at the Los Angeles Police Department."

Comment: When people we expect to represent justice are actually criminals, I think that is a special class of wickedness that deserves to be noted. Is it up there with genocide? Probably not, but it's a fundamental betrayal, not just of the people they wronged, but of the entire society they pledged to protect.
