Baltimore F.O.P. President Bob Cherry. Don’t let the smile fool you. Bob and his members are worried federal oversight is going to make the problem worse.
As the US Dept. of Justice gears up to investigate allegations of brutality, Baltimore F.O.P. President Bob Cherry says the federal investigation could wind up making matters worse. F.O.P. leaders say that if cops are worried about the feds looking over their shoulder they’ll be less inclined to fight crime and that would make the city less safe.
F.O.P. Vice President Gene Ryan says it’s already happening about officers shying away from doing their jobs. “Why should they get out of the cars?” Ryan asked.
