DC: Another Spokane Cop Acts Badly

Sgt. Brad “To the Bone” Thoma has dodged criminal prosecution for his boozed-up, off-duty hit-and-run. This the latest episode in Spokane’s ongoing law enforcement soap opera – “The Drunk and the Clueless.” Well, there are two sides to every story, as my sweet momma always taught me. So let’s all relax a moment while I take my usual fair-and-balanced look at both sides of this case. Then we can form into an angry mob and storm the Public Safety Building with corkscrews and flaming brandy snifters/Doug Clark, SR. More here.

Question: Why does the Spokane Police Department have so many bad apples?
