Officer should lose all

Sat., May 4, 2013

I read the April 26 story about the latest officer to be charged in the Otto Zehm case. I can’t understand why the city allows him to resign, and in that way retain his retirement. He should be fired and have nothing like the rest of us would have if we had done this.

Why the special treatment for a cop who lied? Also, the female officer should lose her job too for her part in the mess.

Let’s clean this city up and move forward.
