Chief Lanier is a liar -- all incidents involving Lts or above the Chief is notified. The search warrant was obtained almost a week prior to the raid...Lanier transferred Captain Harris and Lt WIlkins and detailed JJ Brennan after the raid... if she wasn't notified as she alleges -- why didn't she demote Inspector Bray, the supervisor of that Unit??? And when Captain Gresham's rental property became the subject of an investigation, shouldn't that have been passed onto a federal agency that did not have an ax to grind with the Captain? Most of those individuals to include Sgt JJ Brennan integrity was impugned during investigtions in which Captain Gresham conducted, supervised or had knowledge of ... remember these are the same cast of characters that cannot testify in court, cannot remember to properly handle evidence, have been accused in court of sodomizing citizens Lover vs DC and have used citizen's property as their own -- gee, no retaliation here???!!?!? Lanier is LYING again
