So the judge said “nah, that’s bullshit” to every claim the police attorneys made, except for the part where the kid said the cop beat the shit out of girlfriend when instead he was currently placed under a restraining order and that case hadn’t been finished yet.
Because the kid said “beat the shit out of his girlfriend” instead of “awaiting sentencing for a domestic violence charge as the aggressor with an active restraining order”, those counts can proceed. Fuck that noise still.

It’s actually because the teen said the cop was “‘convicted’ of domestic abuse.” when that wasn’t the case.
It is still a clear cut case of police intimidating someone who called out their BS, but it is a legally valid claim of defamation.
Thank you for the correction. Commenting doesn’t make going back to the article easy on mobile. Definitely upsetting that’s not considered “close enough” like the rest of his speech.
