MODERATORS
It isn't even noted until the very end of the article that this woman, the dead man, and the house full of drunk people who drove there after getting fucked up at the bar were all police officers. This is the reporting bias that people talk about when they talk about police coverage in the media.
She isn't, but you're right the others involved were. The trial itself didn't exactly paint them in a great light. The lead investigator texted that he was going through her phone looking for nudes, the security footage from Canton PD somehow happened to become mirror imaged yet weirdly the timestamps weren't, the entire investigation itself was an absolute shit show (red solo cups are totally fine for blood evidence, right?) the homeowner (cop) got rid of his dog, destroyed his phone, refloored his basement (possible crime scene), sold the house for $50k under value, and according to him "butt dialed" a potential co-conspirator during sex with his wife at 2am while a dead man was on his lawn. Said butt dialed was "butt answered" according to the ATF agent he was calling who then butt hung up before butt dialing him back.
