At yesterday's news conference, the LVPD Under Sheriff said that there would be a thorough investigation and that it would take time to review tape, interview witnesses, etc. Now they have apparently decided that Bennett is lying?
I have only seen partial video of the arrest. I would like to see video of the full incident; him running, the police taking him down, cuffing him and walking him to the patrol car. That will tell what really happened.
Personally, I think the LVPD letter shows a lot of bias in the way that it starts off with a shot at the NFL "condoning" Bennett not standing for the national anthem. I don't like that he sits either, but it seems a bit much for them to put that in the letter. Like I said in my first post, this is going to be interesting to watch it play out. Somebody is not being truthful.
