I don't really see how the cops did anything wrong by withholding information. Sure, they did other stuff wrong (crowd control, for example). But, what's the first thing that an attorney tells his/her client when they've been involved in some potentially criminal action (especially if they are the one who may be accused of the crime)?
"Don't talk to anyone but me. Especially, don't talk to the press."
They should have said, "The officer has been placed on administrative leave [desk duty/whatever]. We will not make any further comments as this is an ongoing investigation."

What did they ever do to that cop that killed that big black guy by using a choke hold for selling cigarettes?
The hardest part of doing nothing is knowing when your done.

But, we need "JUSTICE"!!
Since when has "justice" meant "let's convict and sentence the accused before he's even arrested"?
