Yeah, from what I've read her brother in law who was the troooper should've been fired. Drinking beer in his squad car, using a taser on an 11 year old. Drunk driving. He was not a good person.
However, it wasn't the trooper who was fired. The person who was fired was the guy who chose NOT to fire her brother in law. And he chose not to do so in spite of pressure from the Governor's office. And was then fired because he didn't carry out her wishes.
So the allegation is that he was fired because he didn't carry out her order to fire her brother in law from the force. That is a little more problematic I think.
