Released on a Friday (aka ‘weekend dumping’), this independent investigation of the police’s shocking and abysmal response to the Charlottesville rally by former U.S. Attorney Timothy J. Heaphy should be headline news, but won’t be, primarily because it reinforces the dastardly Alt Right’s contention that police were deliberately ordered to stand down and let the vastly outnumbered Alt Right contingent get what was coming to them.
In a months long investigation, Heaphy found that “planning and coordination breakdowns” before the rally led to “disastrous results.”
