135% sure it's race, not corruption that's the issue.

Just to clarify for this particular instance, all of the involved parties are of one particular race.

And if armchair social justice warriors would just take 30 seconds out of their day to use google:

"McCray, the incumbent mayor Darren Brown, City Attorney James Robinson, many of the police officers in video footage of the event, and approximately 94% of the city's population is African American."

Population: 299.  High school class presidents have larger constituencies than this, with just as much drama and shenanigans.

Most of Kinloch was cannibalized by St. Louis when the latter bought up a ton of private property in the former in order to expand STL airport.

Yeah, Kinloch probably ought to be merged with a neighboring community, but right now none of them would want it with all the problems it has.

I don't get the suspension bit. Who has the power to do that? Hopefully she will seek an injunction, and be awarded attorneys' fees, and then fire the city attorney, who in most towns serves at the pleasure of the mayor. I would file an ethics complaint too, against the attorney, if he has no colorable claim for the advice he gave. And then she should be able to appoint the police commissioner, and get the police chief fired.

Because the OP had a snit and deleted it himself before leaving.
