6 Salt Lake City police officers are now under investigation after an arrest that took place in 2019
The reason it took about three-and-a-half years for the department to open this case is because that’s how long a witness has been trying to get a copy of the body camera video. He finally got it, and that’s when the Chief Mike Brown decided to place the officers on leave.
Officers said they also found methamphetamine and scales to weigh those drugs with Mason, who had a few scratches but never filed a complaint. "It’s very reactionary," said Rich Lewis, a retired captain with the Salt Lake City Police Department."I think that a lot of the officers feel like they’re behind a curtain. Leaders on the fourth floor or the chief's office are behind the curtain doing things without letting them know.""Why are we putting them on leave now?" he asks.
