More likely the state attorney general's announcement that a grand jury would look into the death of Daniel Prude is the reason. One look at the evidence leaves the viewer with one inescapable fact, the police fucked up big time. When this happens the top brass is faced with a decision of backing the officers in question and keeping the support of the force or keeping quiet and letting the courts decide. It's a lose lose situation for the chief and his immediate staff. It they have the years in for retirement, it's best to turn in your papers and get the fuck out. Major reform is coming to police departments across the country and the old guard is not going like the changes.
