MIAMI — Two former police officers in Florida will serve a year in federal prison for framing a black teenager for burglaries he did not commit.

Court records show ex-Biscayne Park officers Charlie Dayoub and Raul Fernandez were sentenced Tuesday by a Miami federal judge.

They admitted to being part of a scheme to frame the 16-year-old so the police chief could claim a perfect rate of solving burglaries in the small city.

The judge insisted on prison for the pair despite plea deals calling for house arrest.

Former chief Raimundo Atesiano faces up to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to a more serious civil rights conspiracy charge.

Another officer will be sentenced Thursday on a similar conspiracy count.

The burglary charges against the teenager were eventually dropped.

Just another example of a young black male being oppressed in a Democrat controlled city.

The story didn't mention the political affiliation of the officers doing the framing...but its ok if you want to blame it on "Democrats"

Most americans are against police corruption no matter which party you want to blame it on.....you Trump sycophants only care if "white folks" are inconvenienced....
