Video: Sgt Dorsey Speak Reveals Why Former NYPD Officer Daniel Pantaleo Was Actually Fired

For those of you who don't want to sit through the video, Sgt Dorsey indicates that the police commioner was forced to fired Pantaleo because he was found to be 'ineffective' due to him having lied when he said that he didn't choke Eric Garner.

She then goes on to explain that because it's documented that he lied then he can no longer perform his duties as a police officer because he has no credibility. He cannot testify in court and all some 300 of he arrests he had previous made are now suspect. He also indicates that revelation in theory will prevent him for obtaining work as a police officer elsewhere.

Sgt Dorsey compared Pantaleo's situation to other officers who have been fired for wrongfully shooting & killing suspects in violation of policy presumably, yet were able to go to another department and continue their careers as police officers, or in some cases are still on the force with LAPD.

I gathered from the video that the reason it took almost 5 years to get to this point was they were apparently hoping to run out the 5 year statute of limitations by keeping everything in-house but once the citizen's review board got involved, then could no longer keep things under wraps and the commissioner essentially had to act on the knowledge they had been sitting on all this time.
 
Officer was fired because he was white and the perp was black. All about optics and PC politics. The man was committing a crime and refused to comply with the law enforcement officers direct orders.
