"Chanin did point out that there are more than 600 police officers in Oakland, and most of them do a good job." When we talk about bad apples, it's because there is data. I bet you a lot more of them knew about it but kept quiet.

the coverage doesn't get into much specifics which I understand given the audience, but the core allegation here is that an FAA Aviation Safety Inspector signed off on two checkrides he never gave and two that didn't include required maneuvers this is OUTRAGEOUS
