53 Philly drug convictions nixed amid police probe



The Associated Press
Posted:  11/08/2013 12:53:13 PM PST

PHILADELPHIA—A judge has thrown out 53 drug convictions connected to a Philadelphia narcotics police officer who is facing federal corruption charges.

Judge Sheila Woods-Skipper, during a hearing Friday, tossed the convictions, which were based on the testimony of former Officer Jeffrey Walker.

The 22-year veteran of the force was arrested in May following an FBI sting. Authorities allege he plotted about ripping off drug dealers with an unnamed person who turned out to be an FBI informant.

Investigators said Walker planted drugs in a suspected dealer's car outside a west Philadelphia bar and he and the informant later left the suspected dealer's home with $15,000 cash and marijuana.
Walker is due in federal court for a hearing on Nov. 20.

Fucking scumbag abusing his authority. It's not like he's the only one, either. Unfortunately, this turn of events may be too shocking to some for them to expect it to happen again.

Still, with any luck, perhaps this event will help internal affairs or whatnot will get the idea that corruption is still alive and breathing and remind them that it's their job to snuff it back out.
