Just this one got caught? It's the tactic that police do in "certain neighborhoods" on "certain people" that involves planting drugs on someone to falsify a arrest and make themselves look better. They do this all across the country. Cops = criminal, and criminal = cops. They're all in the same bag.

I think what sets this case apart is that the police were doing the manufacturing of the drugs as well. Also notable is that it was publicly known that they were manufacturing and selling crack for 4 years before they were made to stop, which is quite unusual.

You come in here with your having read the article and your understanding the context. I come to the comments for knee jerk hyperbole, thank you very much.
