13265882, In this week's edition of Blue Lies Matter - Philip Brailsford

I was listening to my news feed a couple of weeks ago...when another officer involved shooting in Mesa AZ came across the report

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/robert-johnson-beaten-mesa-arizona-police-department-speaks-out-today-2018-06-07/

Some may remember the incident in Mesa a few years ago where a man was murdered in a hotel hallway while complying with orders to kneel and crawl

https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/mesa/2018/03/08/mesa-police-confirm-justice-department-investigating-shooting-officer/409331002/

That lead me to officer Philip Brailsford

Turns out...dude had a history of transgressions, which if acted upon, could have potentially stopped the murder from happening in the first place

+1 This guys dad, also named Philip Brailsford, was a lieutenant in the Mesa PD's Internal Affairs Unit

So when somebody says...not all cops are bad cops...let them know about Philip Brailsford.
