This is pathetic.
Supporting Black Lives Matter shouldn’t be a fireable offense especially after George Floyd was murdered.
Here are the details.
A Massachusetts police detective who posted a photo of her niece at a Black Lives Matter protest — holding a sign that advocated shooting police officers — has been fired, according to a new report.
Rookie Springfield Detective Florissa Fuentes — who had just joined the department last year — was fired last month, weeks after she posted the image to her personal Instagram page while off duty, The Republican reported.
Fuentes removed the post and said she took advice from the Springfield Police Patrolmen’s Association president, Officer Joseph Gentile, to post an apology on the union’s Facebook page.
Police Commissioner Cheryl Clapprood fired her from the force on June 19.
“That post was hurtful to many of her co-workers,” Clapprood told the outlet, adding that Fuentes was still on probation and the social media post marked her second issue during her time with the department.
It is more hurtful when cops brutalize minorities where are we going to get a statement about that.
