"Sheriff Chris Nanos told the Sentinel that he was not aware of his department's written policies regarding 'reasonable access' for reporters at crime scenes."
Yeah, right.
And then, when media asked for a copy of the policy, the Sheriff's department intentionally left out the part that allows reporters to be at crime scenes!
#FTP #ACAB. Fucking bastards.
