Aurora PD Found Guilty of Excessive Force and Systemic Racism.
Colorado’s Department of Law completed a 14 month investigation and found that the Aurora PD uses excessive force and racially biased practices.
The Department of Law is recommending the city enter into a consent decree to change its policies, training, record keeping and hiring practices and will require the city to pay an independent monitor to update its progress to courts and the public on how it is implementing changes.
So the dishonorable cops are on the honor system? Should work!

Boxing PPV is a Total Dud, Fails to Sell Enough to Pay Purses
Maybe it was a bad idea to hold a PPV on September 11th, and maybe Holyfield isn’t a big enough draw, and having Trump sign on to announce the event didn’t help either. The event only grabbed 150 k purchases, not even enough to pay everyone. By comparison, Tyson’s fight last year netted over 1.6 million PPV buys.
Well at least it did better than Trump Steaks. Or the Taj Mahal
Per sources, #HolyfieldBelfort event totaled about 150k PPV buys between linear & digital platforms, which would make it a massive $ loser for Triller. At 150k it would gross about $7.5M from ppv, not remotely close to covering even the purses, not to mention rest of expenses.

“You fucking asshole, Jimmy Kimmel. Honestly Jimmy, fuck you, bro.”
Jake maybe he was talking about Rand Paul.
