The Mollen Commission found that officers in the “Dirty 30” routinely engaged in perjury, record falsification, thefts during searches and seizures, and distribution of narcotics.</p><p><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AbolishPrisonsAbolishPolice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AbolishPrisonsAbolishPolice</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/prosecutorialmisconduct" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>prosecutorialmisconduct</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/EndQualifiedImmunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EndQualifiedImmunity</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://innocenceproject.org/jabar-walker-exonerated-after-25-years-of-wrongful-conviction-in-manhattan-double-homicide/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">innocenceproject.org/jabar-wal</span><span class="invisible">ker-exonerated-after-25-years-of-wrongful-conviction-in-manhattan-double-homicide/</span></a></p>
