-Caveat Lector- Dave Hartley http://www.Asheville-Computer.com/dave >From Drudge: LA TIMES: LA POLICE CORRUPTION SCANDAL MAY AFFECT 3000 CASES According to publishing sources, the LOS ANGELES TIMES is fronting a blockbuster in Wednesday runs revealing that "Los Angeles County District Attorney Gil Garcetti and Public Defender Michael Judge have vastly increased their estimates of the number of convictions that need to be reviewed as a result of the city police scandal, and both now say they will need more resources to handle what could be more than 3,000 questionable cases." The previous estimate was 500. The TIMES' Henry Weinstein reports that Garcetti has already put seven prosecutors on the case full time reviewing trouble cases -- but that number could multiply shortly. Los Angeles law enforcement is coping with what is being called the 'Rampart Scandal' -- dirty cops in the city's Rampart Divison's anti-gang unit accused of illegally beating, shooting and framing individuals for no apparent reason. So far, four inmates have been released as a result of the investigation -- and seven no longer in custody are looking to have their convictions cleared. Judge believes that the scandal will take years to unravel: "People who saw `L.A. Confidential' and said it could never happen now were wrong." DEVELOPING...
