So says Green Tree [Pennsylvania] Council President Mark Sampogna. As reported in The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:
Green Tree officials said they will not pursue any disciplinary action against police Chief Andrew Lisiecki for his conduct while on prostitution detail last month.
In the letter to Pittsburgh Police Chief Nate Harper and the Allegheny County Chiefs of Police Association, District Attorney Stephen A. Zappala Jr. said the Pennsylvania court determined that it is not necessarily inappropriate for police officers to take off their clothes during such investigations.
Media reports and a criminal complaint revealed that the chief allegedly took off his clothes during an undercover investigation during a sting operation on Sept. 9 at the Radisson Green Tree.Oh the humanity! The poor man had to get naked in bed with a woman! We already know who to blame for this.
"The fact is that the prostitutes are extremely aware of the laws and know precisely how to avoid arrest" [said Mr. Sampogna].
"What is required for an arrest and conviction is an overt act that unfortunately may require the officer to disrobe. As distasteful as this may seem, the judicial system has created these levels of proof," he said.What's distasteful is the imposition of one's morals on others. (Yes, of course it should be regulated, for everyone's protection.) But hey, it's the law. So violate it at your peril. The more relevant law though? The law of supply and demand. Here's the source.
