City Attorney: No comment

Yesterday, I left messages with Deputy City Attorney Becky Jo Peterson-Buie about Seth Cohen's comments in this story. This afternoon, Peterson-Buie left a message on my voice mail with the following comment:

"The city of Greensboro does not comment on pending litigation."

This afternoon, I filed a public information request with the city asking for the following pieces of information:

* Copies of the CAD report Scott Sanders generated to create the 19 names of the officers listed in the “black book.”

* The names of the 19 black officers who were working the day and time the alleged sexual assault occurred.

* The two-page memo Tom Fox and Scott Sanders wrote summarizing the rationale behind the “black book.”

These names are important to the whole story line the City Hall has been pouring on us. It would tell us if any of the rogue cops were on the pages and if not that would put a hole in the story. However I don't expect you to get them because they will be called personnel files.

Thanks for your efforts on this matter, Margaret. The records request made by Sam Spagnola, Joe Guarino and me included the black book and any attachments to it. Smart of you to ask for those other materials. They should be enlightening.

I see that the GPD, and others involved, have placed the alleged police rape on the back burner.

Haven't heard much of anything about that lately.

Does anyone knows what is up with that case?

To Thinker:
They are not going to prosecute the police officers involved with the alleged assault of the female police officer at Four Seasons. Lack of
evidence (yeah right). My question is are police officers on duty with city car allowed to give people a ride home and it took 3 to answer the call?
