“The Miami Dade Police Department has fired a sergeant and two officers and suspended three others without pay in what is considered one of the worst incidents of delinquency in the department’s history, CBS Miami reports. The accusations vary against each officer, but they include: failing to respond to emergency calls, pretending to be on calls when they weren’t and falsifying police records, according to the station. The officers– an entire squad assigned to patrol a large area of Kendall, Fla. — were followed and caught on surveillance video by Internal Affairs in 2010, but it wasn’t until September 2012 that they were ultimately disciplined, the station says.”
