College Cop Fired After Barging into College Dorm Without Warrant
Let's see if it sticks before we celebrate
In what turned out to be a solid victory for camera-wielding citizens throughout the country, a University of Kentucky-Lexington police officer was fired less than 48 hours after a video went viral showing him and another officer barging into a college student's dorm room without a warrant.
There was no placing him on paid administrative leave until the "investigation" is completed.
There was no attempting to prosecute the student on felony wiretapping charges.
