Awkward

19 criminal cases are being dismissed by Salt Lake County District Attorney because of possible illegal actions of a West Valley police detective. That unnamed detective is currently under investigation.

Wednesday night West Valley City Police are doing damage control.

"The West Valley Police Department understands that conducting these types of investigations is part of maintaining the public's trust," said Sgt. Jason Hauer, West Valley Police Spokesperson.
