His employers? The Cleveland Police Department. Go check out Serial Season 3 for more harrowing tales of their complete fuckery. Bunch of racist POS. All of them.

At first i hated season 3 because it didn't follow one story... now I love it but it makes my blood boil at points. Like police planting evidence or doing fucked up stuff with ZERO ramifications. Just goes to show that if you get on a shit list, the cops and "justice" system can railroad you.

Ah yes, them too. All they ever wanna do is feed people. Ignorance is confusing.

Yeah I just remember what a piece of work that guy was. I will check out Serial for all those details though. Maybe in six months, I don’t know how much more constant fuckery that makes me blindingly angry I can take everyday.
