KARE 11 (17 Sept 2009): Embattled Minneapolis cop feels 'betrayed' after firing

Quote:
When a federal jury exonerated Officer Jason Andersen earlier this year in the shooting death of Fong Lee in 2006, the city of Minneapolis and it's police department stood behind Andersen and fully supported him

But now, just a few months later, Andersen's attorneys say something has changed, something that caused the city to fire him.

Andersen was recently charged with domestic assault, but those charges were dropped. After an internal police investigation, Andersen was terminated anyway.

Andersen tells KARE 11 that he doesn't know exactly why he was fired and was only told that it was a violation of the department's code of conduct.

So, they terminated him for the assualt, but not for killing someone? I guess the killing part could not be proven. It's such a shame.
