IN THE NEWS: Officer Fired for "Ghetto Handbook"

The Associated Press has reported that a Houston cop has been fired for creating and disseminating a so-called Ghetto Handbook.

The 8-page document was handed out to school police officers. The purpose of the handbook was to help officers speak as if they “just came out of the hood.” In fact, the subtitle of the book was:

“Wucha Dun Did Now?”


The officer/author was an 11-year gang investigator. School officials say the incident was an egregious violation of their standards of conduct and decency.
