Rochester police chief La'Ron Singletary says the accusations about his lack of initiative in the matter and alleged attempts to cover up the case are a 'mischaracterization' and slams the 'politicization' of his actions
The police chief in the US city of Rochester resigned Tuesday, September 8, following days of protest over the death of a black man whom police had hooded and forced face-down on a road.
Police ordered an initially compliant Prude to get on the ground, but after being handcuffed he became increasingly agitated. "As a man of integrity, I will not sit idly by while outside entities attempt to destroy my character," said Singletary, who is black.
