Sorry, LB. My intent was to support you in your assertion, and clarify that I wasn"t the BFQB, not to call you out.
We are in agreement and on the same page.

Read your response wrong. Thanks for making me feel like less of a horse’s ass.
I’ve had long talks with my brother about this issue, and it’s clear that his agency and all agencies they work with regularly have an unwritten, unspoken, but seemingly very well known index of what officers they trust to have their backs, and which they don’t. Fortunately the “don’t” list is short, but it’s there.
As a never-LEO I will almost universally refrain from MMQB’ing people who do the work. I made an exception here because my brother does this job and I rely on his backup to get into the fight if he’s in trouble. If the officer who fell was my family I would have a hard time sitting at a dinner table with the cover officer going forward.
Ah well. All’s well that ends well.
