  • NORM PATTIS: Tough to say why Meriden cop was singled out for prosecution
    There aren’t enough prison cells in the federal Bureau of Prisons for all the police officers who have pushed a detainee, and then lied about it in a police report. So it's hard for me to fathom why federal officials singled out Meriden’s Evan Cossette for prosecution. But there he was, convicted of shoving a drunken prisoner and then lying. Why prosecute this case and ignore so many more?
