WTOP: DC police officers say raising serious concerns led to retaliation by Mike Murillo:

Two D.C. police officers said blowing the whistle on things they saw inside the department led to “severe” retaliation. And they have taken their allegations to the D.C. Council.

During a committee hearing for the council judiciary and public safety committee, Sgt. Charlotte Djossou said she came forward when she discovered the department’s Narcotics and Special Investigations Division had been targeting minorities without probable cause.

“Officers were targeting groups of minority males and violating Fourth Amendment rights, jumping out,” Djossou said.
