Now we also exposed that officer and another involved in this arrest were both on the Brady list And police and prosecutors didn’t drop the charges until the morning of trial That’s when a judge ruled officials could not hide those officers’ troubled pasts from the jury The fact that the officer was on the Brady list is relevant and the court will deny the request that that precluded from testimony in this matter But Turiano wasn’t the only officer on scene with a history Remember the first officer Brian Alvarado Well on the morning of trial prosecutors claimed they just got a new internal investigation showing Alvarado submitted timesheets requesting to be paid for more hours than he worked And we’ve got this report from Alvarado today The state no longer believes we have a reasonable likelihood of conviction so it’s in the interest of justice to dismiss it
