This would almost be funny, if wasn't so completely screwed up. LAPD overlooked 3 dead children inside home for 7 hours after mother taken away

She was arrested/detained or whatever they call it when they determine she needed "medical assistance" for being a disturbed person.

So far, so good.

But she was not arrested at home, and LAPD, and the fire department neglected to check on the well-being of her children.

So police arrived again to the block seven hours later and made a grim discovery: All three children — two boys and a girl — were dead.

They would notice a flashing neon light. Maybe it wouldn't even need to be flashing. Anything else, well they're cops, not geniuses.

It remains to be seen whether the children were already dead when authorities found Flores in her neighbor's yard. Asked whether there was a possibility the children were clinging to life when officers arrived Saturday night, LAPD Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton said he did not know and noted the medical examiner would determine what happened.

Bets on whether the official story is they were dead? Bets on whether anyone will be reprimanded? Bets on whether or not this is the stupidest thing done by LAPD in 2022?

LAPD Brass is not answering questions, so much as deflecting. Everything is under investigation "at this time." Whatever.

And to think, it is becoming HARDER to recruit cops in the past few years. OK. This kind of insanity will probably become more common as they scrape the bottom of the proverbial barrel.
