I can see a reduction of the charges but no charges for two breaking and enterings - ridiculous. As for the police supervisor expressing public dissaproval - one we have heard nothing about this from media outlets and two most officer supervisors do not publicly refute their officers. Unless he is a bad cop no way.
Let's say you enter on the scene of an crime and come across not one but two doors that have been kicked in and the perps are still inside. Is it an overreaction to arrest the two people? No it is not.
