In what seems to be a never ending saga involving former Greensboro police officer, A.J. Blake, there has been another development handed down this afternoon. Blake has been relieved from duty, yet again by the City of Greensboro, for the second time in just over one year. Blake, who has been embattled in legal issues with the City since he first joined the lawsuit filed on behalf of a group of Officers citing discrimination by the former administration of ex-Chief David Wray, has been on the losing end of yet another legal decision so we will see what his teams next chess-move shall be. Blake had hinted recently that if the decision today was for him to be fired, then he would file a lawsuit against the City. He has 10 days to appeal the ruling which seems to be inevitable as he and his advisors are going to exhaust all legal remedies available. The complete story with reference of how Blake has ended up in the position he currently is at the following link:
