Missouri city apologizes after smiling selfies of police officers taken near where dead infant was found shared online



A Missouri city is apologizing after posting a selfie of smiling police officers near the crime scene where a dead baby was found hours earlier.

Columbia police posted the picture on Twitter on Thursday evening of smiling officers near where investigators sought clues in the unidentified baby’s death, officials said.

The infant, who was estimated to be less than one year old, was found near a wooded area shortly before noon Thursday, according to police. Police said they didn’t know the baby’s identity.

"not all cops..." protestations.

Jesus Christ. Be a goofy, unempathetic asshole on your own time. Don't do it in uniform/on the job, and don't post it on department/agency social media.
