HPD says it can't sanction the offices who injured the hikers because the two hikers could not identify which of the 8 officers caused the injuries.  But The HPD officers could identify them.

I believe HPD policies require officers to cooperate with internal investigations. So either the officers cooperate and HPD has the information, or the officers don't cooperate, and HPD can sanction them for violating the cooperation policy.  The reason you have this policy is to avoid the code of silence during internal investigations and give individual officers the backing they need to come forward.

It's perplexing that the majority of the Commission has accepted the statement about the hikers' inability to identify the officers as a valid excuse for no sanctions. Especially given that the hikers won a court judgement for the injuries.

You go, Ms. Sheehan!  We do need more scrutiny in these matters.
