1. Austin Police Chief Art Acevedo confirmed Monday that investigators have completed an internal inquiry into the controversial shooting last month of an unarmed, naked teen. According to Acevedo, he made the announcement soon because he says that the shooting cases have taken a year to a year and a half and he does not want to wait, therefore the timing of this story should occur quick because if it does end up taking a year, who will really care about this story in a year? The police has three options which include to either schedule a disciplinary hearing for the shooter, request an additional investigation or they could exonerate him from any policy violations. The investigative findings will only go public if released only if he is suspended for at least a day for his actions related to the shooting.
