Baranowski left the state police in 2003 after 17 years.

He’s accused of witness intimidation, obstruction and offering a witness or victim a bribe. His lawyer declined comment.
The paper says Troy Harris’ brutal beating in April at the Charleroi Slovak Club left him with cognitive problems. It was captured on video.
Eleven people face charges in Troy Harris’ attack.

Anyone can be accused of something. It needs to be proven. I feel that the news should not report things until it’s proven. If this is found to be not guilty. The news made this man embarrassed, wrongly accused, and a lot of grief to deal in his retirement. Just my opinion.

What’s funnier? 2500 for a near death beating or a cop that rats on himself?

Not sure why the idiot that wrote this article tagged the Bandidos, Hells Angels, and Outlaws motorcycle clubs since it’s an article about the Pagans.
