The police report paints an ugly picture.
To read it is to put yourself there, in suburban Minneapolis, at 12:35 a.m. on June 29, 2011, by which point Brett Rogers has already done the things that will cost him his job, his self-respect, and, at least for a little while, his freedom.
You read it and you see Rogers - all 6-foot-4, 260 pounds of him - drunk and slurring his words as he talks to police officers in his driveway.
