Here we have the same story, different spin. Keep this in mind the next time you read a headline. In the first headline it appears that a “”used to be” trooper got arrested for sexual assault. In the second headline, the trooper got a head job, got arrested and then became a former trooper.

The MSM plays games like this all the time. Often the “former officer” had not been employed as a cop for decades.
Don’t be so quick to decide that the cops lied in the telling of a particular event. As the CBS headline indicates the media can play that game. For more on media lies check out MSM reporting on Basement Joe’s first presser.
