Rose Valentino
From WikiAlpha
An editorial cartoon, in the Cincinnatti Enquireer, inspired by Valentino's slurs, has a female officer assert her duty is to "Protect and Slur".
Rose Valentino is a police officer from Cincinnatti, Ohio.[1]
In 2011 she was one of the four officers followed by the reality TV show Police Women of Cincinnatti.[2]
in 2020 Fox News reported Valentino and her sister Carmen were arrested over a domestic dispute.[3] Her police powers were suspended, pending a review, and she was placed on administrative duties.
In July 2022 Valentino was suspended a second time when footage from her body-cam was released, and listeners could hear her utter a series of long racist rants.[4][5]
After her dismissal from the force the Cincinnatti Enquirer illustrated an editorial with an editorial cartoon, where a police woman say officers "Protect and Slur".[6]
