Police lieutenant says Memphis neglected rape cases

A longtime officer testified Wednesday that the Memphis Police Department failed to adequately investigate sexual crimes.
Retired Lt. Cody Wilkerson, a 26-year veteran of the force, gave “bombshell” testimony he complained to top brass, who ignored his calls for reform, the Memphis Commercial Appeal reported.
Wilkerson testified that police administrators went so far as to muzzle him from talking to an advocate for victims at the Rape Crisis Center.
