The DNC seems a distant memory, but we're just now getting details of how Charlotte police spent a $50 million grant federal grant for convention security ...
Two things that stand out:
a) CMPD informants infiltrating protest groups? We can see how that can lead to group strife/paranoia ...
b) Horses were unnecessary ...
"CMPD spent $18,000 building, outfitting and cleaning temporary stalls for 23 horses borrowed from Atlanta and Richmond, but the report says mounted patrol was unnecessary for the DNC."
Listen to the story here.
