Sarasota News Leader January 18, 2013 Page 60 OPINION when the possibility exists that we will be facedown in the asphalt with a pistol pressed against our head. And we realize that the Sarasota Police Department is not simply a troubled, mismanaged agency … it is completely out of control. Many who know Chief DiPino have sung her praises, stressing that she has the "right stuff" to get the SPD house in order. We sincerely hope so. But we would feel much better if she sees to it that the officer who overreacted on New Year's Eve is identified, made to offer a heartfelt apology to the realtor and her client, and then disciplined in a way that lets her know — along with every other member of the force — that such jack-booted tactics will not be tolerated in our city. Care. No matter what. • Lifesaving cancer screenings • Annual GYN exams • Affordable Birth control LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Sarasota News Leader welcomes letters to the editor from its readers.
