Police Union going after Donald Driver's Father

Police union officials want an investigation of Green Bay Packers receiver Donald Driver's father, alleging he lied about a police beating and being forced to swallow cocaine.

The Houston Police Officers' Union sent a letter to Harris County District Attorney Pat Pykos on Friday requesting a perjury investigation of Marvin Driver Jr. after an internal investigation cleared three officers of wrongdoing in the elder Driver's arrest.

Union attorney Aaron Suder told The Associated Press on Saturday that the union is pursuing the case in part because the publicity it received. - WTMJ Story

I believe that there should be further investigation, and if he lied then he should be prosecuted. It is too easy for someone to lie and tarnish the reputation of others and then have nothing done to them when the truth comes out. If we show people that it only gets worse when you lie, then maybe some of this will stop.
