In the middle of pledging an oath to protect, defend and uphold the U.S. Constitution and the laws of the state of California and the United States Dennis Burns was destroying and falsifying evidence in violation of those laws and Constitutions in addition to his own department policy. By placing his hand on the bible Burns pledged an oath to God Almighty to which he summarily and perpetually violated.

Just because Chief Burns is retiring does not mean that corruption in the Palo Alto Police will leave too.
Left behind in the department specific to this case are Lt. April Wagner, Ofc. Kelly Burger and Ofc. Manuel Temores. Furthermore nothing happens in a box, thus there are many other officers, including high ranking ones, who condoned what Chief Burns and their colleagues have done.
Why is that, that is because the type of corruption that occurred in this case continues on to this day in other cases
with other officers.

The officer documenting the crime scene with the camera was ordered to photograph every piece of evidence but decided not to photograph Ofc. Temores' taser probes, taser cartridge, taser wires, blast doors and AFIDS. All of these pieces of evidence were never secured into evidence but were deliberately destroyed in violation of the Department's own policy as well as state and federal law.
