Updated 4:42 pm, Thursday, July 14, 2016
DETROIT (AP) An assistant prosecutor in Michigan who quit last year after posting on Facebook that people assaulting police officers in Baltimore should be shot has returned to work for her former employer.
Wayne County prosecutor's office spokeswoman Maria Miller said in an email Thursday that Teana Walsh returned to work as a part-time contract employee in June.
Miller says Walsh isn't commenting.
Walsh's since-deleted post on her personal Facebook page said the "solution" for "large swarms of people throwing bricks at police" is "Shoot em. Period." Miller said in a statement at the time that the post was "out of character" and "does not reflect the person that we know."

(26,624 posts)"Decision To Blow Up US Citizen With Robot Was Improvised In Less Than 20 Minutes"
"A hotly-contested decision by law enforcement to use a drone robot to blow up a U.S. citizen, who allegedly carried out the murders of five police officers in Dallas, just got exponentially more controversial - because, according to Dallas Police Chief David Brown, the whole idea was improvised in about 15 to 20 minutes.
Already igniting fury around the country for neglecting any semblance of due process, the use of the Remotec model F-5 to deliver a pound of C-4 explosive to decimate suspected shooter Micah Xavier Johnson as he targeted police in a sniper-style attack, has been revealed by the police chief as a hastily-plotted
whim.
Browns disturbing offhand comment came during a press conference in which the model of the mechanical tactical droneclarified as the Remotec Andros Mark V-A1?was finally made public, in an apparent attempt to quell constitutional rights advocates ire over the unprecedented move by police.
While Johnsons cold-blooded attack on random police officers in one of the most progressive and reform-minded forces in the country landed an official black mark in the annals of American history, theas many advocates warnegregious violation of his human and constitutional rights as the first U.S. citizen blown up in this manner earned police, themselves, a similarly notorious mark."
