Could it have? I don't know. What is encouraging is that in the past they would have put the officers on paid leave and treated them with deference while the investigation took place. In this case they were promptly fired within 48

"It fell on the floor and and they picked it back up and kept wiping down the cart with it." Why do you think this a problem? If it is a disinfectant wipe it doesn't matter it just made the floor a little cleaner.
