A month after firing and charging an officer he said had no business wearing a uniform, Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia is facing scrutiny now that the former officer has been released from jail.

Garcia faced some tough questions Thursday about his handling of the capital murder investigation involving Bryan Riser.

“Disappointed in yesterday’s ruling, there’s no question. I’m not gonna lie about that,” Garcia said.
