Supreme Court Refuses To Hear Courageous Three Case!

Nearly twelve years ago Michael McKenna, William McKenna and Ray Carnation (known as the Courageous Three) were police officers with the Philadelphia Pennsylvania Police Department.  After witnessing discrimination and corruption, their moral and ethical beliefs forced them to report these unlawful acts.  However, after reporting discrimination and corruption, all three officers were fired.  After a long and arduous legal battle, a Federal Jury ruled the Courageous Three were terminated from the Philadelphia Police Department solely because they had reported corruption and discrimination.  The Jury awarded the Courageous Three 10 million dollars.  Still, the Judge reduced the award to approximately 300 thousand dollars each.

The Judge’s ruling was unsuccessfully appealed to the Third Circuit Court.  Then the Courageous Three appealed to the United States Supreme Court.  Recently the Courageous Three learned the Supreme Court declined to hear their case.

On Thursday May 17, 2012, the Courageous Three will be our guest.  Join us in the discussion of their case and how that decision could impact you.
