Boston Bombing Photo leaker- Jasmine Easter

Sean Murphy, who leaned photos of the Boston bombing, has retired from the police force at the age of 48. After he leaked the photos he was sentenced to a 1 days suspension and them transferred to a night shift job. The police department claimed that the transfer was not punishment or a demotion but simply because they needed some one on the job but we all know that is a lie. By leaking those pictures Murphy could have compromised the case. I know if I was in charge and my photographer was leaking photos I'd move him to a different job because I would have a new found lack of trust. It's human nature to respond that way. What I don't understand is why the department can't just come out and say that. Murphy, now retired, says he does not know what he will do next.
