Whaddya want to read the Cambridge Police Department reports about Gates incident?

A friend is asking about what happened to this incident so I've searched the Internet and get some information. Here's what I've got.

"JULY 23--Here are the police reports detailing the confrontation last week between Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr. and Cambridge cops, who were condemned last night by President Barack Obama for acting "stupidly" in arresting the African-American scholar. Cops responded to Gates's house after neighbor Lucia Whalen reported spotting "two black males with backpacks" trying to gain entry to the home (Gates, returning home from a trip overseas, and his driver were contending with a stuck front door). The Cambridge Police Department reports, authored by Sergeant James Crowley and Officer James Figueroa, quote an incensed Gates yelling, "This is what happens to black men in America!," and, when asked by Crowley to speak with him outside the residence, Gates replied, "ya, I'll speak with your mama outside." A disorderly conduct rap was filed against Gates, but quickly dropped by prosecutors. Gates is reportedly considering legal action against the Cambridge police." (2009, TheSmokingGun.com)

This is the story of the Cambridge Police Officers. I hope to get one from Prof. Henry Louis Gates, Jr.

Learning Vulnerability Scanning is fun and easy. So I hope you enjoy reading this short how to guide on how to use vulnerability scanning to secure your servers and networks. NMAP is the swiss tool that you need to learn if you're serious in Cyber Security profession. The NMAP tool can be use with NSE scripting (Nmap Scripting Engine) to automate your tasks.
