While the information under Garrity is protected from prosecution. He can still be fired under department SOP if the IA investigation determines wrongdoing.
Since the BCA is not the MPD, Garrity "probably" does not apply. Sounds like he is taking the 5th...
Prayers to all involved. This situation just sucks.
