Firing Upheld for Cop Who Leaked Rihanna Battery Pic


Back in 2012 ten year LAPD veteran Rebecca Lopez was fired from the force for leaking the infamous photo of Rihanna's badly beaten face after she was assaulted by Chris Brown [click here if you missed that].

Rebecca's firing has been upheld...

A judge ruled against Rebecca's wrongful termination suit agreeing with the disciplinary board's decision to fire her.

While Rebecca admits snapping a photo of the picture sealed in Rihanna's evidence file she denies leaking the photo to TMZ.

Rebecca's attorneys argued she was an outstanding officer who made a singular mistake.

Rebecca's ex-girlfriend and roomate, then rookie cop Blanca Lopez, was also implicated in the leak but was found innocent and retained her job.
