The 8th District Court of Appeals in Cuyahoga County dismissed the Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association’s appeal of Loehmann’s firing Thursday.

That’s what team president and coach, Bill Sofranko, texted Randy Knight, an ex-player protesting the team’s inclusion of Timothy Loehmann, the former Cleveland police officer who killed 12-year-old Tamir Rice in 2014.

The Times further reports the department has not officially closed the case, adding further confusion. New York Times reporter Katie Benner helped break the story and she joined host Glenn Forbes on All Things Considered Friday.
