LAPD officers suspended for Rihanna photo leak

From the 'we knew it wasn't over' files...

Two Los Angeles Police Department officers have been suspended for leaking the shocking photo of Rihanna after her beating by Chris Brown.

We all remember the pic of Rihanna's battered, swollen, disfigured face.

Well, the LAPD was not at all happy that the pic was leaked and have been investigating it ever since.

And now, they seem to have narrowed in on two officers - ironically enough, both women. Tsk.

From the LA Times:
One of the officers, identified by sources as Rebecca M. Reyes, is a nine-year veteran of the department and was last assigned to the Wilshire Division. Her attorney told The Times that a search warrant in connection with the leak investigation had been served on her Los Angeles home.

 The other, Blanca Lopez, is a rookie officer with the Hollenbeck Division and was a housemate of Reyes, according to sources, who spoke on the condition that they not be named because it was an ongoing investigation.

Both have been “assigned to home” pending the outcome of the probe, according to the sources who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to talk publicly about the investigation.

Sigh.
