Officer A initiated the dispute by posting a series of images and statements on social media, indirectly implying that Officer B has been utilizing personal relationships and networking for gaining undue advantages in job postings and promotions. This act unproven, has stirred up a storm of rumors, leading to severe reputational damage to Officer B.
