Michael Proctor — the “investigator” whose texts could fill a library of bad decisions — has officially given up on getting his job back. After those scandalous messages came to light, he’s dropped his appeal faster than he dropped his professionalism.

Apparently, when you spend years sending lewd, biased, and downright offensive texts while investigating major cases, “second chances” aren’t really part of the package deal. The fallout? Hundreds of cases could now be questioned — because who can trust anything touched by Proctor’s fingerprints (or phone)?

From Karen Reed to Brian Walshe, this mess just keeps growing — and the DA’s office is trying to sweep it up with a broom that’s clearly too small.

So grab your coffee (or your popcorn), because this is what happens when your lead investigator texts like a 15-year-old with Wi-Fi and zero self-control.
