Several questions come to mind.
Is it incriminating to the police?
Is it incriminating to the professor?
Maybe a little of both?
Possible embarassment to either? both?

IMHO the police were the only ones doing their job....the professor without a doubt hopped up on his elitist black horse.....and the POTUS like Jackson and Sharp took the only position viable to them and that was the race card.

On the job training continues to take it's toll.
