BRIAN ROSS and VIC WALTER, ABC News:No training. A botched drug sting. A dead 23-year-old college graduate. But authorities in Tallahassee, Fla., have yet to take any action against the police responsible for an undercover operation that led to the death of Rachel Hoffman, a recent graduate of Florida State University.Police Chief Dennis Jones, interviewed for tonight's 20/20 broadcast, says he does not accept that his department is in any way responsible for the death of the young woman. "Do we feel responsible? We're responsible for the safety of this community," Jones said, labeling Hoffman a "criminal" because she was caught twice with a baggie of marijuana."People we use as confidential informants are people that are familiar with the drug trade," the police chief said. In the case of Hoffman, her friends say she refused to inform on friends who smoked grass.
