Meanwhile modern-day Duke Brothers would have a blue-line flag on their car even as they cause no end of trouble for the cops they claim to support.

Police illegally sell restricted weapons, supplying crime

These high-powered weapons are only meant for police. How are they ending up in criminals' hands?
www.cbsnews.com www.cbsnews.com

Adair, Iowa, had a population of 794. So, it seemed suspicious when its three-person police department asked regulators to buy 90 machine guns, including an M134 Gatling-style minigun capable of shooting up to 6,000 rounds of ammunition every minute.

Federal agents later discovered Adair's police chief, Bradley Wendt, was using his position to acquire weapons and sell them for personal profit. A jury convicted Wendt earlier this year of conspiracy to defraud the United States, lying to federal law enforcement and illegal possession of a machine gun. Wendt is unapologetic and has appealed his conviction.

"If I'm guilty of this, every cop in the nation's going to jail," Wendt told CBS News just days before a federal judge sentenced him to a 5-year prison term. Wendt's crimes appear to be part of a nationwide pattern.

I don't believe for one second that "every" cop is guilty of doing this, but yes, any who are absolutely should go to jail no matter how many of them there are.

Broward Co. to vacate convictions for people who bought crack made by the Sheriff's Office

For three years, the Broward County Sheriff's Office produced its own crack cocaine, so it could sell it to people that deputies would then arrest.

For three years, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office produced its own crack cocaine, so it could sell it to people that deputies would then arrest for buying crack cocaine.

It was a practice the Florida state Supreme Court repeatedly described as “outrageous” in its 1993 ruling that such reverse-stings violated an individual’s right to due process. More than 30 years later, though, a routine audit of documents found hundreds of those arrests and convictions are still on the books and part of people’s criminal records.

Broward County Sheriff Gregory Tony was made aware of the plan to vacate or remove the judgements and sentences for those who were arrested and convicted as part of those reverse-stings and supports the plan, according to Pryor’s office.

“These matters were well before our tenures. However, I am of the opinion that the State has an ethical duty and obligation to correct this injustice before destruction [of old records] is initiated,” Pryor wrote in a letter to Tony on Thursday explaining his office’s intentions.
