From: C. E. White on 28 Jul 2010 09:22 The Wake County NC Sheriff's Department has a Corvette they use. I have seen it pull over a car. It was a drug seizure. I persoanlly think the Sheriff should be voted out of office for keeping it. In theory it should have been sold the Corvette and turned the money over to the local school system (NC rule). Instead the Sheriff kept the Corvette and uses it as a play toy. I've never like the idea that law enforcement can sieze things becasue of some hypothetical connection to a crime, and this case is, at least in my mind, especially disgusting.

I suppose it's like that little town called "Bell?" You've got there where the chief honcho gets $788,000 per annum. (Twice the Presidents $400,000). Apparently they can set their own pay in closed session and no one knows what they are paid apart from their pension company. Was on our programme called "Newsnight" national news last night. -- Clive

The Mayor and COP resigned, but they are getting great pensions! This is a case of the local residents not paying attention. Ed

Some folks are getting in trouble for videorecording cops doing their jobs in public where there is no expectation of privacy. dangerous times ahead. |
