If you canna figure out how to investigate slackoff any faster than this, it would appear to be more economical to simply let it happen. bleah

I may have missed it, but isn't the unidentified City employee that was involved in the Weed & Seed program investigation still being paid? Last I heard he was and that has been going on for a couple of years now??? Imagine a 2 year+ paid vacation.

That's what happened with the OKC Cops accused of doing a drive by shooting. Even though the public was told they be treated like gangbangers, they weren't. Instead, one of the cops saved his $70K+ a year salary he was paid to stay home for 2 years and then bought the Marble Slab in Bricktown a couple of months ago. Sounds like he learned crime doesn't pay (sigh).

Nothing. They got paid $70k+ per year to stay home for 2 years. I know at least one got to keep his CLEET license so he can still work as a cop, but he bought two Marble Slab's instead. Not sure about the other one.
