Another officer Tood Majors was just convicted of stealing Oxycodin and stealing from High School Administrators and even Explorers!
"The state Attorney General charged Major in March with 14 felonies and three misdemeanors, accusing the six-year veteran of misusing a city credit card repeatedly last summer; forging a city check; and stealing from two Troy High School administrators, 11 of his Fullerton police explorers, and the Fullerton Car Show."
He was hired despite a DUI arrest.
Which ideally should have never happened but this is just indicative of a problem this nation has.
We have been sold a bill of goods that more police are needed to solve all of societies problems. So in order to fill those billets, the community often has to settle for those unsuited for police work, to include those whose past criminal activity should normally disqualify them.
