Pair tells jail staff they’re detectives in attempt to get ‘partner’ out, cops say (Fla Couple)

It’s not often people try to get into jail, but the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Office said two people told jail staff they were detectives in an attempt to get a friend out.

Francine Olson and Brandon Reyes, both of DeSoto County, Florida, face charges of impersonating a law enforcement officer after they tried to get into the DeSoto County jail, according to a Facebook post from the Sheriff’s Office.

Olson and Reyes told dispatchers they were new detectives and tried to get into sheriff’s office vehicles, the post said. The pair talked to staff through an intercom at the jail entrance.

The sheriff’s office said Reyes and Olson were trying to get George Chanza, “their partner,” out of jail.

Chanza was arrested Friday on a warrant, according to the sheriff’s office.

“The two have since been reunited with their partner,” the sheriff’s office posted.

Maybe George Costanza could help George Chanza, just like he helped Celia (but without the dating).

Plus, he knows Betsy the warden!

Lots of cops have shaved heads these days. He probably would have gotten away with it had he shaved his head first. Sunglasses would have helped, too.

Happens all the time on "Hogan's Heroes".

And, uh, if you want people to think you're cops, you might start by looking like cops.
