It should be illegal for any law enforcement investigator to sell information gathered by acting in an official capacity.
This goes for every chiseling cop who got a book or movie deal about a serial killer. You’re a public employee and you have access to information only in your capacity as a public employee. You have no right to trade on it.
Sheriff Arpaio's Posse Surprise
Headed by Michael Zullo, a retired police detective, and rounded out with two former law enforcement officers and two retired attorneys, the posse's work was entirely voluntary and operated at no cost to Maricopa County taxpayers.I'm not sure that should apply here. All they are saying is that there's probable cause that someone committed a forgery and fraud, not who.
Sense of integrity or do you just hate cops?
I don't believe The People of Arizona or The People of Maricopa County are going to publish or sell this valuable information.
When retired, however, he can publish and sell "his autobiography". ;)
True. The discloseable facts should be reported by the news media.
Some facts were presented at the press conference - stuff like the draft registration having a postal stamp with only 2 digits when all the postal stamps from that post office at that time had 4-digit stamps, or stuff like only the week of Aug 1-7 missing from the National Archives’ microfilms of passenger lists for incoming international flights, the government employee who heard Bill Ayers’ mother introduce Obama as a foreign student, etc.
That stuff should have been reported by the national news media, having been reported through legitimate means at a press conference. Besides WND, what news organization has reported those 3 facts that I just mentioned?
