To: I cannot think of a name
I live in SA and have been following this story. The only part I really don't like about it is this: the guy is a ‘cop’ at a school, but none of this happened at a school. Apparently we have a quirk in the law that allows people like this to act as a cop anywhere they feel like it.

True, but often times, the University owns property outside of the campus itself and they do have jurisdiction. That's very common here in Southern Illinois with the SIU cops. I see them cruising around, in the middle of nowhere, at odd times. The University has a lot of property in the woods, lakes, etc...up to ten or more miles away from the campus proper.

According to the newspapers they were several miles from the campus and on a major public street.
