The drug war has many victims. Many of them are police officers who are tempted by the big money they can make dealing drugs. Police are in a unique position to take advantage of the drug war. This war must end.

[M. Thatcher]

These cops are not "VICTIMS." Sheesh.

You people are so twisted.

[Moonman62]

They are criminals, not victims.

You act as if people are totally helpless and unaccountable when around drugs, then you want to legalize them.

SHEEEEEESH!!

[Diddle E. Squat]

No, crooked cops must stop breaking the law. Or do you think Clinton was a victim of Monica(blame the temtation, not the violator?)

[rolling_stone]

More of the same...

Two former officers sentenced to prison for corruption

One of the many dangers of our current war - there's always a possibility that the dog guarding the henhouse might develop a taste for chicken. Especially when the chickens are so fat and tasty.

I almost feel sorry for them - being an ex-cop in the pen is going to really, really suck.

[Cultural Jihad]

These cops are not "VICTIMS." Sheesh. You people are so twisted.

The prohibition on drugs has robbed these police officers of their free will choice. As mere brutes with no conscience, they were forced by society to steal and plunder. It's all the fault of our policy and our social institutions and our laws that the law enforcement officers are being persecuted today. < /sarc>

[Cold Heat]

Lol! Ya had me goin there for a minute!

[HiTech RedNeck]

What? The jackboots don't taste good anymore?

Chuck Yeager will speak to the CAF, April 27th.

Just cheap bump and mark.

[Squantos]

Sounds like a road trip worth making. I need to break in my new landcruiser anyway. Remind me again when time if ya think of it. First three cases of cervesa are one me.

Stay Safe !

Local residents expressed disbelief and struggled to understand how -- and why -- such a thing could happen.

Jeez, where to begin? How about with the idiocy and futility of prohibition laws? The same thing happened in the 20's and 30's with booze.

Not to mention the length of time they'll be in for-- undoubtedly their law-enforcement status will be an aggravating factor at sentencing. Boy are they going to get the hammer dropped on them.

Meanwhile, Hege is trying to repair the damage -- both to his department and his reputation. He has revamped drug search procedures for the sheriff's office.

Now if scumbag Sheriff Hitler would stop having roadblocks every 50 feet, life might get back to normal.

Since he will be on the ballot (unless we get him now, in the primaries), I won't be able to vote straight ticket this time.

[gratefulwharffratt]

unless we get him now, in the primaries

Scratch that, on second thought, I think he will be one of several Republicans on the ticket, no primary... Maybe I CAN go straight ticket again after all.

McHenry was paying an off-duty visit to the Tiki Club, an exotic-dance club off South Main Street in High Point, when he heard of Kepley's arrest from Chris Shetley via cell phone.

Shetley, a 35-year-old minister's son,

It's clear to me that if he had been raised by swingers instead of a minister,this wouldn't have happened.If you expose your child to a building full of admitted sinners each Sunday,what else can you expect? (sarcasm directed towards some posters on the Van Dam threads)

The drug war has many victims.

HUH? (LMAOROTF) VICTIM COPS ? I guess the dealers are victims and the users are victims and the plants are victims and the oh i could go on and on but i wont.

CHOOSING THE PATH YOU WALK DOES NOT MAKE YOU A VICTIM!
