    90 days. I guess it’s ok to steal from the elderly in Ohio. I wonder if they gave him an ice cream cone on the way out of court.

    Is there restitution? If not, hell, I’d do ninety days for half a million.

    I see that both of the elderly died, but there must be some heirs out there somewhere.

    Started reading, saw possible 11 years for stealing half a mil from an old retired lady, thought “shit man, only 11 years?”, then kept reading.

    Fuuuuck… I’m not an ACAB, but that thin blue line shit ain’t working…

        I’m just not into stereotyping is all…

        Is there any shitheads on your block? At your job? Are you one simply because you can’t fix stupid? I would say no, is all.

        The ending of qualified immunity, the removal of protection from liability, making cops pay penalties instead of taxpayers, full prosecution when cops are caught doing the sketch, body cams that are unable to be turned off and are monitored by third party… There are cops who wouldn’t be the slightest bit affected by any of it, because they aren’t shitheads.

        I’ll go with most are bastards pretty readily though ;)

            people have been killed for trying to expose their department’s corruption.

            Yeah but who cares? They were power trippy bastards who violated people’s rights and stuff… Right? All cops are bastards?..

            See the issue here? Stereotype bad… Most cops are bastards, not all. There’s a reason we don’t like stereotypes.

    Wouldn’t that much money easily put it into felony charges, which have a mandatory minimum amount of time that’s way longer than that?
