We said, “Get a hobby.” We did not say, “Sell illegal firearms.”

Just in case you thought our semi regular series on cops behaving badly was taking a hiatus, in comes some news from a couple of PDs local to the studio.

According to the story on Police 1 and in local media outlets, a few Officers have found new and interesting ways to screw up. From the investigation into possibly conspiring to assault people comes evidence of theft of firearms, falsifying police reports to steal and resell firearms and even one Police volunteer who simply walked off with “thousands of gun parts and ammunition”.

This week’s story reminds us that this job can be easy if you let it.

This week, we cover:

• How working a single overtime will likely net you more than selling a stolen AR
• Why hiring screening isn’t catching these criminals before they get a badge
• That this is not, guaranteed not, the first time they’ve tried this
• How stupid you have to be to text on a department phone about committing crimes
