Brickbats: Family Business

The San Diego Police Department fired officers Bryce and Jennifer Charpentier after they pleaded guilty to conspiring to commit burglary, possession and sale of a controlled substance, and possession of a firearm by an addict, among other charges. The couple, who are married, would text each other to set up burglaries to steal drugs from people they met on duty.

Jennifer Charpentier even offered to take over a narcotics operation from a drug dealer

Typical public servant - if she had any entrepreneurial flair she'd build her own narcotics operation, not take over a private one

I believe it's called mergers and acquisitions.

[Swiss Servator, spare a franc?]

More like a taking - I wonder how they would compute "just compensation"?

[Snark Plissken]

Have you seen her business card? That subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark!

[Crusty Juggler]

Do you like Huey Lewis & The News?

[Snark Plissken]

I'd like to answer that question, but I really have to return some videotapes.

[Monty Crisco]

They sound too black for my tastes...

[PS]

Actually I think its called nationalisation.

Drug war corrupts cops.

Dog bites man.

Sky remains blue.

Law & Order is writing an episode as we speak.

You know you're immature when at the end of the news clip linked in the article the reporter said, "at the Hall of Justice" and you immediately think of the Super Friends.

+ Wonder Woman

Or mad max.

[This Machine Slips It In]

Despicable, yes. But the wife? Absolutely would.

[AlmightyJB]

Her greatest crime was marrying someone named Bryce.

[Invisible Finger]

I thought the rule was "never put it in crazy".

Innovative policing. This is what the New Professionalism is all about.

Ain't the drug war great. Doesn't keep scumbags off the streets, but it keeps them employed.

Google pay 97$ per hour my last pay check was $8500 working 1o hours a week online. My younger brother friend has been averaging 12k for months now and he works about 22 hours a week. I cant believe how easy it was once I tried it out.

I really can only see this as sad. The WOSD has failed so miserably and this sort of behavior should be expected, given how we've created a whole class of criminals based on what people put in their bodies.
