Federal prosecutors have charged West Hazleton, Pennsylvania, Police Chief Brian Buglio with violating the civil rights of Paul DeLorenzo. DeLorenzo said Buglio was upset with him for criticizing the chief and his department on Facebook, calling them slow to make an arrest in a case involving him. DeLorenzo said Buglio threatened to make up a "fake arrest" and jail him if he did not remove his post. Buglio faces up to one year in prison and a $100,000 fine if convicted. Authorities say he has agreed to a plea bargain that will require him to resign.

    Their culture is compliance or violence. It's why you want to avoid marrying one.

      It is why you want to avoid any interaction with one. FIFY

    There was a full article about this yesterday. I feel robbed and slighted by this Brickbat. I detect a sincere lack of effort today.

    1. Unicorn Abattoir   5 years ago

      It's deja vu all over again.

    2. ducksalad   5 years ago

      Seriously, it's happening a lot lately. It's become more like a group blog without an editor selecting what to publish. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

      1. squid_hunt   5 years ago

        Not like they don't have anything to write about, but that would require consistently criticizing Democrats. To do that requires them to give up their conservative boogeyman to report on actual tyranny.

      2. American Mongrel   5 years ago

        There are like 6 editors. This is the best edited magazine of all time, hater.

    3. Its_Not_Inevitable   5 years ago

      Old news.
