Several New York City Police Department officers have been placed on limited duty while the department investigates claims they stole and drank beer while on duty at a music festival. At least one officer stole the beer, according to reports, while the others passed it around.

Well, it's the city's fault for hiring all those damn Irish.
Asset forfeiture is only permitted if you can share it with the state.
Were the officers ever instructed not to steal beer? Probably just a training issue.
Stolen beer… Good for what ales ya! So hops right over beer and get it!
Suds-enly I need some!
Beer is too generalized.
If they don't have specific training dedicated to not stealing -
- pilsner
- ale
- porter
- stout
- lambic
etc., then qualified immunity applies.
At least they weren't guarding a ganja festival in a state where that's legal.
Heaven forbid
We already know how poorly that can go:

Beer, speech, what's the difference?
Was that a slur?

No wonder sarc is so mad at cops. Well except for the Capitol officers that saved America.
Notice the cops are being punished for drinking on the job, not for stealing. Theft is totally acceptable behavior for police.
The price of beer at music festivals is the real crime.
that's what the mdma is for.
erin go bragh. also, time was you'd just give the cops a beer when they showed up
