There are two classes of citizens in this country. Law Enforcement and the Political class who have most of their human rights recognized and get passes when they violate others’, and then there’s the rest of us with far fewer rights recognized and the judicial system stacked against us. Oh, and we pay for the whole thing.

David Codrea tracks (part time) the shenanigans of these ‘Only Ones’.

" Bribery is what the Armed Robbery charges were dropped to by 'Plea Bargain'. Bullshit. That's not a plea bargain, that's the prosecutor bending over backwards to keep a cop out of jail. What this guy did is in no way an act of 'Bribery'. It's Armed Robbery, clear and simple. What I expect is happening here is that the prosecutor can't keep his job without the support of the local Police Unions and other support organizations. On the cop committing armed robbery:
