KopBusters! Setting up stings to catch crooked cops in the act. Should be like shooting fish in a barrel....

About goddamned time. We need more - MUCH more of this sort of thing. Break that Blue Wall once and for all.

Tastes like justice to me.

"It's called an informant plant. The Odessa narcotics unit illegally compelled an informant to plant drugs on Yolanda Madden. The informant testified in federal court he planted the drugs on her and he passed a polygraph confirming the same. Yolanda also passed a polygraph along with a hair follicle and urine test. Our broken criminal justice system ignored the evidence and railroaded her through court sentencing her to 8 years in prison.

"Her father hired KopBusters, a new reality show produced by NeverGetBusted, whereby Barry and Candi along with their detectives set up stings across America to catch crooked Kops."

Just visit the site....

Added: Read the Odessa American account of the event - and vote in their survey.

Man sues after "POLICE" t-shirt arrest - St Louis Dispatch

Short version: A guy was wearing a t-shirt with the word "POLICE" across the front and back. Some cops took offense, over-reacted, and arrested the guy for "impersonating an officer."

"According to the lawsuit, a waitress told Weinstein that some police officers wanted to speak with him outside the bar. Weinstein went outside, he said, and was greeted by Belleville Police Officer Jeff Vernatti.

"Vernatti, Weinstein alleges, asked him for his police credentials. Weinstein says he told the officer he didn’t have any credentials because he wasn’t a police officer.

"That’s when, according to Weinstein, the police officer started screaming curse words and became physically and verbally abusive. Weinstein says he was cuffed and later released by the officer, but made to take the t-shirt off while standing in the cold.

"Weinstein was ticketed for impersonating a police officer, but it was later dismissed. The ticket only alleges Weinstein wore the t-shirt."


Okay, here's the kicker - the thing which forced me to pass it along:

"I’m afraid to go to Belleville," Weinstein said in an interview. According to the lawsuit, Weinstein is a firefighter.


...with liberty and justice for all...

Not a new idea though, just a new spin.

Bad cop no doughnut has been doing this for a while.

BTW, did we ever find out why Bobo is no longer a policeman?
