Who could have guessed that may-issue permits could be (gasp) abused!
I thought the police would be even and fair in their determination of who should get one, just like they are in all their other activities.
Wait, why is this dude being charged with bribery when:
Following a two-year investigation, the DA’s office discovered that the two sheriffs were deliberately “refusing to release [the CCW licenses] until the applicants gave something of value.”
Unless I’m missing something, the problem is with these two sheriffs acting illegally. Were they brought up on charges for soliciting a bribe or what?
Depends who brought the charges. Somebody with an ax to grind internally would just bring the charges because they got exposed so I’m taking you down with me.
Somebody external would charge with bribery because they’re participating in the scheme.
If you bribe you’re not innocent. You might be in an unwinnable position, you might have to do it, but you are facilitating the cycle.
I mean, if you change the word from bribery to extortion it sounds a lot closer to what happened. People don’t normally wait 2 years to start bribing people for something they should already have gotten.
Apple executives don’t need CCWs. I need a CCW because my subs liked to be paid in cash so $50k in cash in my car was typical so a firearm was necessary because contractors get robbed. Apple executives don’t because they’re little soft bitches.
You pay your subs? I usually just fuck them
