It's Good to be a Cop in Auburn, IN

If you have perused this blog before, you have read about my disgust with the little political cesspool that likes to call itself 'the Home of the Classics.'  It's another one of many many faceless little towns in Indiana that is desperately trying to seem like it is special.  It's special all right.
Some time back the town received an rv from homeland security.  Why homeland security is wasting our tax dollars on campers is anyone's guess.  I suppose that there are a lot of muslim terrorists who are camping in Walmart parking lots, who knows?  More likely-someone's brother sells rvs and the sibling in the government is trying to help him out.  Kind of like Obama's staff guy Rhoades and his brother that is the president of CBS "news".
But back to Hazzard County Auburn, Indiana.  It would seem that recently a citizen came in to claim the money and other items that were confiscated from her during an arrest.  You see, in Auburn-if the police notice any money or expensive items, they "confiscate" them to make certain that you aren't using them for something illegal.  Innocent until proven guilty, you ask??? Hahahahaha! You naive innocent!  There is no constitution in Auburn, clearly.  Rights are so last century.
Well, the person in question came to claim her property and guess what? That is right- it was gone!  No jewelry, no cash, nada.  Four polygraph tests later and the money was found.  Isn't that amazing?  And now, two officers have been put on leave.  Their names, you wonder?  Well keep on wondering because the head of the whole mess-Marty McCoy-decided to protect his cop buddies once again and not release their names!Wowee, it's good to have cop friends, isn't it?
The local paper, which takes great delight in printing the name of every single person who is arrested for a misdemeanor to a felony accepted McCoy's refusal to release the names. KPCnews-the conglom that runs most of the local newspapers in the area simply accepted the refusal and abided by the cop's wishes.  That is one investigative tool right there.  Of course, this is the same newspaper that wasn't the least bit interested when they were given stacks of copies of odometers that had been rolled back by a local car dealership.  "The Virus" as this dealership calls it, was really handy when their pals had overrun the miles on their leases.  Then it spread to cars going to auction.
McCoy wasn't very interested in that crime either, as his entire investigation amounted to asking the men who did it- "Did you do it?" and then taking their denials as the end of it.
Corruption isn't just at the national level-it's permeated to the lowest rungs, and trust me- Auburn, Indiana is about as low a rung as you can get.  Same rules for everybody ought to apply, cop or not.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.
