Entire police dept put on leave

[larr]

Ridgely police dept has been put on paid leave and no one seems to know why or just not allowed to say.

Telling pulled over women to blow into the penis shaped breathalyzer machine was probably a bad idea.

Now they have to go through all that chest worn camera video to find the culprits.

Identifying women by the backs of their heads could present a challenge.

Update just posted

On Wednesday afternoon, a law enforcement source within Caroline County told WBOC a whistleblower had alerted the Maryland State Prosecutor of an ongoing situation within the Ridgely Police Department. According to that source, the investigation stems from Ridgely Police not properly disposing of surplus equipment, including guns and cars.

WBOC's source also tells us the police were accused of of not submitting administrative reports and failing to complete background checks on new officers.

A good while ago they had a chief of police who knew how to apply for grants and military surplus. I know that he got a couple of 50 cal rifles and a bunch of m16's or m4's . I also believe he acquired a mrap also. He has passed away now but I wonder if it was those items. I believe that just before he passed on, he was in the process of applying for a helicopter

The big question is, how long before Barney gets his bullet back?

Agreed. That was a great add on

It looks like the entire department is 6 officers.

I thought maybe they took someone for a swimming lesson like the Seaford cops did one time
when they were handcuffed.
And it wasn't too awful long ago the Greensboro police had a problem with someone they took into custody that couldn't breathe or something like that.

Telling pulled over women to blow into the penis shaped breathalyzer machine was probably a bad idea.

What color is your wife's hair again? It s a small world over here someone may recognize her by what kind of knot she got.

I was wondering about the reporter and tv cars out front of the police station when I went by.

I'm pretty sure that Barney will have to take a $300 class, pay for prints, pictures and $10 MSP fee to get his bullet.

Gotta control excessive ammo acquisition and monitor the user of the ammo for subversive warning signs.

Just checked their website . They have:

Chief
Sargeant
Detective
Corporal
2 PFC

Apparently 6 total , including Chief .

Only the police and the military...
Oh, wait, nevermind.

Looks like they found a sweet workaround...
