Title: Interesting story about Florida cops corruption and possible link to Cruz.

Figured this might deserve it's own thread instead of being buried with in the other one.

The long story short of it is that Cruz had had MANY interactions with the cops, so much that he cop at the school recognized who he was when he got out of the Uber and walked into the school, but due to their policy of ignoring crimes due to corruption it ultimately led to this latest shooting.

At this point, nothing about law enforcement's malfeasance in the case will shock me.

More asset forfeiture success stories.  Isn't that nice to see?   =)

So is there a connection between the Broward County SD, and money laundering? Was Cruz supposed to have something to do with it?

Fistful the SD willfully ignored juvie crimes and falsified records for grant money. That's the connection

OK. It just looks like the third link is about other LE (not Broward County) laundering drug money. So that seems unconnected.

I agree with you, it is an article for 2015 so how is that relevant?
