Who Guards the Guards: Police Respond This Time

We’ve been carefully watching how over the past few months there have been several cases of weapons belong to the police being stolen, often times from unlocked vehicles left out over night. But this time we’re happy to report that no such robbery occurred at this point. Instead, five people have been indicted on federal charges for alleged conspiracy to steel guns form the Tchula Police Department reports the AP via News Channel 3.

What is noteworthy in this story is that “several people pleaded guilty this year in a separate conspiracy to steal guns” about 24 miles away from another police department!

This is worrisome, because clearly criminals know where the guns are… in the hands of the police. Why go to gun shows, when there are guns available and ready to be stolen!
