Elmwood…isn’t that the department that laid in wait for a guy and then wrote him a DUI while he was on his riding lawn mower?

Yeesh, guess this means I’ll be supporting the incumbent. Who the police support is usually a pretty good indication of who not to. Nothing against the officers, they just always seem to flock to the more authoritarian candidate.

So did any of this police agencies give him confidential information to further his campaign at the expense of the family and the criminal justice system he claims to care about? When he testifies on the 25th of September and has to admit that he received the police reports from the very police union members who are endorsing him, all of these endorsements will be sadly tainted.
