Beau says:
A cop's arrest involving controlled substances sparks interest, but initial allegations hint at personal addiction rather than widespread corruption within the union.

Insights on the implications of addressing addiction and personal behavior within positions of authority.

Well, howdy there, internet people.
It's Bo again.
So today, we are going to talk about a story out
of Bozier City, Louisiana, because a whole lot of people
expressed interest in it and asked me to kind of dig into it.
It involves a cop that was taken into custody by the feds,
I want to say last Sunday.
Now, I think the reason it sparked so much curiosity
is because this cop is also the president of the police union.
And initially, there were some reports
suggesting that it had to do with something
to do with the union and perhaps fundraising.
However, when I looked at the affidavit,
that's not what it's about at all, really.
It looks like it has to do with controlled substances,
painkillers. And at this point, Sergeant Harold B.J. Sanford, as far as I can tell,
hasn't even been indicted. So looks like charged via complaint and that's where
it's at. So all of this is allegations at this point. However, when you look in the
affidavit there are some transcripts of text messages and yeah that's I mean it
looks as though he had somebody going out and getting pills for him and then
selling it to him. You know, going to get in the prescription. If there is a tie to
the police union I think it might have something to do more with him using
funds to support his habit, alleged habit, more than any widespread corruption. I
couldn't find anything that indicated that it was part of some bigger scheme
at this point. It looked more like, I mean honestly, it just looks like a pretty
typical addiction story, just this time involving a cop who also happened to be
the president of the police union. I'm not sure if there's perhaps another angle
that isn't disclosed in the affidavit. As everybody's learning from the the Trump
case, it's the documents are sometimes less than forthcoming about their
intentions for obvious reasons. If there is a widespread corruption issue within
the union, the FBI is not going to want to tip their hand. But based on what's
there, that there isn't a huge tie, there's no indication that they're
looking for some massive amount of corruption or anything like that. It
It looks just like a very typical story when it comes to this type of thing.
I will continue following it and see what happens as the case progresses, but at this
time, it doesn't look like there's going to be a massive investigation of the union
itself or of the police department.
And I think that's really what people want to know.
So anyway, it's just a thought.
I have a good day.
