Case Fixing, Drug Dealers, Now Shady Accounting!

A source in the police department tells DDS that for years there has been a contingency or "flower" fund that the officers have the option to pay into. The fund exists for the purchase of flowers, mass cards, Christmas parties, etc. Many of Duquesne's finest opt to contribute at $5 per pay to the tune of $130 a year per officer.

A great idea in theory but it seems that only lefty has control of the monies. We were told that over the years, officers have asked for an accounting of the fund but have been ignored. It seems that "mister integrity" has refused to open the books to anyone who has asked only responding with a "What, you don't trust me?"

In addition to his shady accounting, there is no committee or consensus as to how the money is spent. If lefty thinks that an officer's family deserves flowers, they get flowers.

So, in the midst of case fixing, gambling, betrayal of his own family as well as his oath to uphold the law, we ask the question: Should this guy be trusted with what could easily be thousands of dollars without any auditing or accountability? Well duh!
