Who knows? I wouldn't put it past them at all - sadly whistle-blowers at
every level (right from local PDs - e.g. Ohl, up to the highest levels of government - e.g. Snowden) are treated terribly by a country that is supposed to be
the example of a vanguard for "free speech", "free press" and a "fair trial".
But there is no doubt that police corruption exists - and who knows just how rampant it is? I have only recently found out about the case of Jessica Boynton which has been dubbed "Who shot the officer's wife" by the media (
Behind the closet door: Crime Watch Daily investigates the Jessica Boynton case - one of the many articles and
The Officer's Wife podcast | What really happened in the Jessica Boynton shooting - YouTube - a podcast series on the case). The cover-up is so bad and permeates so much of the PD that there is a change.org campaign to get the FBI involved (
Sign the Petition).
