I’m wondering if this is too much of a stretch, but could the WAPD who questioned him about Laura and did the walk through of his apartment have been previous buddies from the job? Could they have conversed about old times and how they used to dabble in the cell phone business? Could they have talked about the good old days when they watched the dancers on the tax-payers dime instead of enforcing the law? Possibly they were too busy giving him the high-five for all the women he chased while on duty to notice anything unusual. As his attorney will say, “It’s not like he was doing anything criminal.” :gathering:
That's hardly a stretch! If they didn't know him (previously), we can be fairly certain it didn't take long for them to learn that he was an ex-cop either from SZ himself or a senior member of the West Allis P.D.. There's a "code", it's known. It's real.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Code_of_Silence
The Blue Code of Silence (also known as the Blue Shield, Blue Wall, Curtain, Veil, or Cocoon[citation needed]) is the idea of an unwritten rule that exists among police officers not to report on a colleague's errors, misconducts, or crimes. If questioned about an incident of misconduct involving another officer (e.g. during the course of an official inquiry), while following the code, the officer being questioned would claim ignorance of another officer's wrongdoing.
Officers who follow the code are unable to report fellow officers who participate in corruption due to the unwritten laws of their "police family."
"Testilying" - a portmanteau of "testify" and "lying" - is a United States police slang term used when an officer gives a false testimony in court in favor of their fellow police officers. If an officer chooses not to lie in court they may be threatened and ostracized by fellow police officers.
