    SEND THE AGENT THAT ARRESTED HIM TO JAIL. YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO AFTER THE BOSSES, SEND THE FUCKERS DOING THE DIRTY WORK TO JAIL AND THIS WILL STOP.

      You can beat the charge and even win money but you can’t beat the car ride and jail cell visit.

      And until we start demanding a higher class of police officer, bullies too lazy for the military are what we will get. Not that I’d want better police officers in this dystopian police system.

        So what? Do it anyway. PUNISH THEM during that lag between when the offense is detected and when Trump finds out and is able to act (if he chooses to act, which isn’t actually a guarantee). Even if they only sit in a holding cell for a matter of days or even hours, at least the experience of being strip-searched, fingerprinted, having their mugshot taken, and forced to wear an orange jumpsuit would be SOMETHING!

          You can get a conviction expunged from your record but the record that you were arrested never goes away. Even if you aren’t convicted, try getting into an apartment in a decent area with an arrest for kidnapping on your record.
