Thin Blue Line Of Crime

If they aren't murdering defenseless & unarmed poor people, mostly of color, then they're out stealing Chevy Silveradoes.
A Los Angeles Police Department officer pleaded not guilty Monday to stealing a pickup truck from a small dealer in Orange.

Matthew Calleros went to B & J Car Company on Oct. 25, 2019, and asked a car salesman to retrieve some information about a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado on the lot, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.

While the salesman was doing that Calleros drove away with the vehicle, prosecutors alleged.

Calleros is also accused of using another officer’s identification to report the stolen pickup truck was recovered, prosecutors said.

Calleros allegedly checked a state law enforcement system to run the vehicle’s license plate as well as a license plate belonging to a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado that he placed on the 2015 pickup truck, prosecutors said.

Thanks to an anonymous tip, detectives in Orange were led to Calleros as a suspect, said Sgt. Phil McMullin of the Orange Police Department. The dealer had written it off, McMullin said.

Calleros, who would drive the allegedly stolen vehicle to work, was arrested on Nov. 9 at the Hollenbeck Division of the LAPD, prosecutors said. The Chevrolet Silverado was parked there at the time.

The 45-year-old Whittier resident is charged with unlawful taking of a vehicle, forgery of registration or license plates and false personation, all felonies. He is also charged with three misdemeanor counts of unauthorized disclosure of information from DMV records.

Calleros was ordered to return to court April 15 for a pretrial hearing in the Central Justice Center in Santa Ana.

I made the observation several years ago the black and blue is nothing more than the new stars and bars, the new confederate battle flag, and was flamed so hard I not only stopped commenting there, not only stopped going there, I pulled it off my blogroll. Nobody goes there, not in my house.

I stand by that: the black and blue is the new stars and bars. Should be burned.

I agree with Ten Bears. The blue lives matter flag is not the Red white and blue. It is a fascist flag and is the symbol of a racist, white supremist militarized police state. Fuck the police.
