FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) — St. Louis County police are investigating a Facebook post in which one of its officers discusses how he spent his “annual Michael Brown bonus.”

The Guardian (http://bit.ly/1LdORpa ) reports that Officer Todd Bakula posted on his Facebook page that he took his wife to a bed and breakfast using money earned for staffing the protests this week in Ferguson, where Brown was fatally shot by a white officer last year.

What else would you call overtime hours earned by babysitting a memorial riot honoring a criminal thug?

“Annual Michael Brown Bonus” — completely accurate, but the guy showed poor judgment posting that. Some things are better said privately to close friends only. I hope the hellfire doesn’t rain down on his head and destroy his career.

People just ain't RIGHT these days

A cop gets paid for securing a Michael Jackson event and he takes his wife out with Michael Jackson's money ... right?

Or he does OT at an OWS event and he spends the Wall Street money, right ?

Or he was shot on the job and collected compensation until he got back ON the job and he spent That dirty bastard's money .. right ?


Hey St Louis police ... why'n'cha' STFU !!!!

Too much like undressing in public with the assurance your worst enemies will find out and use it against you. My FB account’s there so I can see what others are posting, not so I can join the insanity. Just remember, if you ever get into a law suit, the first thing your adversary’s attorney will do is look at your FB account, your kids’ FB accounts, and your spouse’s FB account to find damaging information.

Stupid in your face comment. He should have kept his mouth shut.

Fact is cops make fortunes off their tax paid OT and it's even schemed to pad their lucrative tax payer funded retirement pensions. And in this case they stood around watching parts of that city burn while they collected OT? Now this guy brags and broadcasts to the world he and his wifey are enjoying all the extra OT money he got?

Gezuz...

Twitter, Facebook, Internet forums will be the death of us. There so many people who feel compelled to write whatever crap comes into their heads.
