While looking into Willett's actions, agents also noticed something else that seemed odd. Two other task force members took packages to their vehicles.
Surveillance footage captured another Louisville Metro Police detective who is also a canine handler and a KSP trooper taking packages to their vehicles, Coleman said.

It united five members from LMPD, one from Kentucky State Police, three from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office and one part-time agent from Homeland Security Investigations.
Out of 9.5 cops, 3 were caught dirty.
The others must be worried.

Are “corrupt” and “elite” compatible?

Bad guys had a lot of success during that time, no doubt,” said Vic Brown, executive director of the Appalachia High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area.
I am trying to figure out who the bad guys are this guy is referring to. Cops stealing money from freight or drug traffickers.

Drugs are illegal for specifically the reason that criminals can make money off if them. This is just another reason that drugs should not be illegal. If drugs were not illegal criminals couldnt make money off of them.

I’ve been to McDonald’s a lot. Never came away with an extra $40,000 after going thru the drive-thru.
Maybe because I order from the Dollar Menu.
I don’t know if “Extra $40,000 Cash” is on the menu now or what.
If it is, it probably costs an extra $40,000, at least. I imagine.
Now, THAT is a Happy Meal.

Willett and his attorney, Brian Butler, declined to comment for this story. Butler told reporters after Willett's sentencing that his client didn't steal from innocent people as the money was believed to be headed from local dealers to large-scale drug distributors. Wow. What a lame excuse. They'e stealing drug money from the bad guys, so it's ok?

“Prosecutors pushed for a year in prison, but U.S. District Court Judge Thomas B. Russell shaved that time in half.”
Hmmmm. . . . Prosecutors asked for only a year in prison for stealing $74,000 and destroying an investigation. Then the judge decides to only give him 6 months. Perhaps an investigation of the prosecutors and judge are in order.

Corrupt rank and file drug cops. What a surprise.

Frequently yes. Elite task forces that bust drug lords get the most opportunity to grab cash and prizes. Look at the Rampart scandal in the late 90s.

6 months?
How about death by hanging? If you carry a badge you should be held to a higher standard.

Remember the police hooker scandal back -I think in the late 80’s- where the cops would have sex with hookers then arrest the hookers?
Didn’t they even give that a name like “Project” something or other?
Not blue book, but something similarly lame?

I bet you or me would have gotten a much longer sentence than 6 months, more like 10 years!
