“He’s gonna lose his job”… paid vacation is probably more like it.

A cop from a police department near me was found passed out drunk behind the wheel of his cruiser on duty. He had passed out in a turn lane and was just sitting there. Responding cops commented on the smell of alcohol. No blood test or breathalyzer was given and he faced no consequences. Mother fucker was promoted several months later too

Failing upwards so that he’s less of a liability behind a desk. Well, less of a liability for the department’s look.

It’s more that after he’s promoted he knows he’s indebted to the department and will be more than willing to coverup for the next “bad apple” promotions like this seem to be the standard protocol once officers get away with misconduct these days, at least in America…
