That's just some of the COPS. I don't trust any of them. Murphy either. I doubt what we have been told.

Well you know how it goes, the good cops protect the bad ones. It's a brotherhood thing. I don't trust them either. Look at my beefed up reports and you'll see why. I wish I could find something on that cop that arrested me. If they were to find something about that officer. I doubt they would overturn my case. It would be up to me to find out, hire an attorney, then prove it.
Oh yea, a prosecutor will make the officers duty to the community remarks to built up their case. Also the judge, prosecutor and the officers are working together, for the state. So any disputes goes in favor of the officer. Kangaroo court.

Daily Horoscope for January 8

Aquarius

The atmosphere in the office is stressful. Learn to divide time in a planned and phased manner. Beware of starting a lot of new things but not having the time to finish any of them. Mental overload will burn your busy and chaotic schedules and health problems may crop up all of a sudden. If you party with friends this evening, don't make it too late.
