Oregon State Police tried to conceal this controversial SWAT recruitment email when The Oregonian/OregonLive requested it. Now state police are distancing themselves from it.
There’s a This American Life episode from years ago about a guy who joined NYPD saw all the corruption and started talking about it. The Chief of police and a whole goon squad showed up at his house and kept going on about how he wanted to kill himself and he needed to be mentally evaluated in an institution. He got the whole thing on tape.
Good cops don’t last long, they get bullied and harassed into quitting.
