I did have retort all prepared about your wife and my relationship to the hedgehog.

I decided I'd rather not let this topic devolve into name-tossing.

But you go right ahead.

That does resemble me a little though, back in the 80s.  I guess you must have been..what, about 60?

Only from the waste up I would imagine...... Grin

I think what you will end up discovering here is an informant wanting to get out of his obligation to provide testimony in this particular case.....

Not that I am hoping there is more to come, but I have to hope there is more than one drug guy saying the police set him up . . . that's not much basis for ruining someone's career over.  The Barnes' don't seem like they are worth throwing it all away for a setup.

Only a handful of people actually know the scope of the corruption probe, but some are dropping hints:

"If there is any semblance of truth to this, and if there is a plurality of officers involved, then this is a huge black eye on the Police Department," Bartlett said.

Bartlett would be the last one I'd rely on for dropping hints.  And I'm sure he'd be over the moon excited over anything that puts a "huge black eye on the Police Department"

...."A hearing for a former ATF agent was delayed one day today to allow testimony about whether he should be released to his home in Lubbock, Texas.

Magistrate Paul Cleary approved the delay during a detention hearing for Brandon McFadden, 33, a former agent with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in Tulsa. McFadden was indicted Friday by a grand jury investigating law enforcement corruption in Tulsa.

The delay allows time for McFadden’s relatives to travel to Tulsa to testify in his behalf about arrangements if he is released to his home in Texas.

McFadden, who was arrested Thursday, has been moved from the Tulsa Jail to Creek County jail, an official said.

The indictment charges McFadden with taking part in a drug conspiracy, possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute; possession of a firearm during a drug-trafficking crime; and aiding and abetting money laundering. He faces forfeiture actions related to his alleged drug crimes, the indictment states.

The indictment accuses McFadden and unnamed Tulsa police officers of planting drugs on individuals, stealing drugs and money, giving false testimony in court and coercing or persuading drug dealers to sell drugs for the officers, the indictment states.

The grand jury indictment accuses McFadden of operating a drug-selling ring in which he allegedly enlisted 12 drug dealers or drug associates who sold drugs for him.

By offering the drug dealers police leniency or a share of drug profits, McFadden allegedly coerced or persuaded them to work for him, selling and buying methamphetamine, marijuana and cocaine, the indictment states.

McFadden was assisted in his alleged drug-selling conspiracy by a Tulsa police officer identified in the indictment only as “TPD Officer A.” .....

Wasn't there a movie about that? I think it was set in LA, though...

More seriously, what exactly is a 'drug associate'?
