What a joker! It’s not like he’s Robin the guy or anything

I don't know how they could obtain warrants with no evidence of a crime. Clearly a business dispute.

So not just the Sheriff but a Judge or Magistrate is dirty too. What does that say for that jurisdiction?

"The sheriff was detained by the FBI at an illegal brothel with under age sex trafficked girls in Vegas"

I'm sure Carlos Bolanos will still get full pension, even despite her gross abuse. Why isn't a clean exit a requirement to collect pension? It should be forfeited when they step way out of line.

Messed up incentives, this may be fully calculated on Carlos' end.


> Why isn't a clean exit a requirement to collect pension?

Because a pension is just a special fund you put money into while working and get money out of when retired. It isn’t some handout, it’s your own money.


You are mistaken.

Pensions typically pay out at a fixed rate until you die, and even then your spouse can continue collecting until they also die.


What does that have to do with who’s paying for it? It’s like an insurance, you put money into it and then depending on circumstances get money out. It’s not a handout and not granting it would be theft.


Sure. I just don't like when abusers get away with it and suffer no meaningful consequences.


So the consequences should be government theft? This is the same hollow ‘tough in crime’ emotion that causes the problem to begin with.


I was agreeing with you, bud! I'm persuaded, and don't have a good alternative answer.
