In Hammond, Indiana, a former St. Joseph County Police officer was sentenced May 13 to more than six years in prison for burglarizing a mobile home and stealing plasma TVs and computer monitors from it -- oh, and cocaine, too, which he tried to sell. Former officer Andrew Taghon was one of three local police officers indicted by the feds in the case dating back to 2004. The other two await sentencing.
Stop The Corruption..OOPS!
How Many Cops Have Bought Forfeited Homes?

Police corruption increasingly abounds U.S. Cities. Citizens are illegally shot, falsely arrested, prosecuted and imprisoned.
Too easily, Police can falsify evidence, purchase or influence informant testimony to convict innocent Citizens. As police corruption spreads like cancer—so do the risks Americans may be "falsely" imprisoned—despite the conviction standard “evidence beyond a reasonable doubt.”
Seldom addressed by the press, is how easily police can falsify “civil evidence” to cause “civil asset forfeiture” of a person’s assets like their home. It would be interesting to learn how many cop families got bargains buying forfeited houses. Civil Asset Forfeiture requires a lower standard of evidence than criminal evidence, “only a Preponderance of Civil Evidence”, little more than hearsay to forfeit property. Police need only put false hearsay on the street to manufacture hearsay evidence to seize property. In many cases, No one has to be charged or convicted of a crime for police to forfeit assets.
