Unauthorized transfer of firearms from State Police Armory?

[BostonFJ40]

Anyone know more about this? Just heard on Fox25 that 3 staties have been suspended without pay for some unauthorized transfers of surplus firearms to a state "authorized" vendor. Fox has the officers names but won't release them yet.

I'll bet we can all guess who the "State authorized vendor" is!

 

[Junior314]

I'm surprised they were suspended without pay.

The story already reeks of bullshit. Whatever theyre telling us Im sure reality is 10x worse.

Who? VV?

Dirty cops? Where's my shocked face...

 

[peterthefish]

Anyone want to bet the vendor paid for the guns? And if so, how? A check not made out to the state police? Store credit..?

Sounds like Village Vault, the alleged "non-State actor".

The CBS news story I saw said that the Staties are referring the case to AG if she'd like to press charges

Maura's more likely to press charges against the media and NES for making a big fuss about this than press charges against State PD.... "Nothing to see here...."

Just sayin'

I see a need for a FOIA query here. 1) Officers involved 2) vendor 3) disposition

Classifieds traffic has increased 10x .

Ok, I'm apparently a little dim and bad at reading between the lines here. What happened? They sold some guns to a vendor without being authorized and there is suspicion that they made money from it/took possession of the guns themselves?

Probably a typo

so they stole guns and tried to sell them illegally.

Its OK since they were just "surplus" firearms, whatever the hell that means.

 

[Tarsook]

You and me do it? Scary picture on the news, interviews on the 7 oclock news with the most lib neighbors they can find, fully named in all state newspapers.
They do it? Not releasing names.

Suspended without pay tells the story. Investigation is probably done / damning.

Are these evil "weapons of war" that have no place on our streets that Queen Maura has waged her fake political crusade against?

Or are these "personal defense" weapons?

That's my bet.

I am sure Maura will be consitant and punish all the statues not just the ones that violated the law All statues face a ten year fellony and all their previous 18 years of service does not count ( Even those those years of service met the legal requirements of the state. After all the money we save from these pensions can be used for housing refugees after all it's for the children.

 

[M1911]

I never will understand why some people will mess up their lives like that. Those guys had well paying jobs with a killer pension, and they have likely thrown it all away. For what? A few extra bucks?

Change your name to PD!

I dislike any preferential treatment they may receive.

 

[Dennis in MA]

LOL. I see what you did there. Punny.

Pretty simple.. Just set up shop in Somerville, hang a "We Accept EBT" sign (with translations into about 27 different languages) in the window, and stay open til 3 or 4am every day. You'll have a steady line out your door, around the corner and halfway down the side alleyway...(and if you have a corrupt cousin or brother in law who can walk the line offering cold hard cash in exchange for a few of those EBT cards, you'll REALLY make some awesome profits).

Just sayin'

Y'alls can bet yo ass they did, bro...
Fastly. And Furiously.

Actually, I don't think the MA State Police have ever used Glocks.
