The Negotiator (corrupte US cops) anno 2016...==========
Niet direct MMA nieuws maar toch wel erg interessant

I'm UFC Vet Sean Gannon, the only guy to ever defeat Kimbo (RIP) bareknuckle. I'm being ordered to turn in my badge for turning in a dirty cop to the FBI. AMA
https://www.reddit.com/r/(...)he_only_guy_to_ever/https://www.reddit.com/r/(...)guy_to_ever/db0si1b/a Chicago police woman and her partner, they worked undercover on the streets, and found out that there were a lot corrupt officers, that were selling drugs and framing innocent people. They/she went to the FBI, and together with the FBI they had a sting operation, and collected 3 years of intel on the corruption.
And she was still working undercover doing her day job. Only one or two people in the department knew what she was doing, and one day one of the people in the department who knew let the cat out of the bag, by accident to another superior, the news spread. The sting operation that was being conducted on 12+ corrupt officers, went by the way side.
She had to take a leave, cause her supervisor told her that she had to wear a vest at all times, even coming to work, that she could be shot walking from her car to the station, by a fellow officer, and if she or her partner were in trouble and needed back up they could not guarantee any one would show up.
She filed a case against the police department for being persecuted for being a whistle blower and in turn the police department sued her, and said if she dropped her case they would drop theirs. In the end they settled out of court for I think 2 mil, days before it was to go to trial, and after lawyer fees it didn't amount to much. She had to give up her job and was dealing with PTSD.
And from the FBI sting only two officers got busted out of the bunch and will be out after serving only 2 years or less.
All I kept thinking was this is awful, and how could this be happening in 2016... and now your situation.
