But then it seems the Dallas police department has bigger issues to worry about then dirty comic books:

Quote:
A year ago Dallas police were caught making cases against more than 70 defendants based on fake drug evidence. Now the city manager and the police chief are moving toward a system that would raise new secrecy walls around drug testing and make it harder for anybody to catch the department the same way again.

...

The police department's version of the scandal from the beginning has been that innocent, unsuspecting, naïve narcotics officers were duped by wily confidential informants (CIs) who were planting fake drugs on defendants in order to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in snitch fees. That's their story. We don't make this stuff up. We hope the narcs were provided with counseling to help them recover their trust.
