    But why did we hire an interim police chief who also lives in the Midwest? And why does Barnes get to keep his signing bonus? Are we running some kind of charity for midwestern cops?

      Barnes also has a federal tax lien on his house in Illinois to the tune of $86,841.14. This grifter got all of us to pay his fucking tax dues.

      Fuck this guy.
