This is not a "training" issue. It is a criminal matter. If the various allegations are true, crimes have been committed. When "on duty" officers worked on the former sheriff's home, the sheriff was indicted. If the Leland Chief is not indicted for similar misconduct, someone needs to apologize to former Sheriff Ronald ("Hollywood") Hewett. Citizens have long known that some cops in the Leland PD were over the top, untruthful, and out of control hooligans. Instead of working in Leland proper, they have also tried to usurp the State Highway Patrol by setting up speed traps on US 74 and US 17. They are a dysfunctional crew.
