Night Shift: Prisoners Given Guards’ Guns and Cars To Work As Hitmen During Nights

There is an amazing story out of Northern Mexico where jailers not only allow prisoners out at night to work as hitmen, but allegedly gave them their own service weapons and vehicles to do the night work.

The prisoners are accused of at least three massacres this year in the city of Torreón — leaving 35 people dead.

The Director of the jail in Gómez Palacio — Margarita Rojas Rodríguez — is accused of complicity in the crimes.

    Judging by the number of bad cop stories we see here, all I can say is, “Coming soon to a jurisdiction near you.”

    Well, at least no one can accuse Ms. Rodriguez of running a country club prison.

    Note that the Mexican cops did NOT give them their badges….

    Since when do you need a badge to be a criminal? Or be a cop anymore? But then again, whats the difference?

    But GB, the distinction is duly noted….
