Just maybe, if you are a law enforcement officer accused of killing a teenage male who has not attacked you or anyone else, someone should hold up your pay unless and until you get a "not guilty" verdict.

But, hey, nothing seems as easy to spend as taxpayer dollars. Easier than monopoly money, even.

Rec'd for visibility and not because I approve of shooting people dead.
