>The documents reviewed by The Baltimore Banner include a February 2022 “goals and expectations” memo from a barracks in the Eastern Shore that lays out in detail how many traffic stops, citations, warnings, arrests, and other metrics would meet the law enforcement agency’s monthly “expectations.” For a state trooper in the Princess Anne barracks, that means making at least 70 traffic stops per month, issuing at least 35 citations and two to three arrests. The metrics also include a range of “driving under the influence” arrests to be made per year, which is listed as four to six.

Man, these clowns not only wrote down their crimes, but also added metrics.

So good cops can't stop bad cops? They can scuff up civilians for made up issues, but standing up to another cop, can't do it. These troopers are trash.

Funny how the FOP suddenly doesn't have any power when the problem comes from inside the force but will go on the warpath if the citizens make trouble for them.

The completely made-up rule has no way of making it undone, definitely no way that the troopers could say "we're not doing this anymore and it would be the way things are now done. Nope, no way to change a procedure. Bunch of assholes.
