Events this past week elicited mention by a neighboring Sheriff that we should once again allow off duty police to use their official vehicles to keep the appearance of a police presence around the Counties.
The local jail project expenses has exacerbated budget concerns, and I rarely see cruisers around the County as I used to. I assume they are strapped in order to get the jail built.
One item that was practically "free insurance" for taxpayers, was to allow off duty officers to use their vehicles, (if they chose to do so). It is a police presence for free, and yet people complained about expense of County vehicle use.
We owe our officers a lot for what they do.
The presence of a vehicle out in public could make a difference to one of us at some point. I do see them parked at homes, but assume they are not allowed to burn gas for personal use.
Just plain unfortunate not to use these marked vehicles 24/7.
