Entire Police Force Resigns Saying Town Asked Them To Do “Sketchy And Immoral Things”

by | Dec 17, 2016 | News | 0 comments

Hold the press! Is this actually some shocking news here? An entire town’s police force have reportedly quit over being asked to do immoral things!

Less than two months ago two officers submitted letters of resignation in the 1,000 resident town of Bunker Hill, situated 60miles north of Indiana.

Then, just recently the entire force followed! That means the town have no police!

Former Bunker Hill, 4-year-veteran, Town Marshal Michael Thomison spoke with the Huffington post saying that the council members were:

“affiliated with convicted criminals”

And that they used the force for their own personal agendas. He went onto say:

“You have a council member who’s been arrested for theft and intimidation; a council member whose spouse was convicted of stealing thousands of dollars when she was trustee; and you have a council member whose parents have prior drug arrests, … They hold illegal closed-door meetings and fail to inform the public of proposed changes.”

Thomson also said:

“We’re talking about things that are completely unethical,… They would request we perform unnecessary criminal background checks and turn over confidential information about individuals.”

The town gave a statement to Huff Post saying:

“The council absolutely denies that it has ever asked Mr. Thomison or any of the reserve deputies to be involved in any illegal, unethical or immoral actions,”

The police force’s allegations are not the first of this type levelled against the town so it’s pointing towards the fact that they may have had good reason for their actions. Of course the residents are not left relying on other state police to come in for emergencies!
