This type of thing happens SOOOO much more than we hear about. I have a cousin that's a cop and an uncle that's a retired cop. When I get a few brews in them, I can get them talking. Well, one time I asked my cousin if cops treat each other differently on traffic stops. He said 'Yes, but not only cops, firemen and paramedics too.'
If you work in one of those 3 fields, it would be pretty darn tough to get a speeding ticket or arrested for DUI, just because they all kind of follow the philosphy of 'you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours' and they try to look out for each other.
That's stupid.
