Five Summit County sheriff's deputies facing trial in the 2006 death of a county jail inmate were returned to the payroll this week but will not resume their law-enforcement duties until their court cases are resolved, agency officials said Wednesday.
Citing an economic-hardship clause in the agency's contract with the deputies, sheriff's legal counsel Christine Croce said, the deputies charged in the inmate's death submitted letters to the sheriff asking to be reinstated to the payroll.
We in the private sector paying for this all have clauses like that with our employers, don't we? I mean, I'm sure they can't be "The Only Ones" who can't do their job but still get paid--can they?
And do peruse the comments on this one.

WOW. Summit is really getting up there on my "behind enemy lines" list...as in stay away from.
Since I have friends there it's not so easy.
