We're the Only Ones in Pocket Enough

A Miami cop tasked with taking Crime Stoppers tips had other plans, authorities say, instead taking nearly $15,000 in reward money for himself and two friends. [More]
And naturally:
The tips generally came in from the northern part of the county, and the rewards were picked up in the southern half. Some involved a county gun bounty program.
Who could ever have predicted such programs lent themselves to abuse...?

if you can understand this story, then you can understand why you don't delegate security to an external group at any level of society for any amount of money and get away with it forever.
