Hard to say, either they where hired out of the shitbird pool or this radar gun exam wasn't respected by the group for validity. Maybe it had technical questions that were difficult to answer and they felt weren't pertinent to employment of a radar gun. Not saying that's right just trying to think in terms of a cheater.
My Lt. buddy told me people call in with "tips" all the time: this guy is growing weed, that guy has a stolen XXX in his garage, this guy is dealing drugs. They have to follow up, but they're not in a hurry. However, if a "girlfriend" calls, and says her boyfriend has done something, they hop in their cars and head right over.
Millenials doing millennial shit. Points for creativity, but Fuck 'em all. There no damn room for bullshit like that in the LE world, especially in the beginnings of the academy. If these shits start dishonesty there, how far will it grow and intertwine into their careers?
Currently going through a self sponsored academy. A few classes ago when all the tests were done through a computer. An entire class of 20-25 students was disqualified because of cheating. Banned from TCOLE and will never be peace officers in the state of Tx.
Dude steps over the line with his PMSing girlfriend and she rats him out. WTF? Did he bang her mom?
Then he starts grabbing at anything like a drowning idiot in the deep end and drowns the whole class.
Well good for him. He finishes #1 as the biggest loser. Lost his steady pussy, lost his side pussy, lost his job and lost his friends.
