    There’s plenty of cases where they don’t look for cars either.

    Or the cops themselves just straight up steal the car themselves.

    My wife’s car was ordered to be towed by, according to the impound lot, the police.

    Neat thing was that there was no ticket with the car, no police station within 3 miles had a record of a ticket for her or the car, and the area she had parked had no signs that suggested it was illegal to park where she did, nor does the city have any ordinance about overnight parking.

    Best we can figure, is a cop or the tow company that works with the city, just decided to tow a car for funsies and the 500 bucks it took to get it out of impound.

    The police and every organization associated with them are corrupt to the core.

      Reading that I almost had a thought like it must have been a mix-up or something, but no, US police will murder people with less thought, so that type of fuckery is completely expected.
