Deputy doesn't realize dash cam kicks in automatically.. records his drug buy, mumbled slurs about a woman he passes

"they live in a nice house and they think they are something" he mumbles as he drives past a dark skinned woman

he was driving 90 miles an hour (for no reason other than to get his fix). at that speed the dash cam kicks in and records him.

Michigan cop bought drugs, used N-word on duty. Then Holly police hired him
The Holly Police department hired officer Greg Marohn without ever knowing the troubling reasons he'd been forced out by his last department.

I play golf with an ex-cop. He says steroid use among LEO is quite prevalent around this part of Illinois.
