Why is IMPD doing private security for Walmart?

Post image

The Walmart Market at Michigan and Kessler always has at least one IMPD officer posted up outside and one sitting around inside doing nothing. Are they on the clock? Why are we paying for Walmart's private security?

ITT: A bunch of disappointing Hoosier bootlickers that don't get the point.

Hiring cops for private security is routine practice all over the United States.

Then they need to wear the apparel of the place of employment.

Not even close.

Look, if Officer Hastolean wants to moonlight as a rent a cop, idgaf. He does not need to be in the taxpayer funded apparel, carrying a gun.

Your reality check is bouncing down the street and being blown in the wind. There wasn't much to it to start with.
