    arrested after crashing his car while possessing 20 unprescribed Xanax pills

    Uh huh. And I bet he wasn’t forced to take a field test and/or blood sample like any non-cop would in the same situation. Thin blue line privilege to avoid a DUI.

      He was on leave. Can you imagine being caught with 20 Xanax pills, never mind crashing the company car, just being caught with the pills, at any other job and just being put on leave?
