Former MD Police Superintendent Sentenced

by TChris

A former Maryland law enforcement officer who had the attitude "The law applies to everyone but me" -- a police superintendent, no less -- received a six month sentence for misusing thousands of dollars in public funds.

Edward Norris, 43, and his one-time chief of staff, John Stendrini, 60, spent the money on dinners, hotels and encounters with women. In one case, Norris used money from the police fund — originally set up during the Depression to help officers' families — to buy Valentine's Day lingerie for his mistresses.
