Mark Hunter, former chief of police in the Township of Columbia, Michigan, was a busy man.

Hunter has already pleaded guilty in Jackson County Circuit Court to electronic eavesdropping and embezzlement charges. He was accused of secretly video taping himself having sex with a female employee in the police department offices in Brooklyn and with selling the department's firearms.

For those crimes, Hunter was sentenced to 11 months in jail. But investigators discovered evidence of other crimes when they searched Hunter's home. Hunter faces additional charges of possession of child pornography and possession of heroin.

One Township resident explained why communities feel betrayed when the police violate the laws they've promised to uphold:

"He was putting people in jail, and all that time he was doing bad or worse. I don't think [11 months is] enough."

    Fred..... Get a room, padded hopefully. Bush is a piece of crap only because he's a coward when it comes to dealing with the political pressure coming from the anti-arabs in this country. "Anti-Arabs", what a quaint term for the racists and hypocrites who have control over the mass media in this country. And some of them claim to be progressives too.
