The cops -- many of whom were already collecting three-quarter, tax-free disability pensions for on-the-job orthopedic injuries -- stood to gain thousands more dollars a year in Social Security benefits if deemed to also have mental problems such as post-traumatic stress disorder, the source said.
The probers compared the list of "mentally ill" retirees with a roster of ex-cops who were issued gun permits, a process in which a person has to swear he isn't taking any drugs for mental problems.
Ah the life of a government thug; killing innocent people (then planting bogus evidence), helping mobsters, confiscating guns from innocent citizens and robbing the tax payer via public pensions. What a life it is.
