Only the drug dog was apparently trained<\/strong><\/p>\n

Only in Arkansas: A convicted felon with a drug dog business was helping Mayflower AR police<\/a> and carrying a sidearm with the permission of the Chief. On Law and Baseball see Traffic Stop: Fake Cop; Fake Dog<\/a>. The Chief was suspended, and likely under investigation for being an accessory to both a FIPF charge and impersonating an officer. From the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette article linked above:<\/p>\n

Sgt. Robert Alcon, Mayflower\u2019s acting police chief, said Tuesday that the sheriff\u2019s office \u201cis conducting afull investigation into what happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe chief is kind of the focus of that investigation,\u201d Alcon added.<\/p>\n

But Alcon said, \u201cin no way, shape or fashion was he [Brinkley] ever employed by the Mayflower Police Department. He was an independent contractor. He and the chief had some arrangement to use his services\u201d for dogs in narcotics cases. \u201cThings got a little out of control.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alcon declined to be more specific.<\/p>\n

Mayflower, a town of about 2,230 residents, has five full-time police officers, including Shaw, and two part-time ones.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
