We used to be suspicious of how often and easily bad guys infiltrated law enforcement in movies and on television, but that’s no longer the case thanks to the Chicago Police Department. We find this story goes down best if you picture the real officers as members of the Superfans. Via Yahoo/AP:

A 14-year-old aspiring police officer donned a uniform, walked into a Chicago police station and managed to get an assignment — patrolling in a squad car for five hours before he was detected, police said Sunday.

The boy did not have a gun, never issued any tickets and didn’t drive the squad car, Deputy Superintendent Daniel Dugan said.

Assistant Superintendent James Jackson said the ruse was discovered only after the boy’s patrol with an actual officer ended Saturday. Officers noticed his uniform lacked a star that is part of the regulation uniform.

They noticed his star was missing? That’s it? That’s all? They didn’t notice that he didn’t have a gun, or that he reeked of virginity, or that he had no fucking clue what a “735 in progress” was? Geezus.

And if the kid didn’t drive that means some dipshit drove him around for five hours thinking the kid was his new partner, right? That moron cop better have just been assigned to permanent cats-out-of-trees duty. We’re not affiliated with any branch of law enforcement but we think it’s safe to say he doesn’t have the keen observational skills required to make detective.
