Bold of you to assume people who recreationally run red lights actually pay tickets

You can buy accounts of all sorts on various websites. Some don’t even bother with hiding on the darkweb. Everything from email verified Reddit accounts to gig work platform accounts are available for purchase.

Reply to Local News Pushing Sports Gambling by swrv23
People care A LOT more about sports when they’ve got money on games and sports coverage is a major traffic driver for local news/news in general (Murdoch for example built his empire on soccer coverage).
They want more eyes and people having increased interest in sports will give it to them.

I stand corrected, and I know why: the conversations I’m (mis)remembering were with a young guy who was looking to join the MSP after college and then police academy.

I could be wrong here (not a cop), but I’ve always heard that the BPD academy is basically the only one in the state that issues credentials graduates really can’t take anywhere else.
Police academies are generally feeders into their sponsoring agencies, but cadets who choose to pay their own tuition can apply to other departments once they graduate. You go to the MSP academy, BCPD academy, etc you can get hired by any department in the state. BPD academy graduates though are effectively considered non-credentialed by other agencies in the state. Maybe after a few years on the force they can go elsewhere; I dunno, not a cop. From what I’ve heard though their freshly graduated cadets are locked into the BPD because nobody else will touch them.

Reply to With towing reform shot down by the City Council, high fees and aggressive practices will continue in Baltimore by mindfulminx
Where are these “aggressive practices” taking place?
Baltimore is a city basically guaranteed to be down a lane on every major artery during rush hour because of cars parked in unenforced tow zones.
