PBC deputies caught cheating o
Twenty sheriff's deputies accused of cheating on tests have been reprimanded, stripped of their career deputy status and ordered to pay back any extra money earned with the higher paygrade.
About half the deputies charged with cheating admitted sharing answers to the on-line tests that earned them education credits to qualify as career deputies, a status that increases salary.
The 20 deputies were charged with ethics violations for improperly obtaining test answers. Investigators ruled that violations against six other deputies were unsubstantiated.

Post 7/7, UK police is no long
LONDON: One year after the worst terrorist attack on British soil, London’s storied Metropolitan Police is struggling to maintain its reputation as one of the world’s premier law enforcement agencies. While it responded swiftly to the July 7, 2005 attacks, which took the lives of 52 commuters and the four suicide bombers — rookie officers were among those who led survivors to safety— it had failed to nip the conspiracy in the bud.
Sir Ian Blair, who leads the 32,000-officer force also known as Scotland Yard, was forced to admit that the attacks on three subway trains and a double-decker bus came “out of the blue”.
The force also remains haunted by the fatal point-blank shooting by plainclothes police, two weeks and a day after the attacks, of a Brazilian electrician who was wrongly identified as a suicide bomber. Its relations with the Muslim community have been strained after a raid in east London a month ago failed to turn up traces of suspected bomb-making — but not before two brothers were arrested, and one shot, only to be released without charge.
As for the investigation into the bombings, it seems to be in limbo, with no accomplices yet caught, let alone behind bars — something of an embarrassment for a police force that takes the lead in all major anti-terrorist operations throughout Britain. The Muslim community, which in Britain mainly has its roots in Pakistan and Bangladesh, has felt increasingly vulnerable to police attention, not just since July 7, 2005, but going back to the 9/11 attacks in the US.
