New Taser costs VPD $1,200. But it does have a built in cam corder! The taser purchase did shock me, but only because the motion was passed by the VB after executive session when none of us were there to hear and/or participate in the discussion. I have my reservations if our PD really needs a taser. Although, I absolutely agree that every officer should have a bullet proof vest.
I would like to stress that the only thing I do not agree with is when and how the VB passed the motion to purchase these items. Their choice to do business in this fashion makes it look as tho they were sneaking it past the citizens......
