Look, we all do things we’re not supposed to do while on the job. Whether it’s reading The Noisecast when you should be getting those TPS reports completed, or watching the 10-hour Nyan Cat marathon on Youtube, we like to do dumb shit and get paid for it. Most of us however, are not cops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

On May 18th, an unnamed police officer in Madison, Wisconsin decided that not much of anything happens in Madison. So he did what any self-respecting slacker would do; torrent a movie on the company computer.  But it gets even better. Our intrepid slacker and piracy-be-damned-I-am-the-law public servant not only had to gall to illegally download a horrible Owen Wilson movie, he managed to infect his squad car’s laptop with a virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Officer Shouldaknownbetta took the government owned laptop to be serviced by the station’s IT department it was quickly determined that it malfunction through improper use. Duh! Shouldaknownbetta received a 6 day suspension but to date has not been charged for piracy. (pssst… MPAA, get on that – bastards)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
