Nonsense........


I've witness their rallies on weekends and it's always an avenue where budgets are made and shared amongst a certain officers for running around and having cameras capture them.


The Coro Marshal doesn't pay them. I was ones a part of them and decided to reduce my activities. Still have the batch and vest in my car.
