Small business owners in Minneapolis say the city forced them to hire off-duty MPD officers for security gigs. Some were led to believe MPD wouldn't respond to their calls if they refused. The officers often insisted on cash payment. https://minnesotareformer.com/2023/10/17/small-business-owners-they-are-pressured-to-hire-off-duty-mpd-cops-for-security/

try googling "fulton sheriff civil forfeiture" to see what I mean.
