I think former FBI agents in good standing can get a job anywhere, including private security for more money. Working for years in the Ka$h FBI will tarnish them forever.
So that makes it Buncombe, Henderson, Polk, Madison, and Swain. I think there's 100 counties in NC, so we see that 5% of counties in NC are corrupt to one degree or another. I don't remember too much about the Madison County thing....it was something about the former sheriff who became a state ABC head did something wrong about money or something.
Could be that WNC is special. Idk about the rest of the state. There's the Upstate, too. Wright (R) is wrong!

Sheriff Wright to plead guilty. Maybe we can expect a contiguous corrupt sheriff territory from the TN border to the coast of SC.
... Wright will be at least the 12th sheriff in South Carolina to be convicted or plead guilty to on-duty crimes in the past 15 years for misconduct ranging from extorting drug dealers to having inmates work at their homes to hiring a woman and then pressuring her to have sex....
I think that tops NC!
Lament the murder, not the murdered.

Second-degree murder seems reasonable to me, but probation will be really annoying.
I saw the father (I think) on TV whining about the second degree conviction. I felt like reaching through the screen and grabbing his shirt, shaking him harshly and yelling "you idiot - do you realize how rare it is to convict a cop of anything for shooting somebody? Take the win, thank the prosecution, and go honor your daughter."

George Floyd unwittingly sacrificed himself so that there would be more of these convictions. He broke the stranglehold cops had on knee-jerk public affection and support.
