As I see it, he was the one that got caught at something they are all guilty of ! I see no difference in filling up cans as opposed to using the vehicle's to haul family members in to go shopping , out to eat, to their kids ball games etc.... Its all state gas no matter how or what its put into ! So maybe vehicles should be left on post after a shift as well ! I know everyone has opinions and that's fine... This is mine :) |

Have they asked Mr Finchum his side or asked him for comment? Nope just what the sneaky State Police Sgt said! I have heard that Mr Finchum did reimburse the state police because he forgot his wallet. Atleast he resigned his position with dignity unlike another trooper who is still probably getting paid by our tax dollars for sitting on his a**. |

Wow. So not only was he stealing gas, he was driving a state vehicle without a driver's license in his possession. This could get nasty folks!! |
