According to MLive<\/a>, about ten people calling themselves the Genesee County Fire and EMS Media-Genesee County Task Force Blight Agency have been pretending to be law enforcement officers for about three years in Flint, Michigan – pretend-arresting and detaining people with their pretend uniforms and pretend police car.<\/p>\n

Leyton authorized charges against three people on Wednesday, May 30, that include three counts of unlawful imprisonment and one count of impersonating a peace officer to commit a crime.<\/p>\n

Emily Nicole Burrison, 27, of Burton, and Jeffrey Lee Jones, 29, of Flint, were arraigned on the charges Thursday, May 31, before Genesee District Judge David Goggins.<\/p>\n

A third Flint man was charged in connection with the case and he was taken into custody while working at Cedar Point in Ohio. Investigators said he is being held at the Erie County Jail while awaiting extradition to Genesee County for arraignment on the charges.<\/p>\n

Court records indicate there are five other co-defendants in the case, however, charges have not yet been filed against them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Police say that there were times that the pretend cops arrived on the crime scenes ahead of legitimate first responders.<\/p>\n

[Kevin Shanlian, chief of the Genesee County Parks ranger division] said there was a core group of about 10 people who were impersonating police since October 2015.<\/p>\n

“I believe there’s probably hundreds of victims who were actually detained and didn’t have good experiences with these folks,” Shanlian said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It looks like they also consumed the donut rations of every cop in area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
