This Week's Corrupt Cops Stories

Yee-haw, it's getting crazy out there: A Philly drug task force officer gets nailed for exchanging drugs for sex, a Pennsylvania cop gets busted after being found ODing on stolen drugs on the evidence room floor, and more. Let's get to it:

In Johnstown, Pennsylvania, a former Johnstown police officer was arrested last Thursday after being found suffering from an apparent drug overdose at the police station. William Slisz is accused of repeatedly stealing heroin from an evidence locker beginning in 2015 and later from the secure evidence room. After losing the key to that room, he allegedly crawled through the ceiling into a co-worker's office and got another key. Then, last September, he hammered a hole through the evidence room wall before being found unconscious and revived with naloxone. He is charged with burglary and evidence tampering. No word on why it took prosecutors nearly a year to charge him.

In Charlotte, North Carolina, a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer was arrested Tuesday for fraudulently obtaining prescription drugs. Officer Jennifer Wolfe, 37, went down after an employee of a dental practice contacted the department and an investigation revealed she had received a fraudulent prescription for opioid pain relievers from another employee of the practice. She is charged with five counts of obtaining a Schedule II controlled substance by fraud.

In Philadelphia, a former Philadelphia police narcotics officer pleaded guilty last Friday to trading heroin and other drugs for sexual favors from women, including one who got high and then was involved in a car wreck that killed a 90-year-old woman. Stanley Davis, 50, a member of an FBI narcotics task force, admitted enticing two women he met in Kensington into a series of sexual encounters in New Jersey motel rooms and in his assigned police vehicle. Davis went down after the fatal wreck, when the woman involved told investigators she got her dope from Davis. He pleaded guilty in federal court to drug distribution charges. Sentencing will come later.

In Missoula, Montana, a former Missoula police officer was sentenced last Wednesday to probation for stealing narcotics from the State Crime Lab. Steven Brester, 55, had been a 20-year veteran police officer before taking a job at the lab, apparently so he could gain access to opioids he had gotten himself strung out on after a car accident. At least 50 drugs cases in the state were impacted by Brester's thefts. He was charged with tampering with records, tampering with evidence, and criminal possession of dangerous drugs, with prosecutors recommending a five-year prison sentence followed by 10 years on probation. But the judge just gave him 10 years' probation.

In Hazelton, West Virginia, a Hazelton US Penitentiary guard was sentenced Monday to eight months behind bars for providing marijuana for an inmate. Cody Tyler Layman, 32, pleaded guilty to one count of introduction of prohibited item -- marijuana in a prison.
