You have as much information about it as I do.

We're gonna make the jump as so many cops do, using best available
evidence:

Fact #1, no cop making an honest salary can afford a Ferrari
Fact #2, this cop did own a Ferrari.

Conclusion.... pretty simple...

Well there's that cop making a $100+K in overtime in houston.... maybe he
can. (of course I don't think such abuses of the taxpayers' money are
exactly honest, the department should hire more people if they are
spending that much on OT)

Departments don't spend any money on off-duty jobs. Those wages are paid by
the businesses who hire the cops to work for them. The only time that the
taxpayers are paying for overtime is when the cop is working on-duty and
over his normal working hours.

I wouldn't think so. He's dead, and he was driving.

Going to run for office jaybird? You have that answer the question that
wasn't asked thing down pat.

Overtime is paid by the taxpayers. no second job was mentioned.

You might as well have babbled something about the 'greys'

<snort> Judging from the information presented, the only thing "simple"
about the situation are the people that think everyone lives off a 9-5
paycheck from their dead-end jobs.

My 7-4 job doesn't allow for interesting avenues of income the way a
cop's job does.

Anyone who made enough money in a side job that wasn't dependent upon the
main job to afford a ferrari would give up the main job and do the side
one full time and afford two or three ferraris.
