#ChiefJim
LAPD cops working for ICE contractors off duty — while the department fights to keep its moonlighting records hidden.

That is the accusation now being leveled directly at LAPD leadership after a judge ordered the records turned over.

(Full disclosure: I liked the idea of her that existed in my mind because of the house ad more than I liked the actual comic.)

This is one instance in which I think major changes made in adapting the source material would likely be a benefit.
There is a great core idea in the comic, but the execution is...well, read my #Unbagging to see what I thought about that.

And moving on to one that was...interesting, if a bit disappointing.

I think that cool house ad set my expectations for this book WAY too high.
