A Whole Lot Of Ammo Missing From Hartford Police Range

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - A Whole Lot Of Ammo Missing From Hartford Police Range

Posted: 5/2/2015 10:02:17 PM EDT

Mr. Campbell found that over a 10-month period in 2014, Mr. Crabtree purchased 94,500 rounds of .45-caliber and 9mm ammunition, at a cost of more than $33,000 — even though in 2012 Hartford switched to .40-caliber handguns. According to the audit, Mr. Crabtree acknowledged the purchase of the .45-caliber and 9mm rounds, but said that he did so with the purpose of trading for .40-caliber rounds, which he claimed were in short supply.

There was an ammunition flea market among police departments? .40-caliber rounds were in short supply?

"Everything has been corrected, everything that comes in and out has been bar-coded and is tracked," said Deputy Chief Brian Foley. Mr. Crabtree has retired. The department is awaiting an internal inspection into the matter. If there is any indication of criminal activity, it will be referred to the state's attorney for investigation.

If their purchasing procedures were so lax to allow that to occur, the whole department's finances needs auditing.

75% of all my self defense ammo I have was probably police stuff. How they got it and if legally I am not sure.

This. The whole departments books need to be looked at. This is probably just the tip of the iceberg.
