Wein has been charged for masturbating in a Monte Carlo elevator while riding with 3 female university students.

Along those same lines, we came across an interesting bit of news in which a couple of Honolulu police officers were recently arrested in Las Vegas.

A former bail bondsman was hired by the Austin Polic Union as a consultant, but got more than he bargained for. According to the Union's leader Sergeant Wayne Vincent, Charles Kent Olson was hired to advise on "political and legal matters and to help in fundraising efforts for the union's charity."

The bail bonds industry doesn't have the greatest reputation. Although, the bail bondsman has a legitimate place in the criminal justice system, many see them as merely people who deal with "criminals" for money.
