QUIS CUSTODIET IPSOS CUSTODES
Means "Who Polices the Police?"

From the Houston Chronicle:

Kendleton's ex-police commissioner sentenced

A federal judge sentenced the former Kendleton police commissioner to more than five years in prison Thursday and ordered him and a former police captain to pay $390,000 in restitution for fleecing motorists and mishandling federal money.

And

Mann and Davis ran what prosecutors called their "own private toll road," on a section of U.S. 59 in Kendleton, a town of about 500 about 40 miles southwest of Houston, between November 1997 and May 2000.

At last! Someone finally goes to jail for running a speed trap. 'Bout time.
