WHAT A HEEL!: Cop And Robber
By all measures, Christian A. Torres was on track to have a stellar career with the NYPD, reports The New York Times: “He’d earned a 3.6 grade-point average at John Jay College of Criminal Justice while holding down … part-time jobs. He became a leader in the Police Department’s cadet program. In July 2007, he traded his books for a gun belt and joined the Police Academy. Six months later, he was on patrol in the Brooklyn subways.” Torres allegedly had another part-time job no one knew about. He was a serial bank robber, committing “three robberies at two branches of Sovereign Bank - twice in Manhattan and once in Pennsylvania - apparently using some of the $118,305 for a new car, for a diamond engagement ring for his girlfriend and to pay off his student loans.”
