Fenton, population 226, brings in over $1 million per year through its mayor’s court, an unusual justice system in which the mayor can serve as judge even though he’s responsible for town finances.

    I’m from this area. A mayor got in trouble for embezzlement a few year ago. Look it up.

          With the size of the population, is it safe to assume they’re not sending out a helicopter search patrol if you were to say…not stop and just outrun the Ford?

          Or is it that part of the south where discontinuing pursuits is based on how the officer “feels” vs actual safety regulations?
