The Fraternal Order of Police

John, We’ve used the word ‘supervillain’ a lot to describe Carlos Vega — the challenger who lost in a landslide to District Attorney Larry Krasner two weeks ago in Philly. But there is a much larger and MUCH more dangerous supervillain out there, and they’ve infiltrated just about every level…
