Six months of an investigation, more than $10,000 to travel to Indiana for the raid and another $55,000 to pay a retired judge for a report, the Batmobile saga comes to a stunning conclusion.
"Public trust and policing and public safety requires the sheriff's office never be perceived in its use of police power to be influenced by private or political relationship."
Racop told us on Tuesday, the ordeal cost his business $350,000, he estimates, and it has taken a personal toll. He's going in for a mental health evaluation for PTSD. "Because of this, I see a sheriff car go past. I freak, even just for a moment, you know, it might only be 30 seconds or maybe even 15 seconds. But that's not me."
In the meantime, he's making good progress on other Batmobiles. Anagnostou's is now 3.5 years away from completion. Racop explains, "I cannot believe that it's taking sometimes up to a year to get a chassis. And it's taking six months to get a drive train. It's really crazy." So, six months of an investigation, more than $10,000 to travel to Indiana for the raid, $55,000 to pay Judge Smith for her report. She concluded, "Ensuring the appropriate expenditure of public funds should always be of the highest priority."
