You could pretend to be an officer and people do but it would be easy to verify both at the time and after the fact making it a rarity because its hard to pull off. Right now you could gather 3 bros and a van and snatch someone and it would probably take months to find out that they were murdered rather than in some holding facility or prison in El Salvador permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago I'd be surprised if the various cartels weren't already doing this to dispose of rivals tbh. permalink fedilink source parent
