Shouldn't the inventory of a squad car be taken after anyone had access to it? This kid could have been shocking others for goodness sake!

Sounds like father and son have deeper issues than stealing (the taser). Dorks.

They sound very strange. But why was the Taser gun accessible to anyone sitting in the squad car??
