Oh, that's such a wonderful- excuse? "It wasn't THAT bad"?

He and his partner said they only ever committed crimes while in uniform. “The most I did were robberies while working, never outside of work,” Gondo said.
What'd they do?
The men stole money and drugs from citizens during traffic stops, after detaining them, and after falsifying affidavits to obtain search warrants and entering their homes, according to court records. They would turn off body cameras when they needed to, prepare false reports to conceal what they’d stolen, and coach one another on one how to give false testimony.
And just who were these bastards?
Gondo, nicknamed “G Money,” and six others were first arrested and indicted back in March. All of them were members of the Gun Trace Task Force, which works to get illegal guns off Baltimore’s streets. The men are accused of shaking down citizens for cash, falsifying court documents, and overtime fraud. An eighth officer was arrested and indicted in August.

So by his own admission he and his cohorts only committed those crimes while specifically behind the protection of their shields/badges.
