    Authorities say Roberts was involved in a bizarre encounter at a vape shop there.

    oh hell yeah. also not his first rodeo....

    On Sept. 1, 2022, Roberts allegedly posed as a police officer at the Shedd Aquarium, where he told a Chicago police sergeant he was an off-duty cop “escorting a foreign delegate to the dolphin show,” according to a police report. He wasn’t arrested and drove away in a red Tesla.

    exquisite reporting detail.

    I can't even go on every paragraph is its own story with this guy. trying to buy a uniform, restraining order from wife. dude is firing on all cylinders. just can't let go of the life where people were forced to respect his authority.

    Pretending to be a cop at a vape store and an aquarium. He should get an Emperor Norton pass where people let him pretend to be a cop as long as he's just escorting diplomats to the dolphin exhibit and harassing small business owners.
