Are you a deputy? >> Yes, sir. >> Why are you driving so crazy, man? >> Nine investigates Florida officers. Two, three. >> Caught breaking laws they're sworn to protect. >> So, I know I messed up. >> Tonight, we reveal hundreds [music] of officers arrested for driving drunk and a system that often lets them keep their badge. >> Here's just a portion of some of those cases. We found officers got pulled over for drunk driving, but only faced department discipline and not an arrest. Another was allowed to call a friend for a ride home. And some officers fled down to reckless driving tickets with no DUI arrest on their record. >> Now, if you or I got caught swerving after a few beers, there'd be cuffs, fines, and jail. But with a badge, apparently, it's more of a learning experience. Florida's descertification board can pull licenses, but most of these officers just get a slap, a suspension, or a transfer. Internal investigations, they end quietly and the public never sees the paperwork. Guess accountability depends on who's holding the handcuffs.
