Talking Points Memo has been investigating the how and why American Police Force (also known as American Private Police Force) came to receive a lucrative contract to (depending on the story) run a private jail, fill the jail with prisoners, provide police services and/or provide police training services at a now-empty jail in Hardin, MT.
American Police Force/American Private Police Force has offices at 1202 E 17th St, Santa Ana, CA, which is a short walk from Popeye's Chicken on 17th.
Even though this is a Santa Ana based company, the local press hasn't covered the story. Talking Points Memo has the story about the questionable Montana deal, supposed ties to Blackwater, Glen Beck, and driving big, black Mercedes around with Hardin Police Department logos. Oh, and the Montana Attorney General has filed a suit against asking them to prove claims on their website.
