Miami Police Department Now Has A “Mask Enforcement Unit”
As if the police don’t have enough to do, a team of 39 police officers in Miami will be dedicated solely to enforcing mask violations.
Miami Mayor Francis Suarez announced on Tuesday that the city has started cracking down on wearing masks. Miami officers will fine people $50 for the first offense of not wearing their mask, $100 for the second offense and $500 for the third violation. Any additional offense could lead to being arrested.
Miami is also looking into banning private parties of more than 10 people. They plan on using social media to track down these parties.
Maybe this will be made into a CSI spinoff on CBS? CSI: Mask Enforcement Unit. It could work.
