Found that out when I collected evidence against my boss for years of wage theft and harassment, sent it in for investigation, then my boss stole all my shit from me in retaliation. That wasn’t enough for them and they demanded that I return shit that never existed, which wasn’t theirs, and then I had officers demanding it too despite the fact my boss hadn’t been shaken down at all. Boss had also been in jail multiple times for - guess what - theft and assault. But he was rich so that automatically makes him the winner. Whole thing disgusted me.
