Is This a Shakedown?

The city of highland park seized a building and then said, you can have it back if you just buy us two police weyu mean, why was it appropriate? I'm not the mayor, sire. You're the erly boss of the city attorney. That's what i do. Thisis, this is a crime. Reh their doing is criminal. It certainly seems like a crime, at least on the face of it.
