@jtwcornell91 @dneary @robincafolla Not that I am aware of. Derek Chauvin (Floyd's murderer) lived in Oakdale, which is not only not neither in Minneapolis but two counties removed from his jurisdiction.
Someone from my high school became a police officer himself (not a friend), and his wife confided their living outside of Coon Rapids, which is — falling into the same category I mentioned — is also yet another county removed.
This kind of thing is a trope among locals …

@matt @dneary @robincafolla I remember I had a neighbor who worked in the Medical Examiner's office in New Orleans, and she was required to live in the city. It looks like the residency requirement for city employees does not extend to the police there either.
