And not registering the donated car from the cab company to the police department, the cab company need to reposes the donated car to avoid a major liability on their part.
Signs of more bankrupt gov to come
Above the law is OK if you are a DEMOCRAT. Just look at the Clintons
Don't generalize all police departments just because some of the biggest, highest profile police departments are corrupt to the core.
Do you see any of those things on the various types of government owned military vehicles? USPS "owned" vehicles are maintained and inspected by certified mechanics and most likely better than the average POV. Leased vehicles are maintained, registered, and inspected to whatever level is required by the lease. GSA vehicles have government plates but I don't know who/how the maintenance is managed--I expect by a local contract maintenance provider.

According to an agreement signed in April, the struggling city will receive $600,000 for its new home, $415,000 to demolish a vacant and burned-out apartment complex and more than $200,000 annually over a 25-year period to fund basic operations - an amount equal to nearly half of the city's current budget.
this may explain a lot

Registered vehicles? What would be the point if they are painted and marked? They do not pay registration fees. Cool cars are given false registration usually in another state.
Please explain what laws, in that state were broken, 'cause the piss poor reporting skills shown in the report do not specify.

In our department we would ask the DMV for 1,000 exempt plates. The boxes would come in 6 months later and Equip numbers and exempt plates were put on cars.
When I put together a portable breathing air compressor trailer for our department it was issued an equipment number (toughest part of the the whole thing) and the Sgt went to DMV and got an exempt plate (easiest part) for it.
Again a non-journalist, half-assed, attention getting story with no information on any laws that they may have broken.
And you got sucked in.

Failing to transfer the title from the previous owner to the municipality and using them for enforcement of the same laws in my book creates an issue. I believe the quote below, taken from the article indicates a potential problem.
"The city has failed to register the motor vehicle. It's registered to someone in Barnhart, MO."
Fox 2 confirmed it. Then we ran the VIN on another car. It's currently registered to the St. Louis County Cab Company. We talked to the owner, Basil Rudawsky, who donated the vehicle more than a year ago. "
Not asked, and not known.

Did they fail to register it or did the DMV fail to enter the information?
Not asked, and not known.
If you watch the NEWS video they report that according to the Dept of Revenue the Police Dept failed to register their cars. this includes a police car that was involved in a crash during a pursuit.
Inquiring minds want to know!

There's no way in hell I'll ever believe a population of 449 can't get together and raise enough money for a lug nut.
I understand this city and these people are "poor folks". I'm familiar with being poor folks. I've been poor folks for three quarters of a century.
