Police Blotter: The Austin (Tex.) Police Department announced in January that it had suspended Officer Scott Lando, 45, based on preliminary indications that he had been hiring a prostitute while on duty. According to a search warrant affidavit (disclosed in the Austin American-Statesman), Lando had paid for the woman's services in part by giving her a free run on Mrs. Lando's closet, declaring that his wife "would never miss" some of the outfits.
