Officer Wade Collier approached, sneering, \u201cNice costume. Stolen valor\u2019s a felony.\u201d Malik calmly offered his ID. Collier drew his gun, shoved him, and cuffed him.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"496\" data-end=\"737\">At the precinct, Collier tried booking him for impersonation. Malik ordered, \u201cRun my ID through the federal system.\u201d The screen revealed Malik was a decorated Special Operations Commander. Within minutes, Navy JAG and FBI agents descended.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"739\" data-end=\"971\">Collier\u2019s arrest unraveled a decade of abuse: racketeering, civil rights violations, and the cover-up of a local teen\u2019s death.

Collier received <strong data-start=\"938\" data-end=\"968\">58 years in federal prison<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"973\" data-end=\"1160\">Malik retired from the Navy and returned home to run for County Sheriff.
