Came across this and found it peculiar. This also helps explain a curiosity I had in regards to why the US ignored the State of Montana's offer to take in Gitmo detainees.

Mysterious Private Security Firm Gets Control Of Empty Jail In Small Montana Town
By Justin Elliott September 30, 2009

shadowy private security company that has no known clients but claims to have helped foreign governments combat terrorism and will protect anything from cruise ships to Pakistani convoys has taken over a jail in a small Montana town, with plans to build a law enforcement training facility on the property.

The state legislature is looking into the matter and residents of Hardin, MT, were alarmed last week when executives from the firm, American Police Force, showed up in the town, which does not have its own police department, with Mercedes SUVs bearing "City Of Hardin Police Department" decals....

Thanks Mic the reporter who originally broke the story of this group taking over was at the time driving a beat up Dodge Intrepid with a broken tie rod. Not long after her initial report she quit her reporters job and took A NEW POSITION AS SPOKES PERSON FOR THE VERY SAME FIRM. The American police Force along with the new position she got a brand new Mercedes to drive not a bad upgrade . they have gone to great lengths to prevent the knowledge of this group being part of Blackwater as you can see from Info wars website the link to the APF web site can not be viewed but the screen shots they got from the site and posted to the article shows the company address as being one and the same as Blackwater
