Sorry!

Saw Police Chief resigning and got excited.

1. We dodged a bullet down here. Batts was a mess down in Long Beach

already, and that department was riddled with problems. I don't understand the hire.

[MineralMan]

2. Excellent!

[leveymg]

3. Accountability! Finally! But, why does it only seem to apply to local government? Rarely, at that

[Aerows]

9. Not the same guy

This guy quit last week before this latest mess occurred.

13. ;-(

4. The only one left is the city administrator. The city mayor has already apologized. nt

[Aerows]

7. Not the same guy

This guy quit last week. Jordan was the one involved this time.

5. Good.

There should be some other cops that followed him, if not now, then fired later.

[Aerows]

6. Jordan was the one involved in this latest Mess

Not Batts. He resigned last week. Now you have a new Chief, and he messed up.

[cui bono]

11. Well I read your post.

Do you think there's a reason why right after he resigned they went in like that? Was he resisting doing it? Perhaps he resigned in protest himself?

[Aerows]

14. It's possible

If so, he should be thanked for at least declining to participate.

8. Good start.

[SoCalNative]

10. Article is dated Oct 11th

so he apparently resigned before the most current debacle

[panzerfaust]

12. "... a once proud, professional department ...!"

Like, when was THAT?!?

I guess he must mean like back in the good ol' days when Oakland PD could shoot down someone like Black Panther Lil' Bobby Hutton and just walk away without having to explain why a man who had stripped down to his underwear to show that he was unarmed was shot more than a dozen times as he tried to surrender to Oakland police?
