ONE OF OUR FINEST FIRED

I'm not sure if the moderator is going to erase this, but I'll give it a try.

Without naming any names, everyone within the agency should be now know the root cause of the SV termination.

Sadly, the officer that testified against him has a long history of perjury (lying). It all started when he was actually fired from a Palm Beach Police Dept many years ago for PERJURY (public record).

Then, he came to Lauderhill. Once here, he was fired for attacking another police officer in the parking lot but got his job back through arbitration. Then, he made his way into traffic where he does nothing outside of whats required to get by. He has gone out of his way to lie and deceive the administration on numerous "officer involved" and "fire involved" traffic crashes. Why is he this way? I guess we'll never know.

SV was an excellent cop. A "go getter, " who truly loved his career. Everyone that knew him knew that he had an extremely strong personality but never meant any harm. He joked a lot with his peers because that's what cops do. His true passion was police work.

Then, the animosity began between SV and that older officer within the traffic unit. SV wanted the unit to work as a whole and wanted team effort. Most agreed except for the older officer whom has a history of "screwing" cops with regards to crashes, attacking officers and getting fired for perjury. For goodness sakes, the man wanted 2 of our cops ticketed for leaving the scene of traffic crashes but thankfully those in charge laughed at him. Anyways, this older officer disliked him because SV destroyed him in the areas of ticket writing, pro-activity, traffic blitzes, DUI Stops and EVERYTHING else that traffic is supposed to do. So what did this older officer do. He took advantage of SV's allegation and used it against him, ultimately destroying his career in LE.

It's very interesting reading if anyone wants to learn about one or two of their officers. One still works in traffic (older guy; no names :roll: ) and one is prior traffic and is now an FTO on day shift. Their statements to IA will surprise you.

SV, it was great working with you and along side of you. I am so sorry that it had to end this way but know that you were truly a legend at LPD. Stay safe and good luck out there.

JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
In 2009, the Broward County Human Rights Division found that former police officer Theresa Williams, 34, suffered retaliation at the hands of Lauderhill Police Chief Ken Pachnek. Now, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has issued similar findings. The U.S. Depart-ment of Justice is monitoring the case, which means it could file a lawsuit on Williams’ behalf. Williams filed a complaint alleging gender discrimination after she was passed over for promotion in 2008. The gender discrimination charge was not substantiated, but the allegations of retaliation for filing the complaint were. Williams, 34, said that after filing the complaint, she was stripped of her normal duties, and started getting reprimands along with charges of workplace violations. Now, she has filed a new charge of retaliation against the department after she was fired in March from her $65,000-a-year job.

Sorry the link did not work. did you read the comment posted @ the bottom of the page? Is any part of it true, does anyone know what really happened with Tucker? Capt. Stanley was promoted in 2006 Was her promotion influenced by her alleged involvement with Tucker? WTF!!!

Hopefully the Chickens are coming home to roost for Chief Pachnek and the LHPD.What former Officer Wm.s may need to do to resuscitate her EEOC Gender Discrimination charge is research the particulars regarding the sudden departure of former Asst. Chief Tucker in 2008.

Ms. Wms. may learn that Tucker's 2008 Departure may have been directly related to the fact that personal E-Mails were revealed to Chief Pachnek, the Mayor and the City Mgr. Depicting a sexual relationship between the current Public Information Officer who was promoted to Capt. in 2006 and the former Asst. Chief.

What Ms. Wms. needs to understand is the 2008 Promotions were perhaps a feeble attempt to prevent the opening of potential flood gates of a large amount of litigation from all of the People who were passed over during the 2006 Promotions, due to the fact that two of the highest ranking members of the LHPD's Command Staff, were if their personal E-Mails are believed to be true sexually involved, neither one of them should have ever had the right to conduct evaluations of their peers particularly since the current Public Info Officer had an unfair advantage, as she was being graded on a curve or her curves by her Superior Officer who was 2nd in Command. Ms. Williams you have a legitimate grievance as does anyone else that was passed over during the rash of 2008 promotions, everyone should have received a promotion because the playing field for the 2006 Promotions which was the precipice for the 2008 Promotions, was never fair or balanced. Why do you think the former 2nd in Command disappeared so quickly and they briefly suspended the current Public Info Officer, from her Captain's duties? In fact, you may want to review what type of evaluations both the former Asst. Chief and current Capt. gave you and compare those evaluations with the former 2nd in Command's evaluations of the current Capt. He may have been evaluating something altogether different, which was not fair to you or any of the other candidates who sought a Promotion in 2006. Ms. Williams move quickly to obtain all the relevant data which will help your cause from Lauderhill, because they have a strong history of suppressing Records. The former 2nd in Command should also move quickly, to the STD Clinic as it turns out, his former Command Staff Colleague provided testimony in a 2007 Deposition that, she has been infected for over 10 years with a STD that Penicillin can't cure because there is no cure, you just keep it forever like luggage.

Looks Like there may be some internal secrets, that have been covered up. I have always been curious about how things ended with both Hurst & Tucker. the sfl Times posted yet another comment. What Gives?

LHPD DOJ. RETALIATION IS THE NORM

Ms. Williams, if your desire to advance was perceived as a threat, by the Top Brass of Lauderhill, it’s logical that, they may have conspired against you, after all there can only be one QUEEN BEE, review the 2006 Promotions as well as what happened to the Careers of the dearly departed Major Hurst and Cell Phone Gate and Sgt. Harnish's @ the end of his career with "Injury Gate",

Shaffer was promoted to the rank of Capt., in 2008, although during the 2006 Promotional proceedings the Chief originally required the caveat that all Candidates who sought advancement possess a College Degree, consequently Shaffer was ineligible during the 2006 Promotions because, he did not have a College Degree. However when the former Asst. Chief, Tucker bolted subsequent to the revelation of the SEX Scandal between Tucker and the infected Capt. Stanley, Shaffer, who previously did not meet the 2006 criteria was suddenly promoted to the Rank of Capt. Chief Pachnek, clearly never wanted Shaffer to attain the Level of Capt. with the LHPD thus Shaffer maintained the role briefly before he was allowed to retire with the Rank of Capt. And then quickly transitioned into the role as Asset Maintenance Coordinator, for the LHPD. Sounds a whole lot better than what, the Chief as well as those who were willing to do his bidding did to Ms. Wms. Don't be afraid to get your Race Card out, N.O.B.L.E. may be proud of the fact that Lauderhill has two Black Women Captains a Black Assistant Chief and three Black Lieutenants however the Chief needed to create a divergence from the truth concerning the Command Staff Sex Scandal between Tucker and Stanley, which may have had a direct affect in the prevention of your advancement with the LHPD. It's a shame that the domino affect of the 2008 promotions were due to Capt. Stanley's willingness to sexually compromise herself Superior Officer, former Asst. Chief Tucker. No one can cry Racism under the present Day Command Staff Alignment because given their History, that's the last thing the City of Lauderhill needs.

Ms. Wms., hurry before the relevant Data is suppressed or vanishes, like the former Asst. Chief did, when the truth was revealed about him & the INFECTED Capt. Stanley. Open up the Pandora's Box, and expose the complete truth about the wicked machinations of the LHPD, there certainly are many People who have been similarly arrayed in Lauderhill that will applaud your Actions.

The true victims in all of this are the citizens of Lauderhill. Over the years, many city employees have been fired due to personal and malice reasons. Most have been fully reinstated at the expense of the taxpayers. Yet programs are cut, services are limited, and employees are laid off, all in the name of funding issues. The people responsible, should be held personally accountable and have to pay for these mistakes with their own funds. Instead, they have a large piggybank filled with other people’s money and can spend it at will, because there are no reprisals for their actions. If you need to pick up or file a police report in Lauderhill, don’t bother because the office may be closed. All the employees working in that department have been laid off due to budgeting issues. The media should inquire about the number of people fired and the expense associated, when it is later determined the terminations were unjustified. The answer will be shocking and perhaps the citizens will demand a change in leadership.

Years ago, Lauderhill was known as the reject department because everyone hired were rejected or fired by another agency. After years of working to change that image, we have slowly slipped back into the gutter and once again become the laughingstock of police departments. Do us all a favor chief, leave now and take your incompetent command staff with you. Then they will be free to sleep with one another all they want!
