Your Sheriff is a *******

I can suspending some involved in the crash box derby. But you suspend a guy for responding as a back up? And couldnt you single out a few directly involved in stead of 13 deputies? The Hernando County Sheriff is a total *****. I'd be looking for a job elsewhere ASAP. In stead of punishing all your guys may be you should give them better driving instruction. Jack Azz.

yeah, we know. try working for him. sad fact is we're stuck with him for 5 more years.

SHERIFF , WHY DONT YOUR DEPUTIES GET MORE THAN THE BARE CJST FDLE ACADEMY DRIVING INSTRUCTION? YOU SHOULD GET OFF YOUR RUMP AND BUILD A POLICE PAD THAT THE GUYS CAN TRAIN ON.

This is pathetic!
It is the cost of doing business. This is law enforcement after all!

Give the deputies a medal. A few cars go damaged? oh well, the cars are a tool. They can be fixed.
Teach your deputies on how to perform a PIT maneuver.

Lets reward all criminals that drive hard and fast with their freedom. Now let's punish all the Deputy's for chasing this guy cause God know's every time a Deputy drives fast it's gonna cause a fatal car crash. Give me a break, as soon as someones nuts drop, maybe you will be alloyed to chase criminals again. Until then enjoy the shade under your favorite tree becasue it doesn't pay to try and make a difference.

SAD PART IS THAT NUGENT NEVER WORKED THE ROAD IN HIS LIFE AND EVEN KNOW WHATS ITS LIKE DEALING WITH PEOPLE

FYI all of these deputies just completed 8 hours of training in DRIVING and the POLICY review this year. PLUS the Capt of patrol had everyone review the same policy 3 months ago. They SCREWED up and the reason the Sgt was suspended was because the deputies in this chase were not truthful in reporting the SPEEDS to him. It was WRONG for what they did. And by the way they did it to them selfs. Thank God no was killed in this incident. Pinellas County has its own problems you can deal with them and we will take care of our own.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Oh by the was the policy has not changed they can still pursue they just need to follow the rules.

Refernce your comment,
They suspended the Sgt because they were not truthful to him. That is why your Sheriff"s invetsigation and suspensions is soooooo way off. I do agree that every PD and SO has it's own issues. And if your going to punish or send a message do it to the ones directly involved. Back-up Deputies, that was Weak. They only thing he accomplished was setting your morale and attitude back. Thats it.

Why punish the Sgt. when grown men and women are the deputies purposely lying to him about their speeds? Nugent get some balls and stop looking for a fall guy like always!

The Sgt is in charge he is responable.... Bottom Line Nugent did the right thing. Km you need the whole story not what the St. Pete Time wrote :x :x :x :
