Re: New Chief
Your info is totally incorrect. Cannon is a standup guy. He always defended the troops when they deserved defending. He held those in his command to the highest standards and led by example. He was always assigned to units that needes to be straightened out. Where ever he worked morale was high. There were always those who were discontent because he made everyone do there job and if he didn't they were transferred, no matter who there mentors were. CG you would be lucky to have him as your Chief.

Re: New Chief
The poster is totally incorrect and I'm not a SWAT guy. First I think it is funny that people on here are fighting over a retired chief from another department who, based on the number of applicants, has one chance in a hundred of being hired at CGPD. Second, these negative posts are being written by some one at the city that was a slug and had to be dealt with.
IA doesnt investigate Sexual Harrassment/EEOC complaints at the city. So that info is wrong. The officer filed numerous complaints against anything and anyone to try to make a case against the city. She was finally paid off to go away. She got very little to leave and did not recieve a pension. The city pensioin board determines who gets a pension and and you cant get one in a settlement with the city legal department, so wrong again. The officer was a total Baker Act, but played the system for all she could get out of it. Cannons involvement was as the SWAT Commander and not letting her talk to a Baker Act on a CIT call out because she was a baker herself.
Cannon is very tough but very fair. I doubt he will come to CGPD, but we could do a lot worse

Taken from Gables Gazette:
Coral Gables is out of control. It is starting to look like Homestead. Most Directors are out.
The Police Department is a mess. The Naue Group; Chief Naue, Major Hiddak & Major Ginn in one group with support from the FOP they are supporting Tom Cannon(ex-City of Miami) for the Chiefs position in exchange for a promise to make Huddak an Asst. Chief later. They are trying to influence the commissioners and mayor. Huddak’s wife an Asst. Director for Miami Dade County is pulling all the strings and calling in all the favors.
The Ana Baxiauli Group; Major Pedroso, Major McNichols & Major Massington in the other group with support from Liz Hernandez (City Atty) & Commissioner Cabrera. They are pushing for Major Pedroso. They are plotting and trying to get votes on the commission to get Salerno out before Liz is canned.
What an embarrassment of a police department. They actually think they know what they are doing. A bunch of pre-Madonna’s.
How does the FOP President who is the son in-law of Chief Naue work out of the Chiefs Office directly for him?
Has anyone ever heard of nepotism?
Can anyone say ethics commission?
Patrick G. Salerno he works for you and a direct representation on you. They say you (manager) are trying to save money by not naming a Chief so you are saving on the Asst. Chiefs position salary that is vacant. That is $120,000 in savings. In the mean time, we are in limbo, no chief, no asst. chief and a bunch of major’s wannabe chiefs. What a mess!
Wake up and smell the coffee.
This department is going to hell fast in a breadbasket. Morale is the lowest I have seen in 15 years, the infighting pins officers against others and everyone is pissed off. That is how they treat the public. This area patrol stuff is crap, it does not work, and the rookies handle all the calls. The older people hang out all day. It is good for me but not good for the citizens of Coral Gables.
The COPS need help, leadership, not a bunch of spineless politicians!

Re: New Chief
Folks Tom Cannon from MPD is only one of many qualified applicants for your chief's job. Assuming that the allegations mentioned here were true, and I know they are not, you would still be better off with Cannon as a chief than say the walking legend Frank Fernandez, AKA Boy King. GOD help you if your stupid City Manager, Salerno picks this idiot. Good luck to you.

Re: New Chief
I was finally able to speck with the City Manager and advised him that Chief Naue is doing a fine job and should remain as the Chief.

Re: New Chief
The Office of Internal Affairs of the City of Miami Police Department is divided into two units, General Investigation and Pro-Active/Corruption. The investigations are document via a system called IA Pro. They maintain all files on police personnel and other City employees. Some are public and others are not (Criminal intelligence). IA Pro also maintains the Early Warning System (EWS) a flagging system of behavior. EWS 1 maintains records of complaints, reprimands and suspensions. EWS 2 maintains records of “Response to Resistance” reports and EWS 3 maintains records of police related shootings.
Investigative Sergeants assigned to the General Investigation side monitor and attend court hearings regarding all issues outside the department including federal and state cases. They include lawsuits and EEOC complaints. They report their observations via the IA Pro system to documents all behavior of City employees as the City may assume liability at some point in the litigation.
On January 13, 2003, in U.S. District Court, Southern District of Florida (Miami) Officer Daisy Montes was the plaintiff in a 442 Civil Rights Job Discrimination (Sex) suit. The Defendant was the City of Miami based on the actions of TC. The Civil Docket Case # is 1:03-cv-20065-ASG. TC received a reprimand for the incident and the reprimand is in the IA Pro system and in his personnel file.
Regarding retirement and pension; Officers in good standing who meet the rule cannot be denied their pension by anyone including the pension board, it is the law. The board can only deny pension on very few situations, which are govern by statues. In fact, the board would not hear it. For all intended purposes, she completed her entire career. It was just paid by the City of Miami for the last six years.

Re: New Chief
Sorry MM, he is clean. Better get your facts straight. Why are you so concerned what happened at the city? Are you a city guy that got spanked for being a screw up?
IA had nothing to do with the law suit. She got a pay out that had nothing to do with TC. She didnt retire.
