Promos 2015

[Unregistered]

Chief Holloway has my support. I pray he stays strong and on task and makes positive changes around here. We needed a strong outsider to come in here and move us out of the past and into the future, as a agency our thinking is 20 years behind the times. We have been stagnant for a long time and people around here are happy to remain in the same position for years. Holloway represents a move to the future and a sense of career building and broadening our experiences so we bring more to the table instead of a small fixed bag of tricks. We are now through the holidays and let's just give him a little more time to fix the problems around here and show that he has not lost his way.

Don't worry Jimbo will have everything turned upside down inside out shortly. Give him a chance

All I got out of this article: http://theweeklychallenger.com/repai...mmunity-forum/

was that the rest of the community acknowledges that the problems starts in the families, and the way people approach police, and that it needs to change. You managed to quote the one crazy Uhuru quote about their stupid occupation nonsense.

Holloway's never run a large dept. and there's a gaping knowledge shortfall. He likes hearing yes & Kriseman likes it when the Slimes yesses him for yessing Holloway. Keep saying yes to the chief & watch the wheels fall off.

The way I see it things are better at the SPPD then they've been in decades. Keep it coming Chief Holloway!!!!!

If you had to work with most of our staff you would need a 2 week vacation also.....it's tiring dealing with bafoons in the likes of Luke, Beahn, Soto, Cheryl, McKinney and others.

Props to Ms P mentioned in post #4 for getting busy on posts #3 and #9. Smoothe move! Number 7 on the Lt list leapfrogs to the top!!

[trust or not?]

Chief Holloway has my support.

The PBA announced in the paper that they strongly support the chief. In fact the word "LOVE" was used. That's quite a commitment of trust. If the boss is all that, can someone tell me why we should continue paying union dues? especially now that the PBA thinks the chief has our best interests in mind?

[Risky business]

Great big gigantic kudos to the mystery persons who spilled the beans to interested parties. The worms have been crop dusted.

the Uhuru Movement in St. Pete: “We have control over the police—who is hired in the black community, who is fired, who is investigated"

extended message: "we picked the chief, we control promotions and transfers, we direct policy changes" (such as that wildhairyazzed ignorant unprofessional and potentially illegal non-arrest directive in the chief's infamous Hug-A-Thug memo.

Bingo, we have a winner! ^

Amy Foster wants a "Second Chance" program, the backroom-dealing coalition wants a 3rd and 4th chance. She'll figure it out

Didn't take long.

The axles are scraping pavement. It's risky business a/k/a Ricky business. And it's not handsome --> http://www.saintpetersblog.com/archives/172835

[#fragrantUntruths]

As an outsider to SPPD myself, keep in mind the rest of the county thinks your agency is trying to secede from Pinellas and state jurisdiction. Tsk tsk for trying to "reduce crime" by jiggering the process. Feel for you guys that know better.

"Kanika Tomalin said that youth 'who need love rather than lockup' is one of Kriseman’s biggest priorities, and he’s looking for a new police chief who will support that vision."

"The city is now just weeks from implementing a new system designed to steer hundreds of young people away from the criminal justice system."
PEANUT GALLERY - Kameel, is this a misprint or was somebody fibbin you? Chief H's vaca plans seem to have interefered with the deadline. Plus it was a half baked concept from the get go so therefore, no can do.

"This is a different program than we've ever done," said Karl Nurse.
PEANUT GALLERY - You got that right but #nothappening.

Adding to what fragrantUntruths said earlier, in the Kameel Stanley piece the number of youths going into SPPD's extralegal plan for early Jan 2015 was stated to be 500. Fortunately with outside oversight that dangerous plan will almost certainly be stopped dead in its tracks. Dangerous yes...it's like a highway billboard directing all juveniles in the County to do their crimes in St. Petersburg where the rules are different. A reality check is on the way with the probability of even more outside scrutiny of SPPD ops in this and other areas. The overinflated 500 figure is more like 50 when SPPD admin is brought to heel.
