Hey Juan Perez -- Here is an old idea that used to be done that may relieve manpower

In the 60s and 70s, there were special deputy sheriff's who were sworn in as sheriffs, but worked for other parties besides the county. The arch diocese had special deputy sheriff's who had arrest powers on the property of the dioceses. Anthony L. Novak is one of the names you can have someone look up in micofilm and verify the information.

Florida State Statute 30.09 allows the authorization of such.

How about making the seaport and JMH get their security guards sworn as special deputies with the arrest powers while on-duty on those properties, and free up those MDPD units for actual districts? Same goes with hiring some special deputys for prisoner transport for north and south operations. If corrections wont play ball you can hire someone at a psa salary rate to do it, and can also determine the amount of authority they have, if any.

Deputys = Deputies

Such a dumb thread.

Why is that? Please educate all of us? You are probably one of the slugs at pob, that would be scared of doing actual police work in a district. We are running ragged here and any idea is not stupid.

Like you said, this is not a new concept.
Remember when officers were hired to work the airport at a lower pay scale and wore the white shirts?
Do you remember what happened?
That's why people are afraid to try stuff like that; it has a habit of back firing.
No good deed goes unpunished.

Some of those directors of the past may have had issues but none has had as many as the current MDPD director. Here is a guy who openly politicked to get Mayor Carlos Gimenez elected. He participated in Gimenez's campaign fundraisers in 2012 and 2016. He also sabotaged an absentee ballot fraud conducted by our PCU in 2012 that uncovered Gimenez's campaign manager illegally collected hundreds of absentee ballots for Gimenez at his campaign headquarters. Throughout the whole time he fed details of the investigation to Gimenez and later on disbanded the PCU bureau that uncovered and investigated the fraud to protect Gimenez. And all of this he did for a promotion and a pay raise. His badge is as soiled as the mud at the bottom of the Miami River.

Oh please, give me a break.
Like this is something new? Remember all of the IGB leased trucks carrying Alvarez' signs being driven by on-duty people; IGB personnel carrying Alvarez' signs at the voting stations. That was a total political whorehouse ran by a reservist appointed to a command position over career sworn personnel.

Here is your break. I don't remember Frank Vicin influencing or obstructing the Public Corruption Bureau to drop an absentee ballot fraud investigation into Alvarez'opponent. Well, that is exactly what our darling JP did to protect Gimenez. If that is not enough for you then you have not heard about the political fundraising he did for Gimenez. If you think our department is better off today than it was under Alvarez then there is nothing that can be said here to convince you otherwise.
