SWAT and PIO Flop

Man found dead from self-inflicted gunshot wound in unincorporated St Pete. Hmm. They make it sound like this was a violent domestic followed by some heroic evacuations and then hours later BANG!!!! I don’t think so. I think it was a typical domestic. The female said she got beat up. The male said Eat Me and went back inside. Then they heard a bang. Then like 7 hours later our heroic SWAT team drove a robot into the house to find a dead guy. 7 HOURS. 7!!!! He could have died from a shaving cut in that time. What a crack SWAT Team that takes that long to do anything. Why does SWAT have ballistic vests with rifle plates anyway? They’re treated like little kids. Then again. 7 hours would have been plenty of time for the bad guy to fortify his position, load and position more guns and mount a fantastic offensive if he wanted. All that Ace SWAT experience is just shining through. I’m glad a dumb robot could replace a recon team with a camera pole. WTF man. That’s embarrassing. And the press release was wrong as usual. But hey. SWAT! SWAT! SWAT! Go!!!!!! Give them two banquets in 2020!!! Such great operators!! Real World Action SWAT Callouts - Still a Big Fat Zero!!!!!

It was 2 on duty SWAT guys and 3 TRT members for your info.

And a lieutenant, a captain, a major and an Ass Chief. Doesn’t sound like a simple patrol call to me. So because it was two SWAT guys and three ROBOT guys that wasn’t a SWAT Op? And it didn’t take 7 hours to figure out a guy shot himself dead?

Waiting 7 hours is ridiculous had to have cap/major and chief come out to make call to go in

No other dept would do that

Micromanagement at its very worst. Terrible leadership at this place. They don’t trust anyone. Can’t have good decisions made at an agency that is a top down system. And that’s what this place is. Ass Chief Jowell is the poster child for that leadership style. This place loves pussies.

Hmmm...which disgruntled member is the OP...who got snubbed when JB got the gig? Hmmm indeed.
