SWAT and PIO Flop

[Unregistered]

Don't fret guys...Sean Jowell showed up and made the tough call. We were all very impressed (yawn). The second guessing and Monday morning quarterbacking nowadays is beyond ridiculous. Anybody here remember when Sergeants were allowed to make decisions? The Mohrman, Fairchild, Ferdon days are long gone. I'd say watch your back, but that goes without saying, and watch each other - but there is so much back stabbing and personal attacks of Deputies being "beta-boys"(?) it make you want to puke.

You are so right. Everyone is scared of their own shadow and afraid to make a decision. They should have called Bob on the scene and let him decide. That's the secret to working in a micromanaged environment - push any risky decision to the higher ups. Let them figure it out while you stay out of it. This way if it goes sour it's on them.

Almost the exact same thing happened a few weeks ago. SWAT called out, everyone stood around for hours, they sent a robot in, and he was dead upstairs after countless hours of people standing around. It’s just such a joke anymore. Nobody can do their job without command pulling the strings.
