The Joke- FDLE is "Premier" or "Elite"

FDLE has always been a lot more fluff than substance since Tim Moore became the commissioner.

But Swearingen "Takes the Cake"!!!

Be serious. RS is irrelevant.
He and his henchmen can’t see or accept the regions are becoming wastelands. Empty cubicles everywhere. Ask the employees who work there what it is like, but hurry before more jump ship!

Morale can’t go lower (ask Jax folks) because RS, TF and CP allow the SACs, ASACs and SASs to break policies and procedures. Intimidation, hostility, disrespect and arrogance is not leadership (ask the Jax and Tampa folks). Unacceptable F-bomb language, racism, homophobia and gender discrimination is not leadership (Jax & Tampa again). One set of Rules for them and another for rank and file isn’t management (every region).

Joke? Yes
Premier? No

And sure thing FDLE -WE the people and taxpayers of St. John’s county are still wondering how YOUR employee is not under investigation for the $750k in joint bank accounts. (He was Jax too). Above the law and your own policies?

In his first two years in office, Gov. Rick Scott became so friendly with bodyguard Rick Swearingen, that when Swearingen’s duty ended as special agent in charge of protecting the governor, Scott kept him on for plum assignments — trips to Paris, Japan and the college football championship.

According to travel records released by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, Swearingen held the unusual position of being both director of Capitol Police, in charge of security at the Capitol complex from May 2013 to December 2014, while also serving as the governor’s occasional bodyguard for long-distance travel.

Scott gave Swearingen a promotion in December. He forced FDLE Commissioner Gerald Bailey to retire or be fired, and unilaterally named Swearingen as Bailey’s successor as the state’s top law enforcement officer. The incident unleashed a firestorm of controversy when Bailey caught Scott falsely claiming that Bailey had “resigned” and Cabinet officials said they had been misled by Scott’s staff.

Swearingen, 55, a veteran FDLE agent, joined Scott’s protective operations team in September 2010. The duty of the security team is to protect Scott and his wife, Ann, wherever they go — a job that demands hours of intimate contact with the chief executive and his family. Scott, however, has gone to such lengths to shield the public from knowing where he travels and with whom that he has persuaded federal regulators to exempt his plane’s flight data from federal aviation logs.

Wonder where Desantis flies in his 15 million dollar jet? And for what purpose?
