Sadly what you say is very true. However, why is everyone giving Chief Public Safety Officer JD Patterson a pass. Under Carlos Gimenez administration, Patterson destroyed TNT, cut the police budget aka defunded the police, reorganized RID and reduced RID personnel. CST is destroyed. Narcotics is all but wiped out. Yet, no one calls out the man Patterson who is responsible for the increase in shootings and murders in Miami-Dade County.

Yesterday the Mayor and Commissioners met with Director Ramirez. Even during the Hearing, the Director was faced with the hard questions and criticisms, but JD Patterson was not standing by his side as the Chief Public Safety Officer.

While you guys come on this site to debate each other about work or don't work, this Patterson guy is collecting a large 6 figure salary to do absolutely nothing. The entire Department should be calling for JD Patterson's resignation. He never was pro-cop to began with.

WHY ISN'T THE PBA CALLING OUT JD PATTERSON for what he created when he destroyed all of the proactive units. Who suggested to get rid off HQ'S GANG UNIT????

A VOTE OF CONFIDENCE AND FULL PROTEST SHOULD BE MANDATORY AGAINST JD PATTERSON.

He receives almost 14, 000 a month for retirement. In addition approved 239,000 a year of tax payers dollars.

Tell this to the late Sandra Wilson who was shot multiple times by MDPD Officer Leon Storr, who was Patterson's good friend. She went to Patterson for help prior to the shooting. Instead of notifying PCB or Domestic Crimes Unit, and relieve Officer Storr of his duties, Patterson protected Storr, only talked to him, and did not take his FIREARM or credentials.

She reported domestic violence to then Division Chief JD Patterson. Yet just like John Jenkins, Officer Storr was protected.

Officer Storr shot Sandra Wilson several times and killed her, afterwards he shot and killed himself.

THIS IS THE PUBLIC SAFETY LEADER?????

Read the case:

WILSON v MIAMI-DADE COUNTY

It all there folks. How he became Director or Chief Public Safety Officer is really the QUESTION!!!!

WHY IS THE PBA NOT DEMANDING PATTERSON BE FIRE?????

JD Patterson is a sacred cow. He is Commissioner Barbara Jordan’s golden boy. She politicked Gimenez in 2012 and promised him the black vote in exchange for him becoming director.
She did so with the caviat that Patterson would protect her brother Mayor Otis Wallace in Florida City. Wallace runs a huge vice operation in Florida City.
Patterson went out and destroyed TNT to protect drug sales down south and at Miami Gardens. Neither FDLE or the FBI is willing to look at Patterson and Jordan. They are sacred cows.
These shootings stem out of Miami Gardens where Jordan’s other protege Thelma Noel-Pratt rules like an African Queen without care. Corruption to the core.

So let me get this straight. Director, for several years now you have made your “I’m smarter than a 6 grader” speech talking about how proactive police work doesn’t work. You made it several times. You put your little 3rd grade level sentences together to say that we will never go back to that because it just flat out didn’t work.

Now, after further ruining the morale of the department, even more than the previous idiot who is still in hiding from embarrassment, you realize that your hair brain idea is the one that doesn’t work. You realize that when-the criminals notice that the police are not out policing, bad things happen. Meanwhile you kneeled.

So according to you, actual policing is not good , unless everyone’s political career is on the line.

And now you come back and expect your troops to trust you? Telling them to go out and place their lives on the line now that it is SO out of control? To think that you have our backs? To expect you to stand behind us when things get tough? All in exchange for shorts and beards?

No confidence!

Absolutely no confidence in this agency anymore. Find competent leadership and maybe it will be restored.

Ouch!!!! That was accurate.

Freddo! Do yourself a favor and step down. Don’t worry, with your track record in leadership, you can still probably even become a Lieutenant for school board. you might even benefit from the English classes.
The sky is the limit for you.

FR, quit now while some people still like you. People don’t respect you as director but some of them still like you as a person. You can still rescue some of those relationships.

The way you are mismanaging this department, If you wait too long, they will all hate and detest you like the previous little dancing troll.

Neither of you have what it takes to be a director but at lease some people still like you. You might still even have some people show up to your retirement party. JP knew for a fact that no one would show up to his.

The Mayor will have to do something very soon. It is suicide for her too to keep him in that position. I give him 30 days.

Too little, TOO LATE! Nobody can turn this ship around, at this point. What you are witnessing is a combination of factors that have transpired over many years. Everything from the attacks on us by certain groups, to low morale and reduction of proactive units. This is a very dangerous environment now, pay attention to your surroundings!

Quote:

“Law enforcement as a whole has a very difficult task of doing our best to keep our community safe,” said Miami-Dade Police PIO Angel Rodriguez. “We do want the community to know that we have all of our resources available and we are doing everything, and we are maintaining our community safe. We will continue to work tirelessly until we make sure that everyone in this community feels safe.”

Translation:

“We have no F-ing idea what is going on. We are led by a fifth grader and he is surrounded by whoores. We are hoping the bad guys will turn themselves in soon so we can put this behind us and we can go ride around in the gay mobile. See you at the next mass shooting scene. Until then hide as best you can.”
