Hialeah police chief Sergio Velazquez was just fired, in part due to his protection of serial rapist cop Jesus Menocal Jr.
From protecting narcotics wholesalers to ripping off drug dealers to raping women and children the Menocal family has always been a black eye in law enforcement.

Quote from the Miami Herald:

" Nothing seemed to derail him (Velazquez) — not even a scandal that would lead to the arrest of one of his police officers charged with sexually assaulting a handful of teenage girls and young women while on duty. In December 2019, FBI agents arrested Jesús Menocal Jr., a decorated Hialeah patrol sergeant, on charges of violating the female victims’ civil rights. He faces trial next year.
In 2016, Velázquez had decided to put Menocal back on the street with a badge and a gun after previously assigning him to desk duty during a state investigation of the sexual assault allegations against him — despite a subsequent FBI probe of the same accusations. The scandal forced Velázquez to defend not only his handling of Menocal’s case but his overall leadership of the department. “He knew all about this [Menocal case] — he knew about it from day one,” said former Hialeah police officer Juan Iglesias, who retired from the force in 2019 after Velázquez fired him the previous year when Iglesias legally challenged the department over its policy of filling ticket quotas. “This guy was just as liable as Menocal.”

Yet Diaz continues to carry that POS Ignacio Menocal on the payroll.
