Failure

Lead us? He’s destroying this department and officer morale. He has no loyalty to the rank and file. If your not one of the good old boys or girls in his click you will never be selected for any specialized unit. Even if they post a job - most times they don’t - the Chief has already picked his favorite. No selection process and no interviews. The same thing happens with promotions through the rank of Captain. I wonder how all the Sergeants who have done their time feel when they see just promoted Sergeants get those specialized units, and again, no selection process, no interviews. Then you watch the same group move from cake job to cake job until they are promoted up the chain. How many times have we watched this happen? I’m going to make a prediction. First a Sergeant in investigations is going to be promoted to Lieutenant (no interviews). Second the Traffic Sergeant is going to get the investigative Sergeant spot (no interviews). Guess that just depends on who you are. Then the Chief decides the best way to deal with a problem child is to hide them in SET. Let’s not make the supervisors deal with the problem they let happen under their watch. And to all you officers that have been working hard and put in for the SET position...Sorry!!. And Finally a certain new female officer is already slated for the investigative position. Maybe it’s time for the rank and file to force a contract change with the City to start having a fair process of filling open positions and testing for all ranks through Captain. That will be the only way to stop the cronyism, favoritism, and the vindictive behavior of this Chief. Or maybe it’s time for a class action lawsuit to stop this. We all know a Rod really has our back, doesn’t he.
