Will punta gorda chief get fired for citizens academy death

[Unregistered]

Do you think the chief will be fired over this citizens Academy death?

[Unregistered]

Yes he should b charged with negiligent homicide

He stated he would take 100% responsibility for the death. You would think he would have stepped down by now. That law suit is going to be a killer.

Why is TOM LEWIS still the police chief? I thought he was stepping down or taking 100% responsibility for the death?! Typical BS.

Interesting story on WINK.

Regardless of that, WHY is the K9 officer still employed? HIGH RISK LIABILITY with Confirmed history. NOT to mention prior agency documentation, should never have been hired. Ol Butchy must have been hurting for people or allowed the Bozo to impress him with some east coast BS.

LEWIS well he can join him. Sounds like the City of Punta Gorda has some major issues with the Police Department and had better act fast and swift. Because it isn't just these two players that are the problem.

IT ALREADY COST THE RESIDENTS OF PUNTA GORDA 2 MILLION DOLLARS, AND now trying to never get rid of the issue.


The Broom had better sweep FAST and FURIOUS. Where there is HEAT, FIRE is right around the corner.

What really is sad is that the city waved 2 mill in front of the family. It should have been 6 to 8 million at least. But I would bet that the City maximum coverage in insurance was 2 mill. . Wanna bet?

The entire town and associated employees needs investigation and oversight not just the PD

SIMPLY...............amazing.


What or who is being covered in this agency? Not sure if anyone is smart enough to figure it out but our agency has now been exposed. Cannot keep yourselves in denial any longer. It is growing on it's own now.

Question is how long will the City Manager allow this all to fester and expand before acting swiftly?

That 2 million plus payouts could have made a lot of City employees who work very hard and without issue some well deserved raises. But not now. It will be years before it can recover. That is until the next payout by the dog boy. Poor dog. Even the poor dog doesn't deserve a handler like this guy.

FDLE and the FBI should each conduct independant investigations into the hiring practices and training practices of the agency not to mention an in depth look at the cover ups that have been going on since chief Butch was there. Follow the trail, Chief Butch. You will see the incompetence at every step of the way when it comes to what Butch touches.

I hear a chief Butch is worried about this lawsuit because he is the one that is truly responsible for hiring this idiot. No wonder why he won't buy a house and has his money.

There should be a few ducking in the entire city government.... Nobody is safe.. Especially when they get issued their rights via the State or Feds
