Where do LRPD take-home vehicles go? - Episode 52 - Sgt. Lea Dawn Folsom

Sgt. Lela Dawn Folsom drives an unmarked vehicle home




In 2018 we spent $1,032.79 on fuel for Folsom's take-home vehicle.



In 2017we spent $958.93 on fuel for Folsom's take-home vehicle.





LRPD and the city of Little Rock refused to provide us information regarding the city where the take-home cars go. So much for being transparent and open.

They provided it last year and you can read our post about that by clicking here.
Since they refuse to provide the information (the take home city is what we requested), we will post where these vehicles are actually going (their address which was not requested and is exempt under the AFOIA) and how much we pay for the fuel to provide transportation for these officers to drive to and from their homes each day.

More than half of all LRPD officers refuse to live in the city of Little Rock and be a true part of our community. Those are mercenary officers.



  
Many LRPD officers that have take-home vehicles use them to drive to and from off-duty jobs where they moonlight at security for merchants and direct traffic at churches on Sundays.

We believe this violates certain state laws and will be filing complaints with the Arkansas Ethics Commission concerning this illegal activity.


All the information used in this post is public information, readily available from the Internet or from a Freedom of Information Request.   We used the interwebs in this instance.

According to information provided by LRPD eairler this month, Folsom is or was on extended leave. 


Folsom filed a lawsuit against some other LRPD officers back in 2013. It was dismissed a little over a year later due to no activity.
