The Feckless Mayor exploits social action to save face.

LR Parks & Rec employees remove the sole confederate statute on city owned land in darkness

For the last three years, Ean Bordeaux Lee (publisher of Corruption Sucks Blog) and I attempted to work with the city manager and city attorney to and get the sole confederate idol on city of Little Rock owned land in MacArthur Park removed.

 

You can view our post from August 2017 by clicking here.

Issues with an agreement the city entered into with the State of Arkansas to obtain $100,000.00 to replace a rotting porch on the Military Museum proved to be a hurdle to overcome as it requires to State of Arkansas to agree to the removal of the confederate idol.

We even encouraged departing Mayor Stodola in his last appearance at a Little Rock Board of Directors meeting to used his last two weeks ion office to get the confederate idol removed.

The State did not believe that the statute needed to be removed and that was the end of that. The State holds all the cards due to the 2017 agreement.

Forward to the present day and the uprising occurring all over the USA and the world.

As other cities were removing similar statues, we made posts on social media about the lack of concern by city leaders and so called activists about the confederate idol.

  

Then on Monday of this week, we learned that the confederate idol had been "attacked".

When our sources at city hall altered us to the social action, we rushed to the park and took photos.

Bordeaux was able to interview the man asked to try and clean off the idol.

The feckless mayor jumped into action without consulting any of the Board of Directors or the city attorney and ordered city Parks & Rec workers to report to work at 3 am and remove the bronze soldier and board up the base.

Here is exclusive video of the removal.

Then the mayor issued a press release and made social media posts.

The feckless mayor exploited the social action made against the confederate idol to try and save face over the huge blunder he made when he joined in with protestors, led them on a march down Capitol Avenue and bolted for his bodyguards vehicle when water balloons were tossed at him. Feckless Frank left the bamboozled protestors at the mercy of mercenary forces attacking them with illegal gas and rubber bullets.

The next day he apologized to his handlers calling it a "mistake; a lapse of judgment."  He had the gall to say he went there in a "spirit of protection".

So you see that Feckless Frank way was hell bent on exploiting the directed social action of the confederate idol.

The Arkansas Times reported that the State of Arkansas is looking to relocate that idol. 

Perhaps they will put it next to the one on the State Capitol grounds or next to the one at Old State House. Those need to come down as well.

If they are not tossed into the Arkansas River, they should be moved to the confederate cemetery on Springer Boulevard where the traitors are buried and the idols can rest with them there.

Is the LRPD Chief mentally unstable?

Does Chief Keef have bats in his belfry?

Recent actions by the beleaguered LRPD Chief give cause for concerns about the state of his mental health.

We broke the story about his financial problems he attempted to conceal when hired by the feckless Little Rock Mayor. 

Humphrey stated he "settled" with two credit card companies over defaulted payments totaling over $30,000.

Never seen a legal settlement result in a judgment. Usually a settlement results in the dismissal of a lawsuit.

His own filings in the cases denies he owed any funds at all.

His filings, after hired here,  list his residence as being in Norman, OK.  

Humphrey has rented an apartment in the SOMA area, but his wife has not relocated to Little Rock.

We pointed out that discrepancy in a follow up post. 

Then we broke the story of his being observed by one of his employees leaving the home of his side-chick that happened to be his choice for a high-paying position at his department dealing with the $80 million dollar LRPD budget.

Like Humphrey, his side-chick had her own problems with debts, suspended driver's license and false information on her application of employment to the city.

Then you have the multiple lawsuits filed against him by underlings and complaints of harassment by females and you see a serious problem with his continued employment.

We have four active lawsuits against Humphrey for AFOIA violations with many others waiting to be filed when the Circuit Courts open back up.

If all this was not enough to question his mental state and fitness to head LRPD, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette uncovered a failed attempt of his to have a journalist (me) charged with harassment for exposing and covering corruption in city government and at his department.

The Arkansas Times also reported on that ill-fated attempt of targeting a journalist.

Emails between Chief Keef and myself reveal his inability to maintain a professional demeanor and control his mouth (those will be added to this post shortly).

Just last week, Humphrey attempted to violate my First Amendment Rights, prior to the start of a Civil Service Commission meeting where I had appealed the slap-on-the wrist discipline of LRPD cop Brad Stewart.

In an email after the feckless LR mayor attempted to violate my rights at City Hall last year...

...Humphrey dared me to say "fuck you" to his face. He got his wish last week.

By the way, ole Feckless Frank in named in those AFOI lawsuits as a Defendant too.

There are reports that he has harassed at least three females that a city employees.

We made a verbal request for any and all complaints made about Humphrey without regard to the outcome of any investigation or disciplinary action.

  Stayed tuned for updates. 


***UPDATE-06/15/20-6:30PM***

Local TV stations reported on a heated exchange that occurred at the State Capitol today between the chief of the State Capitol Police and the beleaguered LRPD chief.

 
It's clear that Humphrey has to go. 

Mayor Scott needs to send him packing.

LRPD Officer Kendall Harper posts a video on social media supporting and encouraging protestors.

In a bold move that will surely incur the wrath of  his chain of command and the racist LRFOP, Kendall Harper, who is assigned to the Major Crimes/Robbery unit at the 12th Street substation,  posted a video on social media in which he stated "I am a black man first" and that he supported the protestors and encouraged individuals to come to Little Rock and join in.

Harper, 35, resides in North Little Rock, which makes him a mercenary cop like 70% of cops on  the Little Rock Police Department.

What does Harper think of his brothers in blue that on on the Liar's List?

Does he speak out against the many officers that he works with that have violated use the LRPD use of force policy?

Stay tuned for updates.
