LRPD desperate to improve image makes a staged social media post trying to pass off a convicted felony as a participant in the OK Program

Russ Racop - January 24, 2021

On or about November 17, 2020 LRPD posted this on their Facebook and Twitter feeds.

The problem with this post about Owen having been in the OK Program is that he never was and is in fact a convicted felon.

The man pictured in the fake post is Owen Chandler Blake, a twenty-three year old man that was never a participant in the OK Program according to sources in the OK Program of Little Rock.  

Blake was arrested and charged with residential burglary (felony) and criminal mischief back in September 2019.

Blake accepted a negotiated guilty plea and was placed on probation.

 

Blake was given the mask by a former LRPD officer that was involved in the OK Program. Blake has a younger brother that did participate in the program and that is his only connection to it.

Having or wearing an OK Program mask does not signify involvement with the program. 

 

We attempted to find out how LRPD came in possession of the photos or who removed it but the city and LRPD ignored our requests for records.

 

 

LRPD frequently makes copaganda posts like this.

Copaganda typically encompasses things like fictionalized, positive TV depictions of police officers, heartfelt social media posts made by police departments, and videos of cops kneeling with anti-police brutality protestors; it is all the media made in an effort to show police as being uncomplicatedly friendly, heroic, and good. But these one-dimensional displays actually do harm by presenting cops as being solely friends and allies to the public at-large, rather than offering a truthful depiction of the deeply violent and racist nature of police work in America.

We also filed a complaint in the event a LRPD cop was involved as their own policies forbid them hanging out with felons. 

 

LRPD often refuses to provide records which results in our filing a AFOIA Denial of Rights lawsuit and having a judge order them to turn over the records.

We have several of these lawsuits going on now with more to follow as soon as the courts open back up. 

 

LRPD mouthpiece appears to have problems with paternity lawsuits - Does all his paycheck go to OCSE?

Does Mark Nelson, a/k/a, Mark Edwards hold the city record for paternity judgments?

Russ Racop - January 24, 2021

Court records reveal that Mark Christopher Nelson, who uses the alias Mark Edwards, Kris Jordan and Marky Mark, appears to hold the record for the Little Rock City employee with the most paternity judgements.

We found court filings here in Pulaski County that has Marky Mark being named as the father in five (5) cases. No telling how many others there might be in other states.

Here they are in chronological order: 

Case #1 (2001) - Male child born in 1994.

 

In this case we discovered that Nelson/Edwards has yet another alias, KRIS JORDAN.

Case #2 (2009) -  Female child born in 1996.

 

Case #3 (2012) - Female born in 2012.

 

Case #4 (2012) - Male child born in 2007.

 

Case #5 (2018) Female born in 2006.

 

In Case #5, you see that the OCSE wanted Nelson/Edwards jailed for non-payment of support and he has to appear in court on February 8, 2021 to show cause why he should not be thrown in jail for non-payment of support.

LRPD has policies about such non-compliance with the law and court orders. Why has he not been suspended or terminated?

Why does the LRPD chief have a thing for sketchy ass folks like Nelson/Edwards.

Perhaps it's purchased loyalty.

Back in 2010, Nelson/Edwards was featured in a story in Little Rock Family magazine. The story only mentioned four of his children, with his wife at the time and two out of wedlock ones.

Nelson/Edwards wife had enough of his infidelities and divorced him in 2014.

 

Nelson/Edwards is untrustworthy and should not be the spokesman for any government entity.

LRPD Chief to speak at illegal venue on MLK Day

Iniquitous LRPD chief does not believe court orders, regulations, rules or laws apply to him

 

Russ Racop -01/18/2021

 

The LRPD chief is scheduled to appear and address an invitation only crowd at Nourish Wellness at 9015 Kanis Road (the old LRFD fire station).

This business is not zoned as an event center and such an event violates city of Little Rock Ordinances.

 

To hold events such as the one set for today, a Condition Use Permit application would have to be filed with Little Rock Planning and the application would have to be approved by the LR Planning Commission and then by the LR Board of Directors.

 

 

No such application for a zoning change has been made the LR Planning Department apprised us last week.

Additionally the Arkansas Department of Health requires such events to be approved by them due to the medical pandemic.

 

The city business license for Nourish Wellness is in the name of Autumn Causey.

 

According to court records, Causey also uses the names Autumn Garcia.

 Web sources also indicate she also uses several other names.

 Causey is employed by the State of Arkansas.

 

Like LRPD Chief Humphrey, Causey has issues with paying debts.

According to the Arkansas Secretary of State, the registered agent for Nourish Wellness is Latoya Bouldes and she and Tina Gomillion-Wesley are coprorate officers.

 

Like the LRPD Chief and Causey, Bouldes has some issues with personal finances.

 

In addition to the illegal use of the site as an Event Center, it appear that an unlicensed Fitness Center is also operating at the location.

 

Why is  the LRPD chief associating with these sketchy folks?

What actions will the city take?

Stay tuned for updates.
