LRPD chief caught in a web of his own lies

LRPD Chief Keith Humphrey

We broke the story back on April 12th about the  three lawsuits filed against Humphrey over serious unpaid credit card debts.

To view that post click here.

The news of those credit card debt judgments added to questions about Chief Keef and his personal life.

● He is staying in an apartment in Little Rock's trendy SOMA gentrified area as a single man while his wife has remained in Norman, OK in their marital home (which he also claims as his residence - see legal filings in our April12th post) and continues to work at the University of Oklahoma.

● He altered his appearance by shaving off his gray hair trying to appear younger and is seldom seen wearing a wedding ring.

● He traded in his J.C. Penny dad suits for skinny shredded jeans from The Gap.

Those credit card debts and judgments, along with questions about his residency,  referenced in the lawsuit filed against his by LRPD Assistant Chief Hayward Finks on April 22nd. 

You can view our post about that lawsuit by clicking here.

Then on April 23rd, FOX16 ran a story about Humphrey's financial problems and questioned his ability to manage the financial aspects of his agency.

Humphrey provide a written statement to Fox16 regarding the lawsuits and judgments.

This statement is prima facia evidence that Keith Humphrey is a pathological liar.

In paragraph one of the statement, Humphrey states he promised citizens honesty and transparency.

That has been proven a lie several times over. 

The publisher of this blog asked Humphrey at the community forum when he was one of the four finalists for the LRPD CoP position about LRPD officer residency (70% of all LRPD cops live outside of LR) and take-home vehicles.

Humphrey responded that he couldn't tell folks where to live but that if he was chief, he would not let take-home vehicles leave the city. To this day most LRPD take-home vehicles are drive to officer homes outside the city limits of Little Rock.

And the transparency claim has been borne out a lie in that the publisher of this blog has four active and ongoing lawsuits against Humphrey for violations of the Arkansas transparency law with addition lawsuits being prepared to be filed.

Now for the debt lawsuits and judgments.

Humphrey lies about not refusing to pay the debts and that the legal case was a simple routine settlement.

All three lawsuits state that Humphrey, and no one else, failed and refused to pay after demand for payment was made.

Humphrey filed answers to each of these lawsuits denying their claims and you can see those documents on our previous post.

It must be pointed out that Humphrey falsely claims that he "settled" these lawsuits when in fact his creditors obtained judgments against him in two of the lawsuits and the third lawsuit is still on-going.

Nowhere in any other these court files does the word "settlement" appear.

Fact is the cards were in his name, charges were made, payments were not made and then demands for payment were ignored. They sued his sorry deadbeat ass and obtained judgments against him.

Humphrey has made untruthful and willfully misleading statements which violate policies of his department and he must be held accountable for his lying.

Also troublesome is the fact that he is a mercenary police chief in that he stays in Little Rock but his residence is in Norman, Ok. 

Mayor Frank Scott the junior needs to fire Humphrey and salvage what he can of his own feckless legacy as mayor.

***UPDATE 04/24/20 3:40PM***

After we published, LRPD provided us with the letter Humphrey mentioned in his statement to FOX16.

According to Humphrey, he enrolled in a debt relief program with a for profit company - National Debt Relief.

Apparently his debtors rejected any offers or arrangement from the for profit company, if he really engaged them for services. Remember he's a pathological liar that will try to twist and shade reality for his benefit.

Again, his creditors filed lawsuits against him for non-payment and that's an indisputable fact.

Again,  his creditors obtained judgments against him. There were no settlements and that's an indisputable fact.
 

Assistant Chief and two other officers file an employment discrimination lawsuit against the LRPD Chief and the city of Little Rock

It appears that LRPD Chief Humphrey holds the distinct dishonor of being named in more lawsuits during his first year of employment than any other LRPD Chief in the history of the department.

This morning, Assistant Chief Hayward Finks, Duane Finks (the Asst. Chief's brother) and Reginald Parks, filed an employment discrimination lawsuit against Chief Keef and the city of Little Rock.

LRPD Asst. Chief Finks sues... by Russ Racop on Scribd

The newest lawsuit against Chief Keef and the city, details how Chief Keef retaliated against several of his employees.

It also gives an insight into his nasty, vindictive demeanor, which was no surprise to us.

The lawsuit also makes references to information we uncovered about Chief Keef and his financial and residency problems. You can read our sotry about that by clicking here.

Chief Keef has also exhibited some signs of mental illness in that he is paranoid and appears to be a pathological liar. He has stated that he can only trust a couple of individuals at LRPD and believes that their are "leaks" at his agency.

Feckless Little Rock mayor Frank Scott the junior made a terrible mistake hiring Humphrey and not selecting Assistant Chief Alice Fulk.

Scott needs to rectify that mistake and fire Humphrey's sorry lying ass right now before he does more damage to LRPD and the city.

Check out a previous post about Finks. http://badlittlerock.blogspot.com/2019/01/is-acting-lrpd-chief-hayward-finks-too.html

Finks dropped out of the Black Police Officers Association back in 2017. He did however keep his membership in the Little Rock Fraternal Order of Police which is mostly comprised of white officers that refuse to live in Little Rock (80% of all white LRPD cops live somewhere other than LR).

 Lt. Johnny Gilbert responded to Finks.

 

Court records reveal LRPD chief didn't pay credit card bills and racked up judgments totaling over $27K and has another pending case over an additional $15K debt

LRPD Chief Humphrey never left home without his credit card and never paid the bills

LRPD Chief Keith Humphrey has some serious financial issues as indicated by three lawsuits filed against him after he was hired by the city of Little Rock.

Before he could get settled in Little Rock, without his wife (more on that later), Deadbeat Keith had two judgements totaling $27,036.05 filed against him for failing to pay credit card debts. A third lawsuit is ongoing for a $15,870.94 credit card debt.

Keith Humphrey Debt Lawsuit 2 by Russ Racop on Scribd

It make us wonder if he was about to get fired in Norman, OK for his questionable financial behavior.

Also troubling is his answer to the third lawsuit in July 2019 in which he states  he is a resident of Norman, OK even though he was living and registered to vote in Little Rock, AR. 

Keith Humphrey Debt Lawsuit 3 by Russ Racop on Scribd

LRPD Rules and Regulations has two sections that reference deadbeats like Humphrey:

If the head of the department cannot follow the rules how can his employees be held accountable?

Humphrey was found in contempt of court here in Little Rock in the case of killer cop Charles Starks.

A contempt citation is also pending against him in our one of our AFOIA denial of rights lawsuits.

His contempt of the law is unquestionable and his continued employment needs to be addressed by feckless Reverend Mayor Frank Scott, Jr.

Humphrey's wife does not live in Little Rock, she remained in Norman, OK and is employed by the University of Oklahoma.

Shortly after Humphrey rented an apartment in SOMO, he changed his appearance and quit wearing his wedding ring. 

Court records back in Norman, OK and here in Little Rock do not reflect divorce proceedings.

It's extremely troublesome that she is not residing here with him in that he cried about getting the LRPD chief's job and stated it would be his last and this would be his home.

Apparently his wife didn't share his enthusiasm.

We sent an email to Chief Keef about his financial and legal problems:

Chief Keef provided a non-responsive answer:

Chief Keef used the defensive ploy most criminals use when they get caught, the "Ends Justifies the Means" defense. 

You see that most often with meth heads that need to rob or steal from folks to support their habit.

He deprived two creditors the monies that they were entitled to which resulted in them having to take legal actions to get what was due them.

If this was a criminal case, the amounts involved would be serious felony charges.

Displacement is a cowards way of dealing with problems.

The continued embarrassment for the chief and his estranged wife, his department and the city of Little Rock falls squarely at his feet.

###

Apparently the Chief Keef is feeling the heat and instead of manning up and taking responsibility for his debts - no one else was listed as a defendant in the three lawsuits and a court of law determined he failed to pay his debts and gave judgements to his creditors. 

Humphrey (Buckner 2.0) is liar and has to be fired. 

Where do LRPD take-home vehicles go? Episode 60: Officer Joel Alicea-Perichi

Alecia-Perichi drives an umarked LRPD vehicle to his home in Saline County

Like most all LRPD officers, Alicea-Perichi refuses to live in the city that employs him.

So we give Alicea-Perichi an unmarked LRPD vehicle to drive to and from his home in Saline County to work in Little Rock as a mercenary police officer and we pay for the fuel.
 

In 2018 we spent $1,903.86 on fuel for Alicea-Perichi's take-home vehicle.

 

LRPD has provided conflicting records concerning 2019 fuel costs and vehicle numbers are not matching records they earlier provided.

LRPD and the city of Little Rock refused to provide us information in 2019 regarding the city where the take-home cars go. So much for being transparent and open.

They provided the take-home location in 2018 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.

Most all of the LRPD take-home vehicles go to homes outside of Little Rock.
 

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.
