City Director Lance Hines tells a citizen to fuck off

Ward 5 City Director Lance Hines

Back in July, an email exchange was sent to us that caught our attention.

Hines replied and basically told Bernard to fuck off.

Hines' statement about the $5.5 million a year to youths and community programs spurred us to make a FOI request about that bankroll to youths and community programs.

You can view the spreadsheet the city sent in response to our request by clicking here.

Very little of that $5.5 million is or was actually spent on prevention, intervention, mentoring and treatment programs.

Salaries for city employees and staff along with expenses such as travel and conventions took up a large chunk of that pork.

Other expenditures were made for tobacco education and supplies, crisis intervention t-shirts,  the radio station at the West Central Community Center that Doris Wright thinks is her private property, playground equipment, Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, LR Racial and Cultural Diversity Commission, citywide "enhancement" programs.

We need to disband the LRPD and form a Metropolitan Police Department under the leadership of Sheriff Eric Higgins.

We also need to recall the entire Little Rock Board of Directors and the feckless mayor.

Mercenary LRPD cop Joshua "Kade" Myers blows through stop sign crashing into a vehicle - What will his blood work reveal?

Early Sunday morning, at approximately 2:55 a.m., mercenary LRPD cop Joshua "Kade" Myers  was ripping down Arch Street in pursuit of a vehicle and blasted through a stop sign at the 17th Street intersection t-boning the vehicle of Brannon Kidd.

 

Another LRPD cop, Jordan Ruff, was riding in the vehicle driven by Myers.

Jordan Ruff - Riding shotgun with Myers

Ruff has been with LRPD for over a year but has yet to change his voter registration from Fayetteville to Little Rock.

Ruff does has a vehicle assessed here in Pulaski County.

James Ruff is not Jordan's husband, it's his father.

Myers was the cop that was tasked to stay by the killer cop Charles Starks side (suicide watch) after he murdered Bradley Blackshire in February 2019.

 

Apparently Myers uses alcoholic beverages as a form of self-medication to relieve anxiety and stress.

 

80% of all white LRPD cops like Myers refuse to live in Little Rock.

This is unacceptable and must be rectified. 

We requested MVR footage from Myers vehicle and will post it once LRPD has provided it.

A sharp eyed reader might have noticed that a familiar cop was listed as the investigating officer in the report - Brittany Gunn.

Gunn was the cop that killed a man and drove through a brick wall landing smack dab in the middle of University Avenue back in 2017.

LRPD cop Brittany Gunn

There were allegations that Gunn had some sort of personal relationship with the man she killed,  James Hartsfield.  Click here to view an article about that.

Besides being a killer cop like Myers mentor Charles Starks, Gunn also has a disciplinary record.

Gunn was also the cop that Chief Keef tasked to go through my social media posts and blog to compile a record of posts I made about his sorry, corrupt, lying, morally bankrupt ass in his failed attempt to get the prosecuting attorney to file charges against me for exercising my First Amendment Rights as a journalist.

You can read our post about that by clicking here.

Gunn is another one of the mercenary cops working for LRPD as she is an outsider that resides in Benton.

LRPD is staffed by drunks and mentally ill individuals - Episode 2: Billy Brackins

LRPD cop Billy "Fibster" Brackins

This sorry excuse for a cop came to our attention back in 2018, when he was piss-on-yourself-drunk at Midtown Billiards with another LRPD miscreant cop Spencer Mitchell.

LRPD cop Spencer Mitchell

This is a video we posted about the incident back in 2018.

Listen to the 911 call Brackins made.

Fibster Brackins lied multiple times about what actually happened that night at Midtown starting when fellow cops responded and he told them he saw Parker snorting drugs in the men's room at Midtown.

Then he claims it was a white guy he saw using drugs in the Midtown men's room.

His different versions of what happened should have been enough of a reason to be fired for untruthfulness. 

Instead he only caught 176 hours of suspension.

It appears from the IAD investigation and witness statements that Brackins was really attempting to buy cocaine for his own use.

Why would LRPD want to keep him employed?

To avoid paying a settlement to Troy Parker.

That is borne out in a memorandum from Lt. C.P. Lewis.

Lt. Lewis addresses Brackins substance abuse issues and tendency toward self-destructive behavior (suicidal potential).

The fake ass charges against Troy Parker were dropped.

Cops like Brackins need to be drummed out of law enforcement and have their credential revoked.

This is the full IAD file on their investigation of Brackins.

This is a list of  LRPD officer wrongdoings that resulted in a suspension.

LRPD is staffed by drunks and mentally ill individuals - Episode 1: James Boyce

For decades we have acquired files from the Little Rock Police Department regarding internal investigations and criminal files conducted on their employees.

We have an on-going series about where all the LRPD take-home vehicle go, mostly outside of the city.

Now we will expose the drunks, drug addicts, mentally ill misfits that comprise the mostly mercenary LRPD ranks.

Our first episode in this new series reads like a made for TV movie.

This cop had blackouts from mixing psychotropic drugs/booze, and suffers with  with a mysterious obsessive compulsive disorder. Top that off with insurance fraud and you have a typical LRPD cop.

A complaint back in 2014 by Shawntell Looney, a female that apparently had an itch for bad boy cops, resulted in this miscreant getting forever branded as a liar and a risk to the shaky reputation and credibility of LRPD.

Shawntell Looney

Here is the entire IAD file. It's a big file but worth taking a look at. It has some salacious details (hint: sex tape).



The investigation revealed that Looney had been in a relationship with another LRPD cop, Henry Moore.

The investigation details that one occasion when Looney stayed over at Boyce's residence, he took her phone with him when he went to take a morning crap. Boyce found that Looney had sex with Moore (Boyce thought that they were going steady) and it set Boyce off.

Boyce only received a 15 day suspension.

Branded as a liar, he should have been fired. 

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1963 that prosecutors must tell anyone accused of a crime about all evidence that might help their defense at trial. That includes sharing details about police officers who have committed crimes, lied on the job or whose honesty has been called into doubt.

We exposed all the liars working for LRPD. You can view the list by clicking here.

Here is a list of LRPD officer suspensions. We have marked the cops that have issues with credibility, honesty, and truthfulness.


 


USA Today published a story last year about lying cops that featured several LRPD Liars List cops.  Click here to read it.

The Pulaski County Prosecuting Attorney's Office provided no records to our request for a list of LRPD Officers that had issues with truthfulness and credibility, even though a story Fox16 did back in 2016 references such a list.

Documented liars still employed at LRPD must be fired and lose their law enforcement credentials.

Another judgment filed against the LRPD Police Chief

This deadbeat is an embarrassment to the city Little Rock and needs to be fired.

LR Mayor's brother with history of mental disorders is arrested for auto theft and kidnapping - Crime runs in the family does mental illness?

Mugshot of Darrell Scott, brother of LR Mayor Frank Scott

We were tipped off yesterday by a source at LRPD that the brother of the Little Rock mayor had been arrested for stealing a car and kidnapping.

 

 

Photos of NLRPD officers taking Darrel Scott into custody at McCain Mall in North Little Rock.

We sent an email to the feckless mayor for comments but he never responded.

In May, a petition to involuntary admit Darrell Scott for  observation and treatment of mental illness was filed. 

Another petition was filed in late June.

It was dismissed on July 1st because Darrell Scott could not be located.

Perhaps the mayor should have sent his LRPD bodyguard team out to find him. Maybe the auto theft and kidnapping could have been prevented had he been found and hospitalized.

We have previously posted about the mayor's sealed criminal case (for DWI/Prostitution according to law enforcement sources) and in fact at his very first board meeting I demanded he be transparent (one of his campaign platform issues) and come clean about that sealed criminal case. Click here for our first post about his sealed criminal case.

 

We also posted about his father's violent criminal behavior and numerous petitions for orders of protection filed by his victims. Click here for that post.

That post about his father really pissed off the mayor and his questionable behavior and lack of self control are evident in this video. 

Another episode of our mayor's questionable, impulsive behavior was during the uprising over the murder of George Floyd by cops.  He joined in with protestors and led them on a march down Capitol Avenue until water balloons were tossed at him. He fled and jumped into the waiting car of his LRPD bodyguards leaving the protestors at the mercy of cops firing rubber bullets and illegal CS gas.

The very next day Feckless Frank apologized in a press conference for his actions calling them a "mistake; a lapse of judgment."  He had the gall to say he went there in a "spirit of protection".

You can read our coverage of that and see the mayor's apology by clicking here.

The mayor exhibits traits of certain mental disorders and needs to come clean if he is taking any medications for treatment of mental disorders.

We have a right to know about that and his own criminal past, sealed records and all.

The mayor used his public "pulpit" position as the CEO of the city to make a statement about his brothers situation.

We could not resist making a comment.

This story has become a national news story. 

Darrell Scott's PushBlack is still operating in his absence, and like the feckless mayor has not responded to a request for comments.

Darrell Scott is registered to vote here in Pulaski County.

A check of  records with the Pulaski County Assessor reveals he did not assess any personal property in the county last year.

According the the Arkansas State Police, Darrell Scott was cited for multiple moving vehicle violations; DWI,  careless driving, driving without a license or proof of insurance, obstructing governmental operation and driving with an open container of booze.

Scott wrecked a black SUV around 4:3-0 p.m. south of the city and was taken to Baptist Hospital.

The children kidnapped were two females, ages 4 and 11.

Scott claimed he was sexually assaulted while in the custody of NLRPD and was taken to a local hospital for a rape test to be conducted. 

Stay tuned for updates!
