LRPD chief caught in another lie

Russ Racop - April 27, 2021

Yesterday we made a post that included a memo that a confidential source inside LRPD provided to use back on April 19th.

 We posted that memo on social media on April 19th and April 20th.

Today Max Brantley with the Arkansas Times posted on the Arkansas Blog about our story.

Brantley posted comment Chief Keef made about the incident.

Brantley wrote that Chief Keef later updated that message.

We suspect that Chief Keef was at one of his side-chicks house when he got a text message about the 23rd killing of the year.

Note what he said in his first message...

That is a lie.

As previously mentioned, one of his trusted employees sent us his April 19th memorandum as soon as they received it. Our posts prove that.

His mercenary cops leak information to us on a daily basis.

One of our field reporters sent us that photo of him and his grotty feet.

And a pedicure won't fix the grotty foot problem Chief Keef.

And this photo shows that Chief Keef says "fuck the mask" and defies the mask mandate his boss Feckless Frank has in place.

We must point out the LRPD follows us on social media and have individuals assigned to make records of our activities.

 

You can see that LRPD follows us on Twitter, but we don't follow them.

Brantley also posted an update of the memo we first reported about on April 19th after receiving if from one of his mercenary cops.

 

Chief Keef is done here as police chief. He needs to move on to another position while he can.

If he hangs around to long he might end up in a shit-hole like Syracuse, NY and loose his certification like Kenton Tremar Buckner and have to be a civilian police chief, if any city will take him.

Do what I say not what I do - Rules that the LRPD chief has for his cops don't apply to him

Russ Racop - April 26, 2021

 

On April 19th, the frazzled LRPD police chief sent out a memorandum to his mercenary police force that gives us a glimpse at the low morale and internal conflict at LRPD.

 

 

 

 

As the memo states, "All LRPD must present a professional demeanor and professional appearance...".

So when Chief Keef made an appearance at the 23rd killing of the year for Little Rock - a city that he states isn't dangerous and doesn't have a gun problem - we were surprised at his failure to adhere to his own orders about presenting a professional appearance.

Citizens and members of the Little Rock Board of Directors have questioned his continued employment.

Humphrey's continuing problems with personal finances (we broke that story last year - click here to view it) that have no resulted in four lawsuits (and three judgments) against him and is an embarrassment to the city.

LRPD cops have been fired for the same thing and it has prevent individuals from becoming a police recruit. 

Humphrey had been found to be in contempt of a court order and that has gotten LRPD cops suspended or fired.

And then there is that "early morning trip" to the home of his applicant of choice for an administrative position under him, to personally "deliver a police report".

But the feckless Little Rock mayor does not see a problem.

When the police union, racist or not, tells the mayor and city board they have no confidence in Humphrey's ability to lead LRPD, that is a major problem.

The lawsuits LRPD cops have filed against him and the one he has filed against LRPD cops and companies that do business with the city is another red flag. 

If the feckless mayor really wants to rebuild Little Rock, the first step is to fire his lousy choice for police chief and appoint a new one from the ranks.

 

 

LRPD Communication Director Kim Green called out as a racist by employee

LRPD Communications Director Kim Green with dodgy LRPD Chief Keef

Russ Racop - April 21, 2021 

A LRPD civilian employee at the call center posted on her personal Facebook page a scathing resignation letter she sent to the LRPD Communications Director Kimberly Green.

The letter details several incidents that point to Green and other employees at the call center creating a Hostile Work Environment.

 

 

We asked LRPD spokesman Mark Nelson, who uses the alias Mark Edwards for a comment.

We don't expect him to reply. 

Stay tuned for updates.

Arkansas Ethics Commission opens an investigation of City Director Joan Adcock

Adcock's campaign contribution & expenditure reports - senility or skullduggery?

Russ Racop - April 13, 2021

We previously reported on a complaint we filed with the Arkansas Ethic Commission about At-large City Director Joan Adcock's acceptance of an illegal contribution and discrepancies of actual funds acquired and spent during her 2020 campaign.

You can read that post and view the full complaint by clicking here. 

According to a letter the Commission sent, they have opened an investigation into the complaint.

Stay tuned for updates.

Video shows Ward 6 City Director Doris Wright rushing away from a stricken colleague

LR City Director Doris Wright refuses to offer aid or comfort to a fellow board member at the April 6, 2021 Board of Directors meeting. She runs away as other board members and city employees rush to help.

  

Video from the local ABC affiliate confirms that Wright ran away without offering any assistance.

We are surprised she left her snacks on the table. Maybe that's why she came back.

LRPD Chief facing another lawsuit over unpaid debts

Russ Racop - April 3, 2021

 

A year ago we were the first news media agency to report that the LRPD police chief had been and was being sued for unpaid credit card debts.

You can read that report by clicking here.

On February 4th,  LVNV Funding, LLC, filed a Petition for Indebtedness in the District Court of Cleveland County in Norman, OK, the official residence of the Little Rock Police chief. They are suing for $12,217,13 that Humphrey owed SoFi Lending Corp.

 

 

 

Like in the three previous debt lawsuits filed and won against Humphrey, his attorney filed a boilerplate denial. 

 

 

LRPD has a General Order in place about employees conduct. It is often cited in disciplinary actions against sworn and civil employees.

 

LRPD also has Rules & Regulations that specifically deal with payment of debts and obligations.

 

How can the feckless mayor keep his chief with his financial problems when his actions violate his own departmental policies?

Both the feckless mayor and the scofflaw chief have little respect for the rule of law and court orders.

The Little Rock Fraternal Order of Police, the official city sanctioned representative and voice of LRPD cops, has issued a no confidence statement against the deadbeat chief. 

City Board of Directors have expressed concerns about his continued employment.

If the feckless mayor wants to rebuild Little Rock he needs to fire the problematic, troubled chief to start.

Feckless LR Mayor hid public records and refused to provide them in response to our FOI request

Feckless Frank is not a fan of transparency and open records

Russ Racop - March 25, 2021

 

For some time now we have been investigating allegation of Ward 6 City Director Doris Wright getting involved in personnel matters at the West Central Community Center that she thinks is her personal property. 

We have a document heavy post coming in the next week or so that will detail her involvement in hiring and firing of city employees and other shady actions.

Part of the investigation we have completed was interviewing former and current city employees.

In conjunction with our investigation, we sent a FOI request to the Feckless Mayor regarding a former employee.

We received this response today.

Missing from the scant records they provided was the following letter.

 

 

 

Why didn't the mayor, city manager, HR and Park directors provide this record in response to our request?

What other ones are they hiding? 

You'll have to wait for that explosive post.
