Unfortunately we the average citizens get the short end of the stick as the council and defunders on one hand and the union on the other hold the public good hostage. That is their sad legacy. *eyeroll* Did you ever consider that different Black people would have different ideas about this? I keep voting, but I guess more people want them.Reducing the pay of police command staff is one of the most petty political actions I have seen in my 65 years. Urban policing is a complicated job.
Alas, we don’t hold the police to those standards. In the very least, cut their salaries by 6-10%. The council is clueless to think that cutting the SPD budget and personnel will resolve the biased policing issue. The voluntary departures will be significant and a huge loss. “This has to be a collaborative process. I don’t know how else you can say that stripping the salary from the first African American woman police chief and her command staff is in any fashion respectful.” Some worried the repercussions of Best’s treatment are yet to be fully recognized.“What I worry about in the long run — because of the toxic environment that’s been created here — is who would now want to take that job,” Sims asked. Obviously I was dead wrong & deeply regret my vote. This is just the start, though. Cap base and more importantly OVERTIME pay, have regular auditing of the system to ensure compliance with budget guidelines, and no more waste.
They knew exactly what they were doing and they did it with glee. And instead of deescalating SPD doubled down and attacked the demonstraters en masse. James Larry Best, 90, went to be with his heavenly father on Thursday, February 23, 2012. “Mayor, As I have expressed, I had hoped to be the Chief of Police,” Best responded in the email to Durkan. Hopefully she won’t use fear tactics against businesses and residents, stating that her team cannot offer protection without those weapons and carte blanche violence. No more war zone gear and equipment, it’s ridiculous. Recruiting new officers to SPD is a well documented challenge and will only get worse.Not to be an alarmist, but we are for rough ride with unnecessary hardship as a result of the decisions and behavior (inflammatory rhetoric) of our elected officials. She was working for an insurance company when she met her future husband, Larry, a Boeing inspector, and when she decided to test with the Seattle Police Department.Hired in 1992, Best worked a variety of assignments on her climb through the ranks to the top.
In that, they don’t know what they are doing and are making it up their ‘plan’ like an adolescent. Don’t get mad about it just because you’re not doing it. Again, just straight up cruelty, and in the case of Aubreanna Inda, who was hit in the chest by a police flash bang in early June and went into cardiac arrest several times–nearly fatal, as officer tactics against medics prevented them from immediately assessing her condition. The reaction from the African American community is total outrage.
Read the Times article that came out yesterday.
“I am willing to work with them, and I think we need to work together,” she says. The entire Seattle government has to go.
Might be a good time for the no defunders to take a page from the protesters and march to the council members homes and see if they’ll come out and talk-or call the police on themWow it’s not Chief Best who should resign it is the Council members who showed total disrespect for her and SPDI will miss Best.
“Had George Floyd’s death and the aftermath not occurred, I would not have been surprised to see the Consent Decree dissolved soon, with the exception of discipline and accountability.”When O’Toole left at the end of 2017, new Mayor Jenny Durkan named Best interim chief and announced the city would undertake a national search for O’Toole’s replacement.When Best didn’t make the cut on the list of three finalists for the job, the Sgt.
Pugel ran for City Council last year, losing to Andrew Lewis in the general election.Pugel said Monday that he had been the one who promoted Best from lieutenant to captain over the criminal investigations division, and later to assistant chief.“There wasn’t enough I could do for her,” he said.
Which was, as pointed out to you, a small decrease. * And before people start replying, Herbold has consistently tried to portray herself as a “representative of the people” while looking for the easy headline.I would definitely vote to recall Herbold. Chief Best seemed like the only adult in the room at times. “My message to the city council is and has always been, I remain willing to work with you.” But she also says she’ll uphold contracts; and she says transformation is “hard, painful work … the road is long.” She adds, “Council, if you want to go far, we have to go together.”The mayor says she does not plan to launch a search for a permanent police chief this year: “What job would they be applying for?” A short time later, she also notes that the “unpredictable” budget climate would likely make it impossible to attract a good candidate.How will Chief Diaz try to work with the council as the 2021 budget process gets under way?
