The fact that the police chief and this politician do not want to be publicly accountable is outrageous. They both should be fired. I think politicians who do not respond to public concerns should be fired.
It's because terminating someone is a process in civil service, and there are hearings, appeals, etc. When someone resigns, they lose rights to all of that, and it's effective immediately. So it's really not possible to stop someone from saying "I quit" before you can do the paperwork to terminate them. Plus it saves the city and the department time and possible legal fees associated with doing a termination.
If I drank on the job, stole money, and tampered with evidence, I'd be fired outright and then jailed immediately. The fact that she is allowed to resign and still draw a pension speaks volumes about how bad policing is in America.

@@xyPERSON are you familiar with governmental qualified immunity? I agree some changes need to be made but they also need heavy protection due to the nature of their work. More oversight and training would be a step in the right direction. And maybe not completely staffing their ranks with former soldiers.
I worked at a PD in south alabama just...like...that. Our then chief promoted a very inexperienced female rapidly thru the ranks and she made no bones about "how she was promoted so fast. Her untimely demise was an unfortunate blessing for the entire dept.
It’s a lot of officers in Alabama police departments that are cruel to people in the community! Jacksonville Alabama lied about a hate crime over my life. Sherlita Bennett shot in the head. Was not over a parking spot, I was already parked and going to my job. Never compensated instead 15 yrs of threats, bullying, false reports to lock me up, damaging my property and cars to stay silent about the truth. Homelessness with my daughter and tampering with our disability checks.
Kudos to whoever took the initiative to hire an outside agency to conduct the investigation. It’s not a stretch to believe these kind of problems exist. I think what helps with both the department’s morale and credibility within community is when people see that their leadership fairly addresses the issues and takes appropriate action. The challenge is not letting it turn into a witch hunt.
Because you have a right to trial by jury and a trial would cost the city too much money for accusations with only circumstantial evidence that would not prove anything so the DA would lose the case. A DA only takes a case that they know they can win beyond a reasonable doubt. When a DA loses a case it's a bad point on their record. 😁

I’m just glad that the South Fulton police department isn’t one of those “We investigated ourselves and didn’t find any wrongdoing” like most other departments in the country. This is the transparency we need. It was her fellow officers who reported her. Usually it takes the community to complain but most departments keep it under wraps before clearing their staff and they can all learn a thing or two from this.
I asked my political science teacher one day why he wasn't in politics. His response was (when you take an honest person, and put them in places of high power they will be corrupted). This has always stuck with me throughout the years! It definitely applies to most cops for sure!!!!

@@johnbrinkman4609 Not really. I am anti bad cop and totally support the 1A auditors. But there's very little "solid" evidence against this person in this story. It's probably the opposite of what's being presented. The lazy and corrupt cops ganged up on her trying to get thing up above board at this department and they all filed complaints against her. If you're against bad cops, you should question this story.
It's a pretty big deal for a senior officer to encourage illegal workplace behaviour. It is intended to provide insurance against being reported because you are now implicated in the illegal conduct. It also serves as a reminder to the group of what behaviour is expected, regardless of the formally stated rules and policies and it's a lot more difficult to refuse than you might think. Setting an example of professional ethics that shames theirs by comparison threatens their position because someone that won't participate in unethical behaviour is also someone that might report unethical behaviour that they see. Upsetting the wrong person in this way could make your life miserable and potentially ruin your career. It's a bit like when a military officer makes a soldier participate in the execution of a prisoner or civilian. There's a good documentary from 2013 called The Kill Team (adapted into a drama in 2019) about one US soldier's experience with this in Afghanistan and the consequences of trying to behave ethically: www.imdb.com/title/tt2732932/

But also they wanted to transfer her to another department ? What is that, seems like she only got punished because they didn’t want to be stuck with her.
Our local (Atlanta Metro) government, school board, affiliated gov't agencies have had so many scandals in the last 10 years. It is both troubling and embarrassing.
Using the money counter sounds like a fool-proof way of preventing theft. Now they will have to steel before they put the money in the counter.... I think having body cameras that are always on (with no ability to turn of, mute etc), and always streaming the video and audio to a server would be an easy way to maintain quality standards. I think it would also make it easier for good cops, because it wouldn't be their word vs the word of their partner.
Orlando FL ex chief, Orlando Rolon Orlando.gov applied to the Phoenix AZ police. He's a complete pant-load. A Phoenix city commissioner called Rolon a 🤡. I guess he heard of Orlando PD & their cases, 2020s 2010s actions. 📰
My Godfather was in law enforcement most of his working life. He rose to Chief in several small towns. Because of him, I got to hang around my local PD. He told me the hardest thing to do was get candidates to pass the psychologicals. If he didn't fudge them he couldn't fill positions. He also told me that a bad officer is allowed to resign because of an officer is ever actually fired, they will never work in any law enforcement again. Firing is purging the bad eggs. Forced resignation leaves the "she/he was not a good fit" argument which allows another PD to legitimize a hiring without jeopardizing liability insurance. Note: Many small cities pool their money and group self insure. If one of the group is sloppy in their hiring, they are booted out of the group or a lawsuit is not group paid. My town had that happen and they had to eat the judgement against them. One of our local citizens is receiving annual lifetime payments for his injury. I think one day he may be assassinated.
@Simon Exactly 💯%!! The lieutenant had ask that I bring a bottle of liquor to celebrate after my interview, which I thought was rather odd so I decided to apply with another police department instead. It all makes sense now. 🍾 🚔
The department has never been trustworthy, never trust an employee who only had to attend a 14 week course to earn their job... especially when they carry a gun
As an outside viewer in the UK, I find that if outside influence is interfering with normal behaviour of policing then something is internally wrong. I.E justice is rotten upwards from the core.
Exactly! Why is no one concerned about going after the councilwoman for trying to fire the person who was investigating? That councilwoman is at the top of the food chain, and if she’s trying to cover up the misdeeds of cops then what else is being covered up?
If a civilian did these things they would be arrested immediately. A corrupt cop does it, no one is arrested and no one knows how to do an investigation at this time. It's crazy how often this happens.
She was doing this before. They only reason they turned her in is because she didn’t sleep with someone or something. They never turn each other in. There’s more to this story.
@@scottm838 naw wisdom is right, you call them and they further dilute the issue with bad policing and breaking protocol....so many public servants who disobey their oath and allow to resign...wish them the best of nothing
It’s amazing how they fully investigate their own for wrong doing but when it comes to them doing something wrong to a citizen they try their hardest to cover it up . Amazing.
In a memo to city officials, when the HR director Niki Graham tried to launch an investigation, Graham said Councilwoman Helen Willis tried to fire her. “It concerns me that Councilwoman Willis would ask to terminate me for doing my job,” Graham said. The city manager, Tammy Sadler Jones, also sent a memo saying Willis accused the HR director of “meddling in police business” and that “she needs to leave the city and go to another agency.” So when does Helen Willis resign?
I am happy an officer actually faced consequences for her actions but why did she resign? If she just denied like every other officer in America, she would have faced no real consequence. She should have just gotten paid leave like everyone else. Why didn't her union and fellow officers protect her like they do every other officer who is obviously in the wrong? I don't know about praising the police for properly punishing one officer. Seems like they have a couple hundred or couple thousand more cases to look into.
This story reminds me of one of my favorite lines from a movie about a bad cop. In 'Shield For Murder', once a police captain finds out one of his own men has gone wrong he calls everyone into his office, including a reporter and tells them all, "They call us servants of the people? Well I want our bosses to know that there's a maniac running around with a police badge!"

Kudos to whoever took the initiative to hire an outside agency to conduct the investigation. It’s not a stretch to believe these kind of problems exist. I think what helps with both the department’s morale and credibility within community is when people see that their leadership fairly addresses the issues and takes appropriate action. The challenge is not letting it turn into a witch hunt.

Why are they allowed to resign in lieu of termination by firing especially when they break the rules/law?
Because you have a right to trial by jury and a trial would cost the city too much money for accusations with only circumstantial evidence that would not prove anything so the DA would lose the case. A DA only takes a case that they know they can win beyond a reasonable doubt. When a DA loses a case it's a bad point on their record. 😁

I’m just glad that the South Fulton police department isn’t one of those “We investigated ourselves and didn’t find any wrongdoing” like most other departments in the country. This is the transparency we need. It was her fellow officers who reported her. Usually it takes the community to complain but most departments keep it under wraps before clearing their staff and they can all learn a thing or two from this.
But it is.

It's a pretty big deal for a senior officer to encourage illegal workplace behaviour. It is intended to provide insurance against being reported because you are now implicated in the illegal conduct. It also serves as a reminder to the group of what behaviour is expected, regardless of the formally stated rules and policies and it's a lot more difficult to refuse than you might think. Setting an example of professional ethics that shames theirs by comparison threatens their position because someone that won't participate in unethical behaviour is also someone that might report unethical behaviour that they see. Upsetting the wrong person in this way could make your life miserable and potentially ruin your career. It's a bit like when a military officer makes a soldier participate in the execution of a prisoner or civilian. There's a good documentary from 2013 called The Kill Team (adapted into a drama in 2019) about one US soldier's experience with this in Afghanistan and the consequences of trying to behave ethically: www.imdb.com/title/tt2732932/

Using the money counter sounds like a fool-proof way of preventing theft. Now they will have to steel before they put the money in the counter....

I think it would also make it easier for good cops, because it wouldn't be their word vs the word of their partner.

Power corrupts. Every complaint investigation should be handled by an outside agency.
My Godfather was in law enforcement most of his working life. He rose to Chief in several small towns. Because of him, I got to hang around my local PD. He told me the hardest thing to do was get candidates to pass the psychologicals. If he didn't fudge them he couldn't fill positions. He also told me that a bad officer is allowed to resign because of an officer is ever actually fired, they will never work in any law enforcement again. Firing is purging the bad eggs. Forced resignation leaves the "she/he was not a good fit" argument which allows another PD to legitimize a hiring without jeopardizing liability insurance. Note: Many small cities pool their money and group self insure. If one of the group is sloppy in their hiring, they are booted out of the group or a lawsuit is not group paid. My town had that happen and they had to eat the judgement against them. One of our local citizens is receiving annual lifetime payments for his injury. I think one day he may be assassinated.

As an outside viewer in the UK, I find that if outside influence is interfering with normal behaviour of policing then something is internally wrong. I.E justice is rotten upwards from the core.

If a civilian did these things they would be arrested immediately. A corrupt cop does it, no one is arrested and no one knows how to do an investigation at this time. It's crazy how often this happens.

In a memo to city officials, when the HR director Niki Graham tried to launch an investigation, Graham said Councilwoman Helen Willis tried to fire her.
“It concerns me that Councilwoman Willis would ask to terminate me for doing my job,” Graham said.
The city manager, Tammy Sadler Jones, also sent a memo saying Willis accused the HR director of “meddling in police business” and that “she needs to leave the city and go to another agency.”
So when does Helen Willis resign?
