"Should anybody conduct themselves in a way that is illegal, nothing will be swept under the carpet. I pride myself on my integrity.<BR/><BR/>Well now, this statement apparently didn't apply to Marvin Harrison when he physically assaulted a police officer in a downtown garage over a dispute regarding a vehicle he owned.He was on the phone to Spears immediately and the incident WAS swept under the carpet along with the videotaped evidence that Spears personally checked out of the police property room. The tape has never been seen since.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-6881449842303770662007-10-01T08:20:00.000-05:002007-10-01T08:20:00.000-05:00$83K for "make work do nothing" job.

One word hasn't been used anywhere for Monroe's "work" and it deserves to be aired: lazy.<BR/><BR/>And not very bright. On one work day, while clocked in, he sat outside a peashake parlour for two hours, in a city vehicle with Carl Drummer. "Community liaison" indeed. I guess the illegal gamblers need some interfaceing with IFD.<BR/><BR/>More than anything, they think we're stupid. Watch for the pushback: anyone who questions their judgment can be tossed aside pretty harshly.<BR/><BR/>Spears isn't quite as arrogant as Monroe. But his actions in this matter are pretty blatant and outrageous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-10029450509230245462007-09-30T21:10:00.000-05:002007-09-30T21:10:00.000-05:00The services aren't being provided in his capacity as IMPD chief; otherwise, there wouldn't have been a question in the first instance.

Which rather strongly suggests that Spears would be an employee or contractor of CIB and not of the Colts. See Section 7.1(e) of the lease, which is available online.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07519737020352873595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-55144691114448143162007-09-30T20:04:00.000-05:002007-09-30T20:04:00.000-05:00Is there anyone on the city council who doesn't have a financial interest in the city or county?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-27541562014918665692007-09-30T19:55:00.000-05:002007-09-30T19:55:00.000-05:00Wilson, The statement of economic interests are posted on the city's website for all to see.

It's ok to collect a paycheck and no work product recorded? I guess it's ok for Greeson to utter ' bull dyke while in his uniform?? Your Mayor doesn't like sexual harassment , but did not do anything about it..

The previous poster is correct, Sweet Pea has done it for years and nothing has hapened to him either. Brizzi and the US Attorney have let this city slide into an abyss of corruption. They should be ashamed. Politicians do corrupt things, because that is what they do; like puppies that aren't housebroken.
