Disclaimer - I hate the Wic Co BOE. However, I get the emotions, but let this play out. This certainly looks bad, but does not mean he was not competent at his job. It is not clear when people became susupicious of this type of activity. If there were signs and things not addressed then I will be standing next to you with my pitchfork.

Lets not act like the the liberals and burn everything down until we have all of the facts.

The comment about affirmative action is just stupid. Come on people show some class here.

Did you read details in PR? It says Just after midnight on January 11, 2019
Did you read where first shot was fired? It says Finchville, eastbound lane of Route 392 in Dorchester County heading for Delaware
Did you bother to look up mileage from Finchville Llight to Delaware Line? It is 3.6 miles

The MS Trooper had the tag #,the car was within 4 miles of Delaware Line, the guy was shooting at him with a gun, ( Does MSP have authority to chase into Delaware. I do not know, BUT IMO it was not worth a Trooper being killed by speed or bullet to chase a car tagged in Delaware (remember trooper had tag #) . Only the trooper was in danger of being killed/murdered. IMO if the lone thug lost control and died in a car accident, it will save MD and DEL boocoos of cash,
MSP BOSS made the right call --Good Job

Yep. You are correct. Trooper attempted to stop a violator and they fled. During the pursuit, the suspect fired three rounds at the pursuing Troopers striking their vehicle THREE times. It was after midnight and there was no traffic or pedestrians in danger. The Duty Officer ordered them to discontinue the pursuit. This was after a felony was committed in their presence and he tried to MURDER two Troopers. What message does that send to the criminals? If you want to get away and stop the Troopers from chasing you, just shoot at them. What message does it send to the Troopers? It tells them that MSP doesn’t support them or value their lives. Absolutely disgusting decision by the Sergeant. He has lost all respect of the Troopers. Lt. Garcia and Captain Black are just as bad for defending the decision. I guess that’s what you should expect when you promote people with no road experience. Both of them spent their whole careers in specialized units. Now they are making decisions about things that they have no experience doing themselves. But hey, who cares. As long as the Troopers keep doing the stupid initiatives that Black and Garcia keep inventing so that they can look good to Headquarters and get promoted again. Like the current initiative that Garcia has come up with. Send Troopers to every Greyhound bus stop to ask the bus drivers whether or not they have seen any evidence of human trafficking on the buses. What a waste of time. MSP has their priorities so screwed up it’s ridiculous. No wonder they are having problems recruiting. Who wants to work for an agency that, when someone shoots at you, tells you to “just let them go”. Unbelievable.

Anonymous said...

To answer your question, yes. Maryland can pursue into Delaware when in fresh pursuit of a confirmed FELONY. Attempted murder is a felony. Who cares if they had the tag number? The owner is going to deny operating the vehicle at the time. They will say they “loaned it” to someone that they only know by their street name “Ray Ray”. At this point, they will never identify who was driving because the Troopers could not see them at night. The ONLY way to successfully identify and apprehend the shooter was to continue the pursuit and stop the vehicle. The Sergeant ordered them to stop. There is no way anyone will be convicted at this point. Sends a great message to criminals. If you want to get away, just shoot at the officers. How many officers has this endangered moving forward? There is NO defense of this moronic decision. If you decide to shoot at the police, who are simply trying to protect the public while everyone else is sleeping, you should be held accountable.

Affirmative action is correct

Anonymous said...

Unknown 11:13-most of what you state I agree with but I disagree with your belief that bringing up affirmative action is classless. Truth teller are always the classy ones and while this might not be what happened there is a huge problem with "affirmative actions" within the public schools now called "diversifying the teaching profession." During the Obama admin they came up with another in a long line of asinine failure policies that only fooled the democrat voters none of whom are honest and most themselves products of the dumbed down US "education" system. It was a charade masquerading as something it isn't. It was called Our Future Our Teachers and strong emphasis was placed on hiring minorities and was really all it was about.
Pressure to hire minorities was made great by withholding federal money and creating other grants as rewards.
This is the mess we are now stuck with (we saw the school massacre in FL was the direct result of another one of obama's policies) and President Trump's Education Secretary DeVos is working to fix.

Yes, Maryland law enforcement CAN pursue into Delaware as part of “fresh pursuit” regarding a felony. Attempted murder of a police officer IS a felony. Who cares if they have a tag number. Having a tag number does not identify the driver. Think about it. Whoever owns the car is just going to say “I loaned it to a guy I met at the store. I don’t know his name. I only know him by his street name Pookie”. Neither Trooper can positively identify the shooter because it was dark at midnight. Owning a vehicle involved in a shooting doesn’t make the person guilty of the shooting. He could say “it was stolen”. Then what? The ONLY was to positively identify the shooter is to come to he the pursuit and make the apprehension. If you don’t even know whether or not the police can pursue across state lines, you shouldn’t be commenting. You have no idea whether or not it was a “right call” or not. FYI, it was the WRONG call. Ask any police officer except the bonehead who made THIS call. No one will ever be held responsible for this attempted murder because of the decision of the Sergeant. Nice message to your subordinates. Basically telling them to risk their lives and, if someone wants to shoot at you, they can. With NO repurcussions.

Well well well Mitchells produces another pedophile there is a shocker. How many time has R.A. and his buddy Mike Lewis covered for these sick sonsabitches. Anyone that lets their child go there is looking for trouble. I guess where you have a bunch of kids they will follow. R.A. is a turd from the word go. The bottom line is they need to polygraph perspective employees and ask them if they are attracted to children. If they fail they do not get hired. Just my two cents. That goes for the B.O.E. as well. Look at all the coaches that have sexual relationships with mostly female athletes. Volleyball had a real run on creeps abusing young girls. These creeps are in every walk of life time to take them serious. The young people are damaged for life and nothing proactive is being done. I guess a kilo of dope is more dangerous than a perv. They should be hung.

As for the Trooper incident last night when will you learn the Admin. does not give a rats ass about you. It is all about liability. Black is a complete idiot. No wonder they can not fill a class. God bless those that get into this field. Just remember take care of yourself and you fellow road dawgs. The brass seem to lose their minds when they move up the hall. They are as much of the problem as the liberal left. I am sure if you have been there they talk out of both sides of their mouth. You are a number that does not matter. Well if you die on or off duty the Top will jump on t.v. and talk about how much they loved you and what a great worker you were even if you are that twenty year T.F.C. that worked the road your entire career because you do not kiss the ass of those like Black or Jerry Jones etc..

Is this more unbelievable than the allegations of the Salisbury mayor wrecking his truck last weekend and being approached by MSP walking away from the scene where he was found drunk and lied to the trooper? If these rumors are true then the voting public should know along with any consequences lying and DUI carry in his military officer career. The FBI should also investigate why MSP allowed a privileged white male democrat to skate while minorities, women and conservatives are subjected to the full letter of the law. Did anyone else notice his social media hiatus last weekend, his truck missing from downtown? Why is this being covered up at the highest levels? A lie to the police is a crime even if the DUI couldn't be proven. Integrity has no place in Salisbury apparently.

Is he related to Jermichael Mitchell aka Jaabri Aatimi? They both have a "history" with children.

I guess that explains why that Sergeant hasn’t been promoted any higher in 15 years despite numerous attempts during the promotional process. Shooting at a Trooper must have been a question in his oral interview board. Looks like he failed the question then and failed it again in real life application.

Anonymous said...

Yet another screw up, by MSP, under Brent Black’s watch. He is the Troop Commander. It is ultimately his responsibility. Someone should tell him that you have to be present to supervise people. All he is worried about is building up his construction business for post retirement.

Anonymous said...

Hopefully the Trooper didn’t “forget” to log his PBT test result. To administer a PBT and not properly log it is against Agency policy. Barrack Command staff better check to make sure it’s logged. There are too many people who KNOW that a PBT was administered.

Back to Jake's BAC as reported in comment above. If they gave him an hour to sober up before he took the BAC test they should be fired. Rule of thumb is that you metabolize about 1 oz. of alcohol per hour. Meaning that test administered promptly would probably generate higher reading.

Will he bug out for 28 day rehab program?

You apparently no nothing of Andy hall. He is to this day the #1 most respected admin and prior teacher this county has ever had.

The board of Ed has thousands of employees, I am one. You go through a state and FBI background check to get hired, what happens after that is not the fault of the BOE. It is the job of the school administration to keep their ship running smooth, and if they fail that, they should be fired, not moved to the BOE office. This has happened to often over the years when administration can’t do the job promoted to, they were move into the BOE. This is something all employees know who have been around a while.sometimes employers need to find other work, not moved up and receiving better job and pay! Some schools in the county are lost, the Federal Government has put such tight restrictions on the school, the inmates, and that is what many of them will be down the road, run the show. You can’t tell the government to pound sand or they will stop funds which the schools need. No one wins in this situation, but the schools lose the most as the criminals run the school! Citizens of Wicomico County, stop spouting off about the schools, they really do try hard to teach and protect your kids. Every once in a while a sleeve ball shows up, hopefully, he gets cut off at the knees! Don’t be so quick to judge when 99% of the employees are trying to do their best.
