No one is scrubbing anything nimrod, those profiles haven’t been updated in years because that whole project was abandoned. There are MANY personnel that either don’t appear at all or have incomplete bio’s. Go find a hobby because investigative journalism isn’t going to be a successful one for you.
ReplyDeleteNationwide when household incidents of domestic violence are measured, 40% of police officer households experience domestic violence compared to 10% in the general population.
ReplyDeleteHe's a fireman douchebag and this is about child pornograhy not domestic violence. We're you actually trying to be totally irrelevant?
DeleteNot happy news.
ReplyDeleteSad times. They have had many cases of someone accessing child porn on agency computers.
ReplyDeleteNever any happy news from Salisbury.
ReplyDeleteI have lived on the same street as this human garbage for well over thirty years. It is a culdesac, and he and his wife live on the circle end of it. Unfriendly is how he has always been. He has always had little man’s disease by making his pick up trucks extra loud. We definitely will not miss the noise he selfishly caused. His wife is also unfriendly.
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for their adult children.
He looks pervy.
ReplyDeleteAgreed
DeleteDon’t know what’s happened m but Ricky was a great guy and firefighter . He did a lot to help the department. He must need some help. I’m not excusing what he’s done, when the gavel drops we will see how bad it is. But he did a lot of good before this. I’m really saddened to see this.
ReplyDeleteSelective memory
DeleteDam shame. It doesn't matter what position you hold, You can't control a very sick individual in private life due to invasion of privacy laws. What is done in the dark usualy comes to the light eventually which here it did. Hope you watching child pornography was worth it Dumb Ass! Think about the children being victimized in those videos you were watching and the effect it had on their families!
ReplyDeleteIf he was a volunteer that explains it.
ReplyDeleteWtf kinda statement is that? Your literally bashing the very group of ppl that might save your life tomarrow smh! And grouping all of them into this dummy's category. That's wrong and you know it! You go join and volunteer and show us all the "right" way to pit our lives on the line for ungrateful ppl like you smh!...and no I dont know this dummy that was just a really not so good comment!
DeleteIs there a point to your comment? SMH
ReplyDeleteMaybe him and Bruce Fowler could share the same cell.
ReplyDeleteBryan records protected this guy for years! It was an open secret at the station....

ReplyDeletethank God they got this sick, evil pervert...sad for all the children he viewed for his 'pleasure'. have fun in prison.
ReplyDeleteThere is another Ex Fire Fighter who lives on Old Ocean City road, and carries a handgun....and sells his prescription opiates to anybody
ReplyDeletebut still runs free in Salisbury.....
His wife runs around with other men too

Who said ANYTHING about this happening at any agency????
Will he still get his vollie pension even though he was doing bad things, i.e., committing felonies while a volunteer?
ReplyDelete4:51 PM - really?
ReplyDelete@ 5:36 That was really a cold and unnecessary remark. You must be a low POS!
ReplyDeleteThis is why all of you volunteers have been kicked out of the fire service! Never needed you, you can go home now and stay there Vollies!
ReplyDeleteThe paid firefighters are protected and can’t be fired ... good ole boys

Um... Rick Rathel was recently retired after 25+ years as a paid Farmin so maybe your theory about volunteer is meant to be for you paid hacks. Oh, BTW, Bruce Fowler was a paid Farmin as well. You uneducated clowns are sick.

Huh?
Let's not forget when Rick Rathel was arrested in Delaware and fired from the Salisbury Fire Department for sexually harassing a convenience store employee. Does anyone know how to do a case search in Delaware?
ReplyDeleteRick retired, he was not fired. Let’s not make stuff up. K?
DeleteI see Rathel is back to his old ways of not paying his bills. He was lucky to get a loan approved on that shack he now owns. Hopefully it is paid off so that his wife isn't stuck with the bills by herself.

Aren't the Mason's great. Criminals taking care of criminals.
DeleteIf the Maryland State Police were smart they would check the computers at the Salisbury Fire Department, starting with Station #2 and all the computers at Station #16.
ReplyDeleteSalisbury paid fireman known to have sex on the back of Engine 1 with a female deputy and promoted to Deputy Fire Chief.

Salisbury paid fireman Richard Rathel arrested on child pornography charges.
Does anyone see a pattern here??
Can anyone add to this?
*there are known allegations involving children agains Mayor Day's wife
I just can't imagine a grown man getting a boner from naked children. That is a serious mental illness.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone remember when Bruce Fowler was having inappropriate relations with that high school girl named Ginger who was Ms. Salisbury Fire Department? Yeah, she got around. Bunky, Hoppes, Barry and many others. And Hoppes, who obviously couldn't be trusted, got promoted to fire chief thanks to Jim Ireton and Jake Day. Corruption at it's best.

ReplyDelete1:12 You need to go back to whatever t.v. you have been watching. The Masons have nothing to do with criminals. Put your tin foil hat back on the voices must be getting pretty damn loud in that nugget. This man is obviously one sick individual. Looking at children in a sexual nature is pure sickness unless you are a democrat then it is just another thing. These pedos come in every form and work in all professions. Just take a hard look at the sex offender registry for Wicomico County. Do not know where on the spectrum this dude falls but he has been arrested and will have to pay. Attraction to fire has always been an indicator of sexual deviants lol. Have a Delmarvalous Day !

You are 100% correct about the Perv's thinking child porn is normal are Democrats. Republican's are against perverts and sex offenders and of course the Democrats support them. Heck, look and Julia Glanz, Andy Kitzrow, Jim Ireton and Jake Day. Look at Jake Day climbing that flag pole on the Downtown Plaza and raising that gay pride flag with all his Homo's cheering him. This is a sick city and the city "leaders" are just as perverted.
Ricky Rathel was a career fireman with the Salisbury Fire Department for many years. Can't say he was this great firefighter as a few sheeple have commented. Does anyone know if he will lose his state pension if he is convicted?

ReplyDeleteRick retired, he was not fired. Let’s not make stuff up. K?
July 23, 2020 at 4:33 PM
Who said Rathel was fired? What post was that??
Does anyone know if Ricky got out of jail? It looks like he may have posted bail?
ReplyDeleteJust think, this guy used to go in many homes as a paid fireman and a volunteer? Wonder if our children were safe?
ReplyDeleteHere is a thought that just occurred to me. This Perv was an EMT so he rode in the back of the ambulance with many children while he was working as an Emergency Medical Technician for the Salisbury Fire Department. Does anyone think he violated children or took pictures?? Kids do get sick and he had the opportunity to ride in the back with them alone.
ReplyDeleteMr. Albero, this post really should be at the top so that the public can see what kind of people work for the Salisbury Fire Department and how these actions are condoned by the City of Salisbury Leadership!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a question worth asking. Has Mare Jake Day or Acting Mare Julia Glanz made a statement on the arrest of this retired firefighter and current volunteer firefighter, Rick Rathel?
ReplyDeleteWhat about Fire Chief John Tull, has he made a statement on the arrest of Rick Rathel yet? It's obvious the Salisbury Fire Department is plagued with criminals and sex offenders and this happened under his watch as a Deputy Chief and now the current Chief. John Tull also worked with Rick Rathel for many years.
"Silence is Violence," right you Democrat supporters of Black Lives Matters violence!! Let's not ignore your favorite slogan of 2020!

Name names, geez you Fkn Cowards are too stupid to understand what Anonymous means.
I hear Rathel has bonded out and roaming the streets again. Heard he was at Station 2 on their computers.
ReplyDeleteOnly a sick person would be sexually attracted to a child. Cut his nads off with a rusty razor and let him bleed to death.
ReplyDeleteSince Rathel has bonded out I wonder if he and Dreama are sleeping in the same bed?
ReplyDeleteI dont understand why anyone wouldnt distance themselves. You would if he worked for you.
