The Piercing Truth

This is right from the dictionary and seems to describe Albuquerque, Berry and Schultz. Fascism (f ash ,izem) noun An authoritarian right wing system of government and/or social organization. (in general use) extreme right wing, authoritarian, chauvinistic and/or intolerant views or practices. Fascism tends to include a belief in the supremacy of one group over another, national, ethnic, especially social strata or monetarily; a contempt for democracy, an insistence on obedience to a powerful leader, and a strong demagogic approach.

Police State; Is the Media controlled by the Der Führer?




Look around and analyze a little bit of history and the results. When well-padded, Bill Richardson was the Governor, he started this trend. He started hiring big media names such as, Tia Bland, Juan Reyes, and the all popular, Conroy Chino into PIO (public information officer) jobs all over the State of New Mexico. He paid them all huge salaries as PIO’s. APS hired Monica Armenta. Metropolitan Court hired Janet Blaire, and the newest hires come from Mayor Berry’s Administration. Berry hired our local Albuquerque Journal reporter and former exposé of APD’s problematic past (and Taco Bell patron), TJ Wilham and Channel 7’s Chris Ramirez (Huffman). What is the real purpose behind these types of hiring’s? Is it to control all media outlets by shutting down the radio, TV and printed media by proxy?

Former Governor big Bill Richardson was bullet-proof. No one could touch him and the media would not say one bad thing about him or his administration; even if it was true. Now the truth is starting to come.

APD issued an order (see below) instructing officers that they do not have first amendment rights, when on or off duty, when speaking about the Department. Our Eyes behind the badge claim that White and Schultz have issued a “gag-order” directed towards the officers’ wives or significant others. We all know that the officers have no control over their significant others speech. The spouses or significant others have rights. Neither the Chief of Police, Ray Schultz or Chief Public Safety Officer, Darren White, have any right or authority to abridge their speech. If our local Führer’ can’t control their own partners; what would lead them to think that the officers could control their spouses? Is this really becoming a “Police State?”

Chief Ray Schultz was displeased with the decision of our Honorable District Judges. Chief Schultz proceeded to go on a “rant” on Tweeter and television. Chief Schultz is an Officer of the Court and his actions were clearly insubordinate. Did White, Chief Schultz’ boss, say or do anything? White was too busy trying to beat Schultz to the camera, he never knew that Schultz was bringing the Albuquerque Police Department into “disrepute.” Chief Schultz completely violated his own newly written policy. It was a clear violation of the APD Standard Operating Procedures Manual. Is Chief Public Safety Officer, Darren White, going to discipline his subordinate, Chief Ray Schultz based on the SOP violation?

These PIO positions are a waste. Why not let the Chief of Police speak on behalf of the Police Department? Allow the Director of Senior Affairs; speak on behalf of Senior Affairs? The Mayor or CAO should speak on behalf of the City of Albuquerque?

Are our City leaders starting down the road of suppression, the public’s right to know? Going after officers spouses to silence them? Ladies with all due respect; under the Constitution Amendment 19, Women’s Suffrage, allowed women to vote; now it appears that our City leaders are trying to remove your rights a little at a time. Under the Constitution of the United States of America, women are guaranteed the right to vote. Is this leadership trying to ruin what has taken several life times to fight for?



Our Eyes behind the badge told us that Chief Schultz per, Darren White, ordered that officers would not be allowed to vote in the substations. This was in regards to a Vote of No Confidence against White, by APOA members. The vote of No Confidence passed with a whopping 84% margin. Officers’ voting at the substations was a custom and practice that APD has allowed for over twenty years. The officers being treated as second class citizens voted in parking lots or on the sidewalk areas. Did this really help out White’s plight; really?

There are several different Constitutional Amendments that should be look at closely by this Administration.

• First Amendment; which provides freedom of Religion, speech, assembly and petition.

• Ninth Amendment; which protects the rights retained by the people.

• Fourteenth Amendment; which covers due process and equal protection of the laws.

• Fifteenth Amendment; right to vote.

• Nineteenth Amendment; which provides women with the right to vote.

What’s next, burning books, going after a certain class of people, etc…? Who is the Der Führer and is that person controlling all the media? Are they really after these precious rights? Is this just another one of the “shenanigans” that has become a common place with the City? When will the blunders stop? Is Albuquerque becoming a “Police State” or a communist community? Where is the rest of the City leadership or City Council?

These “boys” better wake up; we have the new Honorable Governor Martinez who is a female and a police officer’s wife. It is unlikely she will not stand for any type of abuse of officers’ spouses, from this Administration or from anybody else.

You will have to decide the answers to all these questions and act according to your conscience.

Mayor Berry; it’s time you pull your head out of the sand!

this is not a union issue. this is not about cars or pay.this is about a inocent man going to prison and reputations and businesses being distroyed. this is about honor, something darren white knows nothing about. this is about our very freedom being taken away. will we really be lead by a dictator ? media will you continue to be spoon fed by darren and company or will you dig for the truth ? if you media are just going to sit on the sidelines and continue down the path you are on, then we the people do not need you. if we the people stop buying your paper or watching your tv news or listening to the radio where will you be. something for you all to think hard about. we are all aware of what the last week of feburary means to you. that is how your ratings are determined. we the people depend on you for truthful reporting not darren and company spin. now the only honest media outlet is the internet. if darren and company can shut it down all is lost.i pray the eye will not be scared off.

Too bad this new addition to the code of conduct only speaks to officers. Darren White's actions and media whoring are doing more to harm this department's image than any officer's actions. The vote of NO CONFIDENCE was not purely symbolic (as the media stated), it was a clear communication to this city and its leaders that the Officers Of APD believe Darren is not capable of doing a job well done for Albuquerque and its citizens. He & TJ are a waste of tax payers money! When will the media search out and report the truths behind Darren White? When will APD get to expose the REAL concerns & issues surrounding Darren White? Wake up Abq! THE VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE WAS NOT ABOUT TAKE HOME CARS & PAY CUTS!

More misinformation today in the Journal, by one of your own. You all need to get the truth out or public opinion will continue to be manipulated by the Berry/White spin machine.

Take a moment----this is not a hit against your first amendment rights. It is saying you are entitled to your opinion, but when you post in places that are PUBLIC (if you think you're Facebook is private you are kidding yourself--read the fine print on Facebook itself) and you are associated with an organization, the comments can reflect on your employer. It is no different than if you went on camera, in uniform, and spoke as a department representative---it isn't your place. As a citizen, I am saddened to see the pouty behavior of you all. Respect yourselves more, respect the badge. You may not agree with White or Schultz or Berry, but there are ways to express your displeasure and first amendment rights than posting like petulant toddlers. The example of last weeks media frenzy, if you don't think an attorney will use that against the city/department/officer in civil litigation, you are kidding yourself.

Journal issue today Monday. written by Daniel Torgrinson. Support of Darren White. The only thing I have to ask you Dan is how much cool aide did you drink before you wrote the article and what was mixed with it. Mabe TJ wrote it for you. Here is the fact my friend, the only time Darren White stood behind an officer was to stick a knife in their back. My opinion of course, but seems to be shared by many. Funny how the only stories allowed in the journal about Darren White is to support him. Is this article in the journal a violation of the new policy ????????????????

I have been a daily reader of the Albuquerque Journal for years. Its obvious to me that the Journal has been shut down when it comes to APD press. TJ was the difference. He sought out stories while with the Journal and now that he has defected the Journal is devoid of any APD related news. I notice too that the Journal did not replace TJ.

A free and active press is essential to a democracy. Someone has to ensure accountability otherwise the corrupting influence of power will reign. We see that already with Darren White.

So really who should we blame? RJ! He is the head of our local government and thus is accountable to its citizens.

Toaday's Journal article.
"Darren White Backs up Fellow Officers".
Dan Torgrimson: You have made everyone puke their breakfast.
You are a friend of Darren White? Really? Seriously?
How convenient. What has he got over you? I guess being retired and getting re-hired (double dipping) has something to do with it. I recall that when you and Darren worked the SE area you referred to Darren as a "POS" and "worthless". Do you not remember that? Now he's your FRIEND and he is PAYING you to be just that. He paid kids in high school to do the same.
Being his bat boy on the softball team doesn't hurt either. You bitched about him many times in the past but now Himler is making you write his praises, via TJ Wilham and the Journal.
What is a true friend? It is one that will bring grocieries to you and your family when you had no job and couldn't afford to pay your bills or put food on the table. A friend is one who helped you out during your political campaigns and contributed money.
Those people are all gone and have been gutted by Darren White. Why? Because he is a paranoid schizophrenic, jealous a-hole that is green with envy anytime he feels threatened by someone elses ability to succeed or worse, advance in front of him.
The absolute worse thing you want to be is this guys FRIEND. All the people that have helped he and his family over the years, have been disowned and denied by him. Kind of like 'Judas'
You are better off being his enemy, at least you have your guard up.
So continue to be his friend, for your friendship is only a one way street, I assure you.
Darren has no regard for those who brought food to his family in time of need. HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU FORGET THAT? How the hell does one turn on his friends like that? The answer is simple. NO CONSCIENCE !!!
Therefore: "NO CONFIDENCE"
You disgust everyone that wears a uniform. Enjoy your 30 pieces of silver.

They attempted to silence me while I was defending myself in court by denying me my rights to due process. If I had not stood my ground and demanded the Judge order the city to comply, I would have lost thousands of dollars. In the end, the city simply failed to show up (because they had no evidence) and the case was thrown out. And they left a rank and file APD officer, who they had also lied too, to twist in the wind.

I have to agree, if we (the taxpayers) are forking out a salary and benifits for a spokeperson. Then I expect to see that spokesperson every time I watch the news or pick up the paper. Why do they get paid so much, for so little air time? Trish/Gibb and Darren are on 20/30 fold compared to TJ.

Perhaps all of the wives and husbands who are married to an APD officer should show up to the next city council meeting; along with our officers. We need to collectively have our voices heard as to why we do not want Darren in office and how we will not be censored!

Believe me, today's article in the Journal fooled no one. No one for sure at APD and the general public as well. The public, those non-City employees, John Q public are viewing this as a desperate attempt to make Darren out to be someone he is not.

Dammit, people...stop posting on this site expecting things to change. This blog is great for getting info out there, but it's not the solution to these problems...YOU ARE.

Get together, and get your voices heard.

They can hand down any general order they want, but they cannot quiet you without violating your civil rights. Just because you work in the public sector does not mean you forego your right to free speech. I don't give a crap WHAT White or Schultz say. I dare them to take action against anyone who speaks out.

OK, so let me get this straight. FOr the police dept, there is a dayshift PIO (sgt which means sgt pay), a swing PIO (Gibbs) and a grave PIO. Every weekend the Deputy chiefs take turns filtering all PIO inquiries. AFD has their own string of PIOs, yet we need a PIO (120K plus a year), his secretary (59K a year), and another PIO (TJ Whilham at 80K plus a year). TJ was employed making 35K a year, and now makes 80K a year. What the heck is wrong with these people? Why is a secretary making more than the majority?

Anonymous said...

POST ABOVE: Yes you are correct.You have broken it down precisely.
YES, we have PIOs on all shifts who wear a uniform. And YES, we have Darren holding a position (which isn't needed) at $125,000 ++, add another $9,600 for take home car.
(Average car payment between $400-$500 + Insurance $150-$200 and gas; at least $200. That's around $800+ a month X 12 = $9,600 YR.)
Darren's personal PIO ( media spin doctor) TJ Wilham comes in at $80,000 + take home car,ANOTHER $9,600
And.. Darren's & TJs personal secretary @ $59,000. WTF !!

Since Joey Sigala can't put out a press release any further than his next door neighbor and dog down the street, here it is.

February 18, 2011

Today the men and women of the Albuquerque Police Officers’ Association have voted NO CONFIDENCE in Public Safety Director Darren White. A motion was made at the general membership meeting in January for a vote of NO CONFIDENCE by our members. The vote was scheduled for Thursday the 17th of February 2011. Over half of the membership showed up to vote and an overwhelming result of 84% of the rank and file voted NO CONFIDENCE in Darren White. This vote reflects the growing concerns of the men and women of the APOA over White’s handling of departmental policies, misleading the public and city council, contractual issues, shameless self promotion, and various allegations filed in Federal Courts reference actions he has taken. While the local media has focused on pay cuts and take home cars, this issue as you can clearly see runs much deeper. It is White’s questioned credibility, and inability to effectively lead the department that is a large motivating factor. The APOA however stands ready and willing to move forward and work with Mayor Richard J. Berry. We will continue to put the public’s safety first as we are proud to work for the citizens of Albuquerque. The APOA however is asking the Mayor to take the results of this vote of NO CONFIDENCE and consider a change of leadership at the position of Chief Public Safety Officer. During his campaign Mayor Berry indicated that the position was political in nature and unnecessary. As the City faces a $40 million budget deficit now is the time to eliminate this position all together.

Do you really understand what you are saying "go do yourself"?

These are the kinds of horrible commennts that are making the public wonder about their police department.

What kind of people are you to do that? Those types of comments are on par with the Westboro Baptist Church, who do horrible things at the funerals of our military. We are above that, or at least I thought. I wish no ill will upon anyone, and I can only hope that everyone who posts these types of comments sit back for a moment and ask "would you say this to their children"

If the answer is NO, then don't post it. If the answer is YES, then you need to reflect on the who you are.

You could quit, but remember this, I doubt you will be happy anywhere you go. You will continually find a reason to blame others for your problems.

If APD is that horrible of a place, and you wish to blame it for anything bad in your life, then leave. But I am sure, a year into your new job, you will have just as much hate for it.

You make your own luck in life. Don't blame others, accept responsibility for your own life. Do not abdicate the control over your own life. Once you own it, you can change it for the better.

I am not saying APD is perfect. But my family and I are pretty dang happy being a part of APD. Most of my fellow officers are great people, the ones who are not, I don't associate with. I am glad to have a job that pays me over $50,000 per year. Do I like the current contract mess and what the city has done, nope. Am I going to let it ruin my day, week, month, year or career? Nope.

150,000 red light camera citations not paid. Too bad. They are illegal. It's been challenged, ask any attorney and they will tell you. The end.
T J, if you or the city's "Hired Gun", collection agency knowingly puts a blemish on anyone's credit for not paying these bogus citations, you and the City are opening yourselves up for one behemoth size class action suit.
The appeals process is a joke, the system is flawed and it's just a matter of time for the this whole damn scam to be thrown out constitutionally. The State of New Mexico apparently already has.

Does any one know if the motion about the retired rehires passed?

We voted on it at the same time we vote no confidence.

.As a retired officer and elected public offical, belonging to and posting "cute comments on face book is not the smartest thing to do. However you do have first amendment rights.
A excellent example of this is: Two Las Cruces Municipal Judges were cited by The Judicial Standards commission for making negative comments about the Las Cruces City Government and the LCPD. The New Mexico Supreme Court over turned this action by the Judicial Standards. The court said" while they may not agree with what the two Muni judges said, everyone has First amendment rights"
If a civil rights complaint is filed with the FBI, it will be investigated, if found to be justified this could result in the loss of NM Law Enforcement cert. by the offending party.
Bottom line, you have rights, but don't make stupid and cute comments that the public has access to, act like the PROFFSSIONAL THAT YOU ARE.BE SAFE

HEY SCHULTZ HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO FIND OUT IF A COP IS CARRYING A LEGAL GUN. GO TO THE RANGE AND CHECK HIS CARD??? BOUT 30 MINUTES THAT WOULD BE THE DRIVE TO THE RANGE AND HAVING STAFF PULL THE CARD AND LOOK FOR SERIAL NUMBER OF GUN. HOW LONG???? JUST ADMIT THE SHOOTING WAS BAD AND WILL COST THE CITY A MILLION AND LETS MOVE ON. EVERY OFFICER SIGNS THEIR CARD AFTER A QUAL OR PRACTICE ON THE SAME LINE WITH THE GUN INFO. I DONT CARE IF YOU HAVE 10 45'S ON YOUR CARD YOU KNOW WHICH 1 YOU JUST SHOT. JUST ADMIT IT AND MOVE ON.

To respond to the comment above about the rehire vote; No, it did not pass.

On a different note, if you do not present yourself as an officer, then you should be able to say what you damn well please. The only way anyone would be offended by your comments, is if they searched for you. If you are not representing the department, and you are not taking an ad out in the paper saying that criminals are human waste, (which btw, they are!), then what is the problem?

I tell you what the problem is, people have way too much time on their hands! The shooting was justified. If the guy didn't want to get shot, he should have not pulled a gun on the officer. Offenders are not victims...hence the word OFFENDER. If the community doesn't want the officers to do their jobs, then they can start dealing with the "human waste" who murder, rape, beat, and steal.

If a citizen had gotten killed by this most recent offender, then the big outcry would be "Where were the cops? Why didn't they take this guy off the streets? Why aren't they doing their job?" Oh please! To all of you who are whining about this shooting, get over it! It's not the first time a dumbass has been shot and it sure won't be the last. I'm just happy that it wasn't the officer who got hurt!

NO1 IS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SHOOT BEING GOOD. THE PROBLEM IS THE AMMO AND WEAPON THAT WAS USED. WAS THE GUY A POS YES BUT IF WE DONT HAVE CHECKS AND BALANCES AT APD WE WILL FALL BELOW THE LINE. THERE IS SO MUCH GOING ON AT APD THAT ONLY A FEW KNOW ABOUT POOR SUPERVISORS; TAKING CARE OF YOUR BUDDIES; PROMOTING YOUR BUDDIES; DIFFERENT DISCIPLINE DEPENDING ON WHO U R. WILL THIS MAKE A DIFFERENCE PROBABLY NOT CAN APD CONTINUE WITH THIS BEHAVIOR TIME WILL TELL. NO1 HAS SAID WHAT THE GUYS CRIMINAL RECORD WAS I SAW HE HAD BEEN ARRESTED FOR A GUN AND WHEN YOU CHECK IT WAS DISMISSED. THE OTHER WAS A EXTRIDATION WARRANT AND THE OTHER STATE NEVER TOOK HIM. WE NEED TO KNOW WAT HIS HISTORY WAS OUT OF STATE.

here's the deal, i believe that many, not all, have forgotten why they are officers and detectives and members of special teams. some, it's true started because they wanted the glory. however, alot started because it was in their heart to do what the side of the police car boasts "protecting/serving the community". apd, you are not judge and jury. you are there to make the streets safe. you are not there to dispose of anything!!! sure, most of you don't feel quite like that, however, i know some egos, both men and women that are toooooo big to fit through the door. wow. remember, you can not UPHOLD the law if you think you are ABOVE the law.
apd this is sad state of affairs. others used to use us as a model for training and dealing with such a high crime rate. the brass is so busy misinturpeting numbers and pushing the image they forgot the one of the most important of values. ethics! now ethics are simply enforced when the $#!^ hits.
shultz, with all due respect, clean your house. start with barboa. sorry to bring him up, i want to forget him.
