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.

What is the Price of Silence?

Apparently for the Berry Administration it is an $80,000.00 a year job paid for by your tax dollars. It appears that TJ Wilham knows too much (we know that’s a stretch at any rate) and Schultz is afraid to let him go. Wilham has been reassigned to Chief Schultz’s staff on the Fifth Floor as a PIO. Wilham was originally hired by Mayor White, we mean Berry as a PIO. The history of this slug is interesting.

Berry hired Wilham as his PIO. Wilham was forced out of the nest by PIO Chris Huffman-Ramirez. Our Eyes told us that Wilham was fired while Boss Hog Darren White (read it here) was out of town. When White rushed back into town, he gave Wilham back his job and reassigned him to a position that was nonexistent and that was not funded. White assigned Wilham to “Special Projects Coordinator.” This position was under the watchful eye of White and former Undersheriff, Sal Baragiola. The job was never listed on the City web-site. There was never a job description or duties assigned to this position.

Our eyes told us that White was making APD pay for Wilham’s salary. Schultz demanded the body that he was paying for and Wilham was transferred from doing nothing under Baragiola to APD. Wilham’s new job was overseeing a program that would not exist in APD for another five years. Now, Wilham is on the Chief’s Staff as a PIO. The question is why?

The Albuquerque Police Department already has a supervisor in charge of being Ray Schultz’s PIO. That person is Sergeant Trish Hoffman. Of course Sgt. Hoffman does not supervise anybody but still receives supervisory pay. Now, Sgt. Hoffman has TJ “Yo quero Taco Bell” Wilham working with her. In addition to Sgt. Hoffman, APD has PIO’s assigned to every shift; day, swing, and graveyard. What does this “gypsy” do to make $80,000.00 per year? He was not and is not needed. Perhaps, the only reason for the huge salary is “hush money?” Perhaps the IG (Inspector General) should investigate why the City is giving this money away.

We would advise the IG to be cautious about what Wilham tells them. Our eyes tell us Wilham told a classroom full of police officers (in from of current PIO, Sgt. Hoffman), “the only way to make money in media is to lie.” Sgt. Hoffman challenged Wilham and asked, “Did you lie to me?” Wilham replied, “I lie every day.” What a model City of Albuquerque employee. Of course, Chief Schultz made lying acceptable when he was convicted in Federal Court.

The only job that Wilham has been documented and photographed performing is getting Taco Bell. Some refer to Wilham affectionately as “Taco Bell TJ” or “Yo quero Taco Bell.” In any event, delivery boys usually work off of tips and do not receive a huge City salary of $80,000.00 per year. If this is the case Berry is going to have every Domino’s and Pizza Hut driver applying for the same job.

The big question is; what is it that Wilham knows that would force Berry and the boys to keep this slug on the payroll in order to keep him silent?

Wilham has plenty to say. This is my thought; DOJ is in town...Wilham is not happy with his current pay or position...so we need to give piggy what piggy wants. Give him his PIO spot back and a big fat salary and he will not tell the DOJ or the IG what he knows. Although, 80 grand hardly seems like enough money to keep MY mouth shut, I'm sure it's enough for TJ's.

Hey Berry are you running the show or NOT ???
What , you afraid of Ray, Darren, TJ now. Can you please grow a set?
You've created a mess because you didn't take charge from the beginning. Now you have thugs telling what to do. You have surrounded yourself with con artists, incompetents, and liars. You're a very sad mayor.

Anonymous said...

The PIO issue is part of APD's stability. We don't know who to call when we have an incident. Hoffman don't come out even during the day. We have sgt's from vice and burglary doing interviews that obviously shouldn't have occurred. Who knows maybe TJ will take the bull by the horns and do all media requests and Hoffman can find another closet to hide in. I know the FSB is in need of sgt. You listening Schultz? Of course not.

Good luck working with this guy Trish. Better make sure you cover your ass.
Berry to reiterate what commenter above said. "you have surrounded yourself with cons & liars."
Good luck with that too.
You truly are the fool they take you for. (Darren , Ray, TJ, & 'Lip Blister')

How come Sarah 'Blister' got a job such as Director of Workforce Solutions. Is she qualified for such a high position? She's a freaking campaign worker. Couldn't start out as worker in that department and work her way up like in usual business practice?
And TJ Wilham, (extortion at it's best) I can just see Marty puttin up with that shit.
Same goes for the Jacobson chick, Dir. of Tourism.
She was just a sales rep for Quaker Oates, no big executive.
WTF Susana or I should say Gov McCleskey. 'Peter Principal' at every level with the Martinez and BlueBERRY administrations.

When Darren was Sheriff, he & TJ could be seen hanging out all the time. Especially at Capo's. Free lunch? Buffet for TJ. So TJ's seen plenty & it's got to be hush money.

Why doesn't the media pick up on this stuff? Why does Berry get a free pass for the mess his appointed administration has created? Votes of no confidence on White and Breen, not to mention both of thier lady friends alleged DUI's. Shultz and the entire department are under a microscope for shootings and other skeletons that keep jumping out of the closet. White on record saying he is "no fan of the fire department"...and on and on. All people hand picked by the Mayor to ensure "Public Safety". Where does it end?

Anonymous said...

I'm glad to see the Eye point out that Trish is not needed as PIO. A Sgt should be supervising officers. But then again, we all knew when she got promoted she would go right back to the PIO slot and never see real police work. Being buddies with the 5th floor pays. Literally in this case. My suggestion is for Sgt's and officers in the field to give interviews on camera that are outrageous. Maybe it will force these lazy SOBs to come out to scenes since they are getting comp and overtime anyway. What a bunch of horseshit. Those doing the work and being on call are limited in comp and overtime. Those who are friends with the 5th floor get the gold plated toilets.

Ask Rob Miller what happens when you give a statement to the media even when you are told to. DC feist was too damn lazy to get out of bed to give a statement so he forced Miller to do it. In the end, Miller gets pulled into IA and reprimanded. Talk about horseshit. Seem the req to be Commander and above is crooked, lazy, and no morals. They ALL NEED TO GO!

It is really sad to see the level of decline the department is in. Is there anyone with brass on their collar or chevrons on their sleeve worth a damn? We need good managers and supervisors, yes; but what we need more than ever are people that can LEAD - and it is apparent that most couldn't lead themselves, much less others, out of a wet paper bag! I welcome the DOJ investigation - at this point it seems to be the only way to illuminate the problem so we can make the necessary changes and regain the trust and confidence of the community.

A huge realization just hit me - Here we go again - stories get posted, comments get written, everyone hopes that the expose' by anonyous posters will change things, when in actuality, nothing has changed in the several years I have been reading "Eye". Darren White is still working, Peaches has not gone to rehab, Shultz and Berry are smelling like roses, TJ is still drawing a good paycheck while doing nothing, Hoffman can't frown, her lips are huger than ever, still flapping around in the breeze, and she works when she wants to - wearing fake pearls on TV spots. Nothing changes. I have wanted to create a "Eye on UNM" asking anonymous people help expose the corruption at UNM without fear of retaliation. That would be spinning my wheels. Our motto here is, "If it ain't broke, break it".

Speaking of the price of silence, we know all about Matt Kindles incident. When will APD vice be releasing the customer list for southwest companions? Run by past pres of UNM, and some of the prostitutes charged thousands of dollars a night. That isn't paid by working men or cops on lunch break. That's politicians and the power class of Albuquerque. When will that list come out? Who is vice and Schultz protecting?

@12:46...TJ works his ass off? I saw him at a conference during his "reassignment" to the EOC. He ate the free lunch and didn't even stick around for the lecture. I guess first impressions are everything to me, or maybe we just have different definitions of working.

I doubt there was anyone who doled out thousands of dollars for the dogs that were on that website. Most politicians are so darn cheap - no chance of them forking over more than a couple hundred and lie to the wife how they spent their pocket money! The men with big money don't need to hire an escort - willing women are a dime a dozen when you have a wad in your wallet. I have been around the block a few times so I know what I am talking about. That john list never be made public by Southwest Companions. There were too many UNM bigwigs on that list.

Well it was fun while it lasted. Everyone getting free food, gossiping, Larry Barker hanging out in a dark corner like some spider taking notes, waitresses getting banged in the parking lot. Poor Dan, they eat him out of house and home abused his waitresses, BUT he got a gig at the EXPO, 'Sex Ring Central'

Ah, life is good. Darren lands a big contract, Dan got Expo job, JT still packing away groceries and paid 80 grand to do that & Peaches is retired from the Capo debacle drivin around in her Porocha.

Panocha's Porocha is leased. Leave her alone - she has a seizure disorder, remember? Oh, and by the way, when a diagnosis of seizures is made, the doc is bound by ethics to make sure the person does not drive until the patient has had a normal EEG while not on medication - this is after at least six months on meds. Ask any physician or pharmacist..

I find it so amusing all these cops whine and cry about their worthless administration , but them and their union do nothing about any of it but snivel.

Clean your department from within. Instead of taking out your frustrations on civilians, start shooting your administration instead.

It is not like a APD cop would ever get convicted for murder anyway.

Jacobson was the marketing director, not salesperson, for Quaker. One of the top executives in the entire company.

She graduated from Wharton Business School. You know, the IVY LEAGUE school ranked #1 by the Financial TIMES as best business school in the country.

Oh no, she's not qualified at all to market New Mexico....

Unfortunately the entire department is living in a culture of scare tactics and threats from the brass!! To think the mayor is oblivious to all the hook me ups is ignorant. As far as the PIO’s go, kick princess (Trish) to the field and actually make her work. The Lieutenants should be held as POI’s for their watch, Porky pig (Wilham) should be sent packing period, all the hook me up spots that are taken by rehires (detectives, academy, range, etc… should be put out for Jr officers to apply for. Enough is enough, dc’s gotta go, Banks, Paiz, Feist, and the IA unit needs to get cleaned out. God knows since the city doesn’t use redflex anymore, Schultz is dying to keep his job!!

Schultz is eligible to retire now. Anyone have any logical or good reason why this POS is still staying around? C'mon Ray, it's time to pack your shit up and leave. Behind Darren, you are the second most disliked, Civil rights violating SOB. That dear friends, is no rumor. So TJ, Ray, Trish, get your lying little fingers off the keyboard and go do the right thing...Get the hell out of APD.

Anonymous said...

I have never seen a police department as dysfunctional as APD. I cannot figure out how someone who has cost the city millions (Schultz) keeps his job. Anywhere else he would have been gone, but not in Albuquerque. Since the mayor will not remove him, where is the city council? I am to the point where I think the only way Schultz will be removed is through community protests, everday, at the police station and mayor's office. This is the only way we are going to get change. Without changing the police leadership nothing else will change. No matter what Schultz says, he has created this problem. He owns this problem. He is not able to fix nor change this problem. Schultz is the problem.

No one can or will do anything about the corruption? Hmmmm...let's see, Darren White is no longer employed now, is he? So, to say that this blog or "anyone" cannot do anything about what is going on - is wrong. It takes time my dear friend. Time is always on "our" side. It's always a matter of "When", not "if".

Never underestimate the power of the people.

That is what I said - Chavez was corrupt and abusive, con hijos de donde quiera. We were told Berry would change things, first by changing the police chief.

Didn't he have an affair with another officers wife? Kind of status quo for APD. With Schultz as chief I would expect him to become a commander, as it seems you must have adultery in your background to become a policy maker at APD.

There is a word that best describes Barboa. Asquerozo. As a matter of fact this word can be used for quite a few pseudo playboys working there. What is with these men? In the 60s I was a young mother of three and there was a deputy who drove past my home in the SW valley and would follow me when I was out and about. He was gross looking, old and obese and had the nerve to stop and talk to my husband one weekend and made it sound as though he and I were friendly. He knew my name and my kids' names. fortunately we moved to SF and I never had to be afraid of him again.
