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. Compliments of one of our Eyes

Red Herring?

Last night we told you about the chaos over at APD. The 5th Floor has found itself in the middle of yet another scandal and has suspended former APOA President Ron Olivas and officer Brad Ahrensfield over the affair.

APD mouthpiece John Walsh refused to tell KOB TV reporter Jeremy Jojola why the two had been placed on administrative leave. But yesterday, we found out from our Eyes that the two had burned an FBI investigation. The target of the investigation was supposedly a 4th Street used car dealer that was dealing something other than cars to users.

Today we're hearing our Eyes that the FBI investigation didn't involve drugs at all, but rather white collar crime - as in embezzlement and tax evasion. The target of the investigation was and/or is the Albuquerque Police Officer's Association.

Apparently, the leak about the drug investigation was an attempt at misinformation in order to keep this thing away from the APOA until after next Tuesday's election.

Our Eyes tell us that Chief Schultz has flown into an almost uncontrollable rage. Apparently, he's afraid he'll lose his job and should one of the two mayoral challengers take the mayoral throne from The Almighty Alcalde, odds are he will lose his job particularly if indictments are involved.

Should the Chief lose his job before he's been in place 5 years, he would lose his 2nd PERA pension. Chiefs of Police qualify for a 2nd pension after 5 years of service. Our Eyes tell us that a Chief's pension is based on 80% of chief's pay and is a double dip. Schultz is already receiving his full pension based on his retirement at Deputy Chief's pay.

If you've read this blog for any length of time you know that there have been numerous questions about the APOA's use of member dues (read it here). Former union boss Ron Olivas was smack dab in the middle of these questionable activities.

Our newest information is that Aherensfield heard about the FBI investigation into the APOA and tipped off former APOA President, Ron Olivas.

It's possible that both sets of allegations are true and Olivas and Ahrensfield are simply caught in the middle of a perfect sh#% storm of their own making. However, we'd guess that our most recent information is correct and the information on a drug investigation is a red herring.

We know that the APOA has been involved in what can only be characterized as questionable financial activities - some of which could be considered criminal. So it simply makes sense that the APOA would be under the FBI's microscope.

Folks... the FBI is looking into something and it allegedly involves Ahrensfield and Olivas. What you can be sure of is that the FBI won't move on anything that could impact the upcoming city election - at least until after the votes are cast next Tuesday.

The investigation conducted by the eye confirms that the target of the investigation is Paul Heh and Jose Carrasco for overtime fraud. Paul is currently being investigated for using city time and city computers to update his "secret" website the Eye on Albuquerque. Also SOP violations for conducting traffic stops on DUI offenders and having somebody else do the complaint. Heh also is being investigated for sandbagging. Carrasco is a sausage.

The newspaper won't upset their little apple cart. Afterall if Marty's out, five people might have they're little scam inside investment deal out there at Mesa del Sol go up in smoke.
Journal owner Lang, Trudy Jones, Tim & Tina Cunnins & Marty are all at risk in losing there 'land scam' pie.
The journal wants nothing to do with printing a story that will negatively affect Marty's bid for mayor. So the citizens are essentially being misled and lied to, simply by the journal with holding pertinent information till after the election.

Lets all get together and impeach the entire board, make them all run again. We need a president who doesnt want anything in return and doesnt care about the 5th floor or the mayors office!

What's with all the anonymous posters calling each other out and criticizing everyone for being anonymous. Why not set up a "Rumble in the Rio" event. I'd pay to go watch that, though The Eye is good entertainment. It's also pretty darn accurate. The story (like all stories) may change and have several versions, but so far the Eye's story is pretty close to accurate.

Rumble in the Rio sounds like fun! So does a tug a war with a rope across a giant mud pit! The loser gets mud all over!

Anybody but marty farty!
