Former APD Officer Brad Arensfield addressed the Albuquerque City Council and spelled out what he has been through with APD and the retaliation he has suffered. Arensfield told the Council that he could not understand how Chief Ray Schultz, who was convicted in a United States Federal District Court of civil rights violations, is still allowed to serve on the New Mexico Law Enforcement Board. Arensfield stated that Schultz is a liar and runs APD with the use of retaliation. Arensfield offered proof from the records provided to him by the FBI.
Arensfield read the record out loud. It stated then, Deputy Chief, Mike Castro, was ordered to do an investigation on Arensfield as retaliation for testifying at a homicide trial involving another APD officer. As a result of the testimony given by Arensfield, the officer who was off duty when the death occurred was cleared. Schultz wanted the other officer fired as a result of the (justified) murder. After being cleared, this opened the way for the other officer to be reinstated with APD. This infuriated Schultz.
Arensfield is set to be sentenced shortly for obstruction of justice in an FBI investigation. Arensfield was convicted of notifying a friend about what he believed was an APD investigation. Arensfield’s son worked at the business that was being targeted. Arensfield removed his son and told the owner about the investigation. The owner stated that he already knew about the investigation because Darren White’s wife had been texting the owner’s wife about the investigation with all the details. White told the owner and his wife that he would take care of all of it and clear Arensfield. According to the owner, White claimed that it was all a political set up. The owner claims White lied at the FBI trial and failed to follow through on his promise to correct the record.
Schultz has lied several times and proof does exist. The question then becomes, why does Berry keep him? "The writing is on the wall." It is time for Berry to clean house.
Arensfield acknowledges his poor judgment but this case does not warrant prison. Knowing how corrupt White and Schultz are, this is a good time to show your support for Arensfield.

I seriously thought Ray was going to stroke out right in front of Levy and everyone tonight at the meeting. Guess Ahrensfield's honesty made his hemorrhoids flare up! Buh Bye Ray!!!
Darren, your pain in the ass is just starting. No amount of percs is going to be able to ease this pain for you.
I feel so bad that Brad is going through this mess. Schultz is a master of retaliation. He holds grudges forever too. Doesn't matter if you leave APD or not, he still finds ways to make your life hard. He uses the LE Board as his henchmen. What will it take for his reign of terror to end?
Schultz and White are no one to cast stones and condemn anyone. They are black mailers, extortionists, and should not be walking free like some of the Nazis after world War II for the atrocities that THEY have covered up over the years. In fact it is the cover ups and lies that have allowed the two of them to remain free. They are the best of their craft. CON artists.
Darren preaching justice and his honor and his respect for the legal system on Villanucci today is enough to make one sick.
Their is no perversion low enough to describe Darren White. A very demented self serving toad of a man.
Karma babe. Got you covered babe! Not words you ever want to hear from Darren White, just ask Brad or Shawn.
Jim Villenucci;
Seriously, you can't possibly think Darren White is an honorable person
(can't say man)
You have stated that you are neutral and are not picking sides, but we all know what your really think.
Kathy, you are living in a very dangerous world.
Do yourself a favor and turn States evidence.
This appears to be a pure and simple case of selective prosecution. However it appears Arensfield conduct is legally questionable and a case against White and his wife should be opened with them receiving at least five times the penalty of Arensfield--that does not include probation.
Sorry Brad , you should have spoke up and taken action concerning the problems in APD instead you waited until the corruption had a negative effect on you before you bothered to speak up.
I wish you luck , but you chose to stay in a corrupt police department and would have continued to keep your mouth until it was you that got harmed by the corruption. You didn't care about the public when you watched the corruption swirl around you why should the public care about you now?
Please change your comment policy to reflect the truth. Postings must await moderator approval. That by definition is pre-moderation.
That is fine , but at least be honest about it.

I rise to a small point of order. Can we please refer to Schultz as DC Schultz? He has always been the second in command behind Darren, and incapable of making a decision without Kathy Levy. He has never been a true 'chief'.
Mayor BlueBERRY still hiding in the closet?
Your approval rating is sinking like a rock in the water with every passing day.
A big raspBERRY for you RJ
hey Buchner this tdy wouldnt be the powers that be getting you out of town for a while in relation to your little dirty deeds would it??? Lets see, Darren...gone Ray on his way out...your running out of pals PUNK...
Really Councilors !
Is Dan Lewis the only Republican who has a set?
He's the only one even though the potential for ramifications from the Rs in his election to Congress could be jeopardized, is not afraid of Darren, Ray or RJ (mayor Milk Toast.)
Brad, what up with you of all people? Darren hates your guts, you know it and you brag about how you don't like him and what a POS he is. You've had opportunity after opportunity and was in your cross hairs and you did nothing.
Is your re-election that important. I can see if you were a sally Mayer or a Trudy Jones, that would have to rely on $17,000, but you are well off. Not gettin it.
how awesome Brad busting Ray in front of the council and Shawn tearing Darren a new ass on kob...what a great start to the week maybe just maybe the truth will come out....
BULLETIN !!!!! IMPORTANT FOLKS
ALL MEDIA; Channels 4,7,13, EYE, Joe Monahan, Journal, City Council.
Ilana Gold, NM Attorney General, The United States Department of Justice.
The paper ran as story the other day that Darren White was going to file a law suit against the City, & State Health Dept. Anyone with the smallest of brain could figure out there is no case here. It is a rouse. It is nothing more than a plot.
HERE'S THE PLOT; Darren is 9 1/2 years short from retiring. The City knows there are no grounds or merit to the case. SO, the city is planning on SETTLING with Darren enough money to purchase the 9 1/2 years from PERA so that he can get full retirement & bennies. Simple round numbers are as follows. He needs to contribute $50K a year to PERA do so. Where might that come from since he has walked away from his job with nothing but $16,000 in back vacation time (wink wink) and is FLAT BROKE because he cashed in his PERA retirement years ago to live it up in High Desert.
SO, in order to pull off this scam, this caper, he needs around $450,000.00, which the City plans in forking over to darren in one lump sum.
(With me so far?) that's $50k X 9 years.
That goes to Pera to buy those 9 years he needs, guaranteeing him full retirement for life in the tune of about $100,000 a year. He, along with Rob Perry, Mayor Bluebery and Kathy Levy in the attorney's office have hatched this elaborate scheme which will cost the taxpayers huge for a frivolous bogus case that they DO NOT Have to settle.
This is DEAD F_ _ KING WRONG !!
How can this be allowed?
The Public should be freaking outraged.
Nobody's supposed to know, but we be knowing now.
MAYOR BERRY; SHAME ON YOU. EAGLE SCOUT? Mr. MORALITY, MR. ETHICS BACK TO CITY HALL? That's what you told us when you ran for Mayor.
I don't know what our city leaders ( City Council)can do about this, but with this kind of continuous corruption going on, is it any wonder why, people are calling for a special investigation or the Department of Justice to come in here and take over this City and throw all these people in jail?
Now you see why Darren Ray & Craig Loy were yukking it up this morning? THE FIX IS IN.
HOW INCREDIBLY CRIMINAL ARE THESE PEOPLE?
Thanks Peaches; you have a BIG MOUTH.
For once I Know Nothing Shultz was speechless after the meeting last night. We need to keep it that way. Shut up Ray Boy and take your lumps like the cockroach you are.
And when is Jim Villanucci going to stop drinking Darren's koolaid, what a moron.
Xmas came early to Albuquerque!! Darren White got his stuffing handed to him by Shawn Bryan on the Villanucci show as Darren learned you shouldn't talk smack about people who might pick up the phone, call 243-3333 and tell the entire state you're a filthy freaking liar (which you are, DARREN).
Icing on the cake? Brad Ahrensfield stood before the City Council an hour and called Chief Schultz out TO HIS FACE. Looked Schultz dead in the eye and told him he was a liar.
That's what a real man does Schultzie. They tell you what they think about you to your face. Not behind your back like a weasly little #$&@! who keeps files on everyone.
RAY SCHULTZ. GONE BEFORE THE END OF AUGUST AND GOOD RIDDANCE
Let's see how that works out for you Beth. LOL!!!!
Please keep after them Brad. As they say, the truth will set you free. Darren can only keep up this pathetic routine for so long.
"Ohhh, APD was out to get me because they just knew what a great CPSO I would be so they broke into Shawn's house and lied about drugs being sold at his place in order to make ME (the great White hope) look bad. But I'M GOING TO RIGHT THIS WRONG because you and Shawn are my FRIENDS. I'll do that until I have to take the stand then I'll commit PERJURY and deny I ever knew you because I don't want me and Kathy the Pill Popper to take the hit for being the ones who really leaked the information about FBI investigation."
Keep talking Shawn and Brad. It's THE LAST THING Darren and Ray want.
What happened to Ray's 'White Paper' he was going to present throwing Marty Chavez under the bus and blaming him for all the shit that is going on NOW?
Mayor Berry, stop whining like Obama. You may have inherited some budget stuff, but you didn't inherit Darren White-y and all the shit he and Ray have done since you took office. This is on your watch. This is on you, and you alone.
Good luck with all of the incompetence of these a-holes and good luck with your own incompetence and your perception of what it takes to be mayor. It shows and the results of the next election will expose the empty suit that you are. You relied on Campbell and Darren to run this city; now what? Keep loose cannon Perry and that weasel Schultz around.
It works better for us.
When you hear a knock on the door, come out from under your desk (W/Beth). It will be the Department of Justice wanting the keys to the City.
Brad, thank you for standing up and stating the truth. The truth is something APD brass and admin. are not used to hearing, in fact they wouldn't know the truth if it jumped up and bit them on the face. You have given a lot of rank & file out there hope that new leadership is on the way, and that it is always good (and cathartic) to get it off your chest. I bet it was sweet to read the FBI documents out loud, in front of the citizens of Albuquerque, to Chief Schultz! I posted on KOB.COM as well, a thank you. I think the city of albuquerque in general, will look very different administratively in the coming months.! God Bless you and your family!
Jim,
Seriously; you don't understand any of this? There's an innocent man going to prison because of Darren's dirty deeds. When will you really see him for what he is? Some day you will come to that realization. Too bad you don't see the light now.
You are a common sense , smart guy. We the public just understand your naivete when it comes to Darren.
He has you smoked just like he had with so many over the years. Not anymore. C'mon, catch up with us. This guy's dirty. Don't drink his juice without knowing what's in it.
I have to say, being a Villanuci fan for years, he really disappointed me yesteray.
LISTEN UP VILLANUCI..I KNOW YOU READ THIS BLOG:
GET OFF THE "FRIENDS WITH DARREN WHITE" TRAIN. Yes, we all understand that he's your friend, and you repsect him, but you don't know him the way others do. You only know him through your dealings with him at 770. He's a dirtbag lying peice of crap, and at the end of the day he's going to make you look stupid. Do the kind of digging you did for Elton Richard. YOU can uncover the truth...it's all out there for everyone to see. SAVE BRAD AHRENSFIELD!!!
By the way, your claim on your show that you didn't know anything about this case is a joke among those that really know you. You've followed it, you've read this blog and the comments, and you've seen everything that's out there. DO THE RIGHT THING AND GET INVOLVED! YOU CAN HELP SAVE AN INNOCENT MAN, AND YOU KNOW IT!
Comment above: 1:14 PM.
YOU NAILED IT !!
On the radio yesterday, it was hilarious when Jim V. feigned ignorance in the BA case. "What is this guy Shawn talking about? I don't know what is going on". White was so shaken, all he could say is, "This guy needs help". Jim V. flip flops all the time. During the Murdoch debacle, he was first knocking the poor old judge, then when the crowd started yelling "set up" Jim V. agreed. I listen to KOB on the way home to get the latest traffic report and once in a blue moon hear something interesting. The way Shawn read White his beads on the air was a treat!
PEACHES (KATHY) RUN. SAVE YOURSELF. SAVE YOUR SOUL.
TALK TO THE GENTLEMAN THAT REACHED OUT TO YOU.
DON'T GO DOWN WITH DIRTY DILLINGER.
THEY WILL TAKE YOU DOWN WITH THEM AND IT IS NO PLACE FOR A LADY.
When everything settles and the smoke clears, Shawn and Brad are going to look like PFC Downey and Lance Corporal Dawson from A Few Good Men
They may have made a mistake but only because they were carrying out orders. Ain't that right, Darren?
Fess up, White. YOU ordered the Code Red. YOU'RE the one who should be going to prison.
To sum up Brad's commentary in front of the city council last night, he stated that he learned to be a retaliatory abusive cop from his superiors? Did anyone else hear anything differently?
"DAMN STRAIGHT I DID"
Yes Darren you did. You ordered the "Code Red'
Put Darren under the light, or on a witness stand with the right prosecutor and he will fold like a cheap suit. In fact given the right circumstances he will throw Ray, Mayor Dah, and PEACHES under the bus, so fast it will make your head spin.
Wouldn't surprise me one damn bit if he hasn't already locked himself a deal.
He has already.
Peach jam, get wise. Shit is coming.
There's a little surprise 'Butter Bean' doesn't know about.
Make the deal.
Villanuci knows all about what is going on. He admitted that for months people have been discussing this. He either projects himself to be a ignorant (by not going on the Internet and reading about Brad), or he is lying to everyone by denying he knows anything.
Don't believe any of these people, politicians or media types, when they say they don't know. If their lips are moving they are all lying. Just look how long it took KOB, KOAT and KRQE to even begin reporting on any of this. The local media is in bed with all the politicians. So Jim V, please don't BS us about not knowing anything. I give you credit for being a lot smarter than that.
WASHINGTON CHATTER;
Code readers are saying;
"Ely's coming, hide your heart girl" ....and I'm not talkin' "Three Dog Night" either.
Peaches better leave unless she WANTS a 'Three Dog night'
She will sure as shit get dragged into this.
Ray will resign very soon to avoid getting bit.
"Who let the dogs out, woof, woof"
Dareen & Ray; your happy frolicking walk on the track field has sure turned too shit now. Daren's attempt at the 'poor me' bullshit on Villenucci yesterday backfired.
Call up Craig Loy for some more bad advice.
"Monday, Monday, can't trust that day."
Darren has to stick around now so Perry can award him a settlement from the city to buy his 9 1/2 years of PERA..
Maybe the Calvery (DOJ) will get here just in time.
Only way out is if D & P hold up on a Res. somewhere.
Then again, paleface may not be welcome there either, unless they have some thing to trade; bags of beans, sacks of potatoes or a bushel of Peaches.
Sure picked a winner there darlin.
Are you sure he can buy it back if he is no longer an employee. I thought the only time you could buy that back is when you are currently employed? Please advise!
he's still an employee!! He hasn't been dropped off the city payroll yet!!
I thought PERA allowed only 1 year of air time buy back and up to 5 years military buyback. At his rate of pay it would cost about $500,000 just for that & he still wouldn't be vested. Plus does he have that much military time?
Also how could he "retire" without being vested. I call it quiting before getting fired.
He can buy back previous time he cashed in earlier,besides military and air time.
