For many years, APD’s sergeant Ryan Buckner was Ray Schultz’s golden boy. From being handpicked in his assignment to ROP virtually upon lateraling over to APD from State Police, to going to Auto Theft upon promotion to sergeant, to serving on the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, to ending up as the sergeant of APD’s Intelligence Unit. While at Intel, Buckner received highly privileged training where he spent several months in Langley, VA in training programs run by, what our Eyes tell us, the CIA. Buckner was flown back and forth from Albuquerque to Langley dozens of times and our Eyes tell us several tens of thousands of dollars of local and federal funds were spent on his training.
While in APD, Buckner was also Schultz’s chief hatchet man. From running the investigation on Brad Ahrensfield to the case involving former officer Matt Kindle and last year’s case against former officers Robert Woolever and John Doyle, it’s clear, Buckner was Schultz’s “go to” guy for hi-profile investigations involving APD cops. What’s ironic though is Buckner all but lacks any investigative experience in actual case work. Why would Schultz assign cases to personnel who lack any significant experience in the subject matter of the criminal allegations? Buckner never worked impact or violent crimes yet he was assigned the Doyle/Woolever case under the pretense that it was an incident of aggravated battery. Buckner never worked vice, yet he was assigned the Kindle case which involved nearly a dozen charges relating to prostitution and the Ice House prostitution ring. Bucker never worked internal affairs, yet he was assigned the Ahrensfield case.
There is also the matter of David Young. Our Eyes tell us Buckner was knee deep in reserve officer David Young’s old activities of unlawfully arresting prostitutes. Given Buckner’s status as a supervisor in SID, did Buckner have access to privileged information on Young? Was it Buckner who actually burned Young? And was Buckner acting on orders from Schultz?
Buckner’s activity clearly reveals a pattern and it is clear he was Schultz’s minion for officer investigations. It is also clear these actions are in violation of SOPs, but as we know, Schultz follows and disregards SOPs as he sees fit on a regular basis.
But now, with all this expectation of Kindle’s case headed to trial, a deal is cut where the former officer pleads “no contest” to the only standing charge the state could competently go after him on: public corruption. For that, Kindle received 50-hours of community service and 364 days of probation. But with so many charges leveled against Kindle why is it he was able to plea to such a simple misdemeanor?
Well, our Eyes tell us, that the State’s primary witness, Ryan Bucker, was not cooperating, perjured himself in grand jury testimony against Kindle and has all but disappeared. You see, he retired a few months ago from APD and we are told he now is a civilian contractor for Wackenhut, Inc. After years of special treatment, privileged assignments, and endless highly sought after training, Buckner abandoned the department that has spent so much time and money on him to be a….security guard?
Our Eyes tell us, this is status quo for any cases handled by Buckner. But while we are disgusted with the conduct of Kindle, who was caught on video doing bizarre sexual conduct, we are left with significant questions for Buckner:
Why has the city not pursued him for reimbursement for training costs?
Why has the DA not gone after him for perjury charges?
What has happened to all the “cases” Buckner worked on?
Why has the state’s LEA Board not gone after Buckner’s certification for untruthfulness?
Why has Schultz remained silent on all of these issues?
What files did Buckner take with him to Wackenhut?
What is Buckner’s involvement with reserve officer David Young?
What is Buckner’s relationship with T.J. Wilham?

I dont' know much about Kindel's case; however, if continued to this path of distractions god onlyy know what would have happened. You ccan't tell me that 34's have messed around on duty and never been caught. I am sure there are a lot of videos out there. Lets use be patience and see what happens out.
Why all the questions? The apathetic cops won't do their part in getting rid of the mayor or chief. Sometimes life sucks.
Caught red handed for all to see.
IT'S GOOD TO BE THE HACHET MAN NEXT UP FOR REWARDS AND FOLLOWING BUCKNER PECK
Kindle boasted how he would take chicks from the Ice House over to D'Amato's basement and 23 them there. DA wanted this case to go away for the giant Pandora's box it wd open. And poof, surprise surprise it's gone.
If I was an undercover working the Ice House that was outed by Kindle, I'd be asking these questions and a whole lot more.
For a blog that chews TJ's ass more than once a week, you sure do buy into his lies. David Young followed SOPs and did not illegally arrest prostitutes. That, Dear Stealth, was fabricated by none other than TJ. Who also fabricated the evidence room scandal. Check your facts and your own blog before posting such drivel. I say this directly to you "Stealth" because the eye won't post this.
Just how much privileged information was Buckner provided over the years where he, instead of pursuing the crime itself and parties directly involved, twisted and manipulated information to set-up a fellow 34 for personal promotion or political solvency? Case in point, Buckner had information that directly implicated “The Shop,” or employees thereof, in residential burglaries where vehicles and/or drive-out stickers from “The Shop” were being utilized. This information was known well in advance of the Ahrensfield case. So, rather than focusing on facts that may have led to breaking up an organized burglary ring that was in operation under the roof of Darren Whites then close buddy, Shawn Bryan, (Actually Bryan was closely affiliated with countless city officials and politicos including Dingle-Berry himself.) Buckner perpetuated the weak narcotics case against a single mechanic who was employed by “The Shop.” More specifically, a mechanic who performed regular maintenance on SID vehicles was the only suspect of the narcotics case. Need we be reminded that arrangements had previously been made while Darren White was at the helm (appointed by Berry) to have “The Shop” under contract solely for SID vehicles? Now why would White allow for members of a supposed narcotics ring perform any kind of work or have any involvement with police vehicles, with undercover SID vehicles, or with the very narcotics officer’s vehicles that would be investigating “The Shop.” Everything is already in place for a set-up (to plant drugs). And, how ironic is it that Berry ran on a platform that focused on property crimes, and certainly residential burglary constitutes a property crime, yet his very supporters and appointees may have been directly or indirectly involved in committing property crimes. Need we also be reminded that Buckner was assigned to SID during this time? Buckner had extremely limited experience in felony investigations, and even less in narcotics investigations. What he did have experience in was being a rat and a company-man who was never trusted by anyone (making him a perfect set-up candidate) below the rank of Chief. And let’s also not forget how Ron Olivas had also recently been assigned to SID, again with almost zero experience in felony or narcotics investigations. But what Olivas had was a friendship with Ahrensfield, he was well known-well liked (at the time), and had was known for looking out for others’ best interest. Olivas was provided privileged information regarding “The Shop” investigation and in-turn gave Ahrensfield a “heads-up.” Was Olivas knowingly involved or was he just a patsy who would do exactly what Buckner and others expected him to do as part of their charade? Olivas was absolved of any criminal charges. So considering how weak the narcotics case was and how it netted absolutely nothing, you’ve got to wonder if it was just more so a distraction that was intended to keep other politically involved persons from (property crimes) implications. Was Buckner really conducting a narcotics investigation or was he called in to clean up a mess with a “smoke and mirrors” investigation that resulted in a good cop being fired and being federally charged for, not a narcotics crime and not a property crime, but for interfering. Wow, Ahrensfield interfered less than White who was never charged at any level even though it is widely known that White, by way of his wifey, provided Bryan with information of the “narcotics investigation” before Ahrensfield ever did, who by the way did it for the purpose protecting uninvolved persons (his own son) from being caught up with the mechanic who was being investigated. That seems like a reasonable motive to “interfere” (if that’s what you want to call it), but what was White’s motive? Again, was Buckner tasked with a narcotics investigation or was he called in to clean up a mess that would be far greater than a single cop going down. That level of corruption is purely evil.
8:11- You are right on the money, they fear people like you who have figured it out. But they wont get to burt that mess forever. Buckner will have answer as to why he lied and used deception to commit crimes in order to protect schultz. There's four primary targets that really should have been put away, Buckner,schultz,wilham, white. I sat through the entire trial, everyone else, even if you dont like any of them, are all innocent.
at 0750, do you have grapes for brains? Young had no authority to arrest people nevermind prosecute cases. He couldn't do traffic stops on his own nevermind suppouts. How many times did he flash his detective's badge in front of others at Car Shop? Nothing in SOPs granted Young the activity he was doing for OVERTIME PAY. And oh, yeah, who was going after Young and Schultz for their illegal activities? Mary Han. Does not take a rocket scientist to figure this out. Schultz wanted Young burned AND Rob Smith, so he had Buckner leak info out to his good pal TJ. They didnt expect TJ to leak it to Mary Han who of course went after Schultz through Young like a FireandForget missle. Ooops, Schultz didn't plan on that. And ooops, Schultz didn't plan on getting caught with his dick wet either. Get rid of Han and problem solved. Young gets sidelined. Smith retires in disgrace. TJ gets hired (and hired again). And Buckner fades away knowing he'll get hemmed up on perjury and subject to subpoena beyond his wildest imagination...
And oh look, there's still a federal lawsuit lurking around going after Young.
Just wondering what Heather Hindi-Chavez is thinking with all this testimony on Levi's mistresses while he was with her? She was always nice to me and had a good head on her shoulders. Its mind boggling to think she stayed with him, anyone know the current story?
June 19, 2013 at 9:45:00 PM MDT
Fishing, are we??? The current story??? Go to TMZ and get the bullshit drama that you are looking for... Frkn loser POS... Why would a hooker-tramp care about other hooker-tramps, and even care what they have to say??? That's part of the mentality that has killed APD...
What is the update on Murdoch?
No what's killed Apd are these two bozos and the head thief Schultz. And people like Greg Weber who might as well have done what a 23r does.
No. The mentality that has killed Apd is that few have the balls to step up. HH shda knocked the piss out of Levi. BW shda knocked the piss out of Fernando. But oh look, Weber gets his add handed to him by Steph Lopez and now that backstabbing pick willoughby becomes Rays best friend us betrays the very cops who voted in the majority. Bunch of snakes in APD.
9:45,
Chicks dig losers. Always have. Don't be so surprised my boy, maybe some years under your belt will make you understand this.
Yes because the more years you have under your belt, the bigger loser you are.
Heather Hindi de Chavez "thinking"??? Now that's FRESH......
Wonder how many more BIMBOS will be paraded into court... Levi is a small man with the typical small man complex... ICK ICK ICK...
Levi and Heather are in love leave them alone! They have a secret agreement that he is only allowed to have 4 girlfriends on the side instead of his usual 16. Let them live in peace. Let the trial run its course and lets see what happens?
Levi and Matt should hookup!

The CIA.... Hahahahaha...
They might have taught Buckner how to play hide and seek like the pantywaste that he is but one thing is for sure, that punk ass sissy would have folded in the first phase of CIA training.
There is very strong information from very reliable sources that a certain "decorated" vice-squad detective lieutenant had a "love" relationship going with a prostitute. This prostitute was the one who "exposed" the Southwest Companions website. Yes, corruption has been rampant. but covered up, in APD.
What lie did Buckner state in grand jury? Be specific I want to know.
Why does Buckner need to lie when you have Sandy on the case??? That is the big issue. Sandy should be doing ATF cases since he is so credible.
I cannot for the life in me see the attraction Hindi has/had for Levi.
I'm still waiting for Tera's Dad to just blow him away, that was his love that was taken away by a POS, and Ray-ray is as much to blame. Don't understand how a once great department became trash.
8:40,
Answer: Raymond D. Schultz
Maybe d'amato and his bandits wife took care of the witnesses? Or maybe Kindle was gonna spill about the talent he used to bring over to his office after working at the Ice House? Or maybe Kindle dimed out his bingo buddies that steal winnings from Diane Archuleta???
Levi is going to insist he was unaware of his wife's affairs with ANYONE(COP or NOT).
Hindi? Call her by the name she helped destroy a womans life for, Chavez. She earned that name and she will forever be associated with that murderer. Bet she is kicking herself now that she is still going to have to take the stand.
been out the loop for a while but the same reliable information on the Decorated detective shows that he actually has a child with the same prostitute that dimed Southwest companions,was involved in the Murdoch case, and kindle and she is hiding somewhere in the upper northwest and nobody can find her. the truth is that he had several shady CI's to include 23er's, so-called UC's and even some guy who would flash a badge from OMI at several crime scenes or just show up to calls. since then havent seen any of those cats show up anywhere since alot of this was exposed. not even the guy with a fake Irish accent. the truth is it was smoke and mirrors used with murdoch and Kindle if you dont believe me I wish you could see the video's yourself. plus the wy they handled the investigations you would think they were fisherman.
The cat with the fake accent is claiming to have been hit by a trash truck.he is trying to file against the city but he has no witness to the accident. Goes by the name bodie littlejohn has been telling people he's a 34 so be warned look him up on NMcourts.com
