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.

COPS, Sheriff Houston, Berry, Transparency....Oh My!!!


 For those that were around in the 90s, APD used to have regular appearances on the Fox-TV show "Cops." For many of us, it was a source of pride because we got to see how well APD officers stood up against their counterparts in other, but much larger, cities such as Dallas, Phoenix, and Memphis. Not surprisingly, APD officers held their own, were very professional, and were a source of pride for the community and New Mexico.  Then of course the politicians got into it and were threatened by the show's, and APD's, popularity and terminated any more episodes showing APD cops at work. The excuse back in 2004 was that it cast Albuquerque in a poor light and threatened the city's economy.

Well, here we are 10 years later and we can see that plan failed because what was a good economy is now in shambles. But in support of his troops, Sheriff Houston has invited the producers of COPS to come back and start filming segments with his deputies. While we know many of our readers have issues with Sheriff Houston, we think a department leader who is willing to let the public see what his deputies do on a regular day-day basis should be applauded. After all, what's the harm in showing the public what public servants are up to?

Well, in the land known as Berryquerque, all that should be right is treated as wrong. While the city's mayor continues to SAY the city of Albuquerque is the most transparent it has ever been, we know their ACTIONS are far from agreement with his statements. In fact, from hiding lapel videos, police reports, financial disclosures, contract agreements, and employee perks, it seems everything and anything touched by Berry/Perry is tainted with fabrication or omission.

And they definitely don't like the idea of outside videographers filming their police force.

Why is that we wonder?

Why would the mayor of the state's largest police force NOT want the country to see his police department in action? After all, now many times has he said he's so gollee gee proud of his officers and his chiefs? One would think that with the new Chief Administrator of the Police Department (let's be real, Mr. Eden hasn't been a cop for quite a long time) this would be a great opportunity to show off how fine the department is operating?

And besides, Albuquerque's reputation as one of the most violent and cruel cities in the country has all but been confirmed since Berry/Perry took over. 

Anyways, we digress.  Bravo to you Sheriff Houston, we hope you don't yield to the pressure of Berry and his cronies. And we look forward to seeing the hardworking deputies of BCSO on a COPS broadcast soon....

But as a reminder Sheriff, we all know how quick Berry likes to take the stage with you...

Did Dan have to pay fine or spend the night in jail (at Berry's house cleaning the latrine with a toothbrush) for having his picture taken with a sigh saying Albuquerque on it in the background... OH MY!!! What has the city come too!!!!!

COPS is a good idea, and RJ is not smart for not letting them come film. However, Houston could give a shit about his deputies. He's doing this for his own publicity and right before the election.

His little fat troll Gonzalez took SWAT equipped vehicles that had been bought for the SWAT team and gave them to the chief deputies after they had already been assigned to SWAT members. Like they would ever respond to calls. These Chiefs all had brand new cars, but were greedy and wanted the SWAT Vehicles.

He cancelled our rifles for several special units and has repeatedly targeted deputies that don't agree with him to the point, several are sueing the department. No one will say a word, because we are all terrified of him, ask around. the guys evil, just like Schultz!

Everything Houston does is all about him! He's like your Chief Schultz, only stupid!

Than man's a total dictator. It's sad that a few of his top brass have sold their souls and do everything he says, even though they use to really bad mouth him, now they kiss his ass!

Don't believe me, look at his Facebook Page, not one single deputy is supporting him. Scott Baird has lots of deputies on his.

Our morale sucks unless you are his ass kissing top brass. CD Rees does care about our dept and we all wish he was the sheriff!

The poser above needs to freakin transfer to APD, if you don't like it here get out, no one is holding you back so leave! There are a lot of us that support Houston, Baird is a womanizer and is very weak, he can't make a decision to save his life and you know it, Baird would be terrible for us, another Martinez and Berry lover. Darren White is supporting him, what does that tell you? I agree though CD Rees is good for us.

Worked dope with Gonzales, now there's a real tool. That's all he and Russ did was get drunk and chase lots of women. They sucked as dope Dets! I am surprised the two were never arrested.

Interesting how he became the US, he was the sheriff's biggest critic! Now it's serious sucking and ass kissing for him!

Everyone knows this just like he does.

How do you pay him over 6 figures with his high school ed?

Anonymous said...

Well whether it's for Houston are not, as an APD 34 I say good for him if for any reason Berry is freaking out. Crime stats are through the roof. And all we heard last fall was what a delightful little city Abq is. Yeah. Maybe compared to the capital of Somalia.

The same guys first to release lapel cam footage when it benefits admin, and the first to deny it exits if it doesn't fit the agenda, surely don't want filming and editing to occur out of their direct control. These guys are not afraid of tarnishing The Duke City's stellar reputation...they are simply cowards. Stay classy Albuquerque.

What do you mean, are you serious, Gonzales has a HS diploma? At least its not a GED! That explains a lot. You mean to tell me he gets paid $100,000? No way! Paiz has a Masters degree, did he get paid this much at least?

Houston's not a cop, he's a politician.

CID has some state of the art tracking devices ordered and the sheriff cancelled them and used the money to pay his attorney's fees for all his lawsuits. Those tracking devices would have put us on the cutting edge of investigating theft in the county.


How many people have already left him and are now suing him. Most of them range from Lt's on up, a some deputies also.

With the exception of Tyler and Reese, the entire headquarters command all have high school educations! Not saying that education is everything, but this is sad when you consider most of the command staff leading our department have basic educations. This explains all the dumb ass stuff they do.

No wonder why are sheriff makes mistake after stupid mistakes and can barely pronounce words!

Anonymous said...

Perry, Tourek, Berry, Banks, all their minions, and all those that came before them are nothing without control and the power they derive from it. That was made perfectly clear to the public when Perry and Wheeler went after the guy filming the guilty parties reactions, to a citizen raking them over the coals over their involvement in the Mary Han case, at the City Council meeting back in January. And their going apoplectic over COPS coming to town, outside of their control, just reaffirms their lust for power. How many more dead bodies will be turning up?? Can anyone say 'west mesa'.....

I remember when the news caught Houston fixing up a nice 4X4 for himself. He jacked it up, new rims, carpet and a remote alarm to start his vehicle when it was hot or cold. He got caught by the news, so he lied and gave it to the SWAT commander and said it was always for the SWAT commander. Our Lt was happy, he did not know he was going to get a nice lifted up/loaded truck in SWAT. Those chiefs still spend taxpayer money on remote starts for their vehicles, so if it's hot/cold they can turn on the AC/heater. However, they hammer us when the engine is running. I saw the sheriff this summer a few times and he always left his engine running to keep his truck cool, but would get pissed at us. It's always running on the ramp when it cold as well.

They also did not want GPS, but may have put them in when the news stared asking. It's do as say, not as I do.

The sheriff has been better now that the election is coming up, he's looking for votes and appearing everywhere now and wants to be everyone friend, now! We know what will happen after the election.

Worked for Dan the devil as well called him back in CID. The man is an absolute jerk. I have never seen anyone treat employees worst than this guys does. That's how he got the nick name of The Devil. He sure lives up to the name. I can't imagine how bad it is now that he's the sheriff. I retired about a year before he came in, but would have left early had he won an earlier election. I would never work for that man again!


Worked around Matt, seemed to be a nice guy but just couldn't control his urged for the ladies or booze. He and Russell are thick as theives. It must pretty bad if he's now the US! surely they could have found someone more qualified! Also heard Katz, another tail chaser was a Chief Deputy, I just can't stop laughing my ass off. Houston sure knows how to pick them. I'll bet nothing is gettying done up there!

S. Sgt. Paul J. Heh (RET.) said...

Well Mayor I guess what you said at election time about the crime rate being down was not true. Is the reason you don't want Cops to film here is because you don't want the truth exposed or is it your lie exposed. Maybe other film producers will see how Cops have been treated and they will decide not to film in Albuquerque. I just have one question for you mayor. Are you able to tell the truth about anything ? YES or NO , we can do without the spin.

Dan destroyed the Region Task Force. A Lot of good cops lost their jobs because of the man. He blamed it on other stuff, but he just did not like Ernie, so he disbanded a great unit. All the Intel and exp det's all went out the window because he could not play nice with others! The guy's a real dumb shit. Thank good Boone picked it up, but the Det's were lost. The man's a compulsive liar!

I worked at the academy, and we were always making special deals for people from the sheriff's church. They would get multiple chances compared to other applicants, all at the sheriff's request. We were hammered a few times in the paper for it. It sucked working under those conditions. A few guys were disciplined for exposing the sheriff to the media. Chief Baird, who is an ok guy was able to fly up the chain because he was a church member that had worked on Houston's campaign. They screwed Rees out of a Capt's position that should have been his and gave it to Scott, not cool! Not going to even talk about Gonzales and Jason. We are the laughing stock, those guys hated Houston and now are his biggest ass kissers. It's embarrissing to see them around the sheriff, fighting to see which one can suck him off first!

Gonzales spends most of his time taking care of his boy McCoy. The guy get super special treatment, new cars, and great assignments. It's all about whose click your in with those guys. When the sheriff leave, they will latch on to the next guy, that's how they operate.

What Albuquerque desperately needs is representatives of the people, not leaders. Leaders have made Albuquerque a shambles..
Do the citizens want the COPS show here?? Were the citizens even asked? NO! This is the kind of shit leaders do, they make decisions on their own without even considering the people they are SUPPOSE to be representing. All of the corruption is coming to a head though, 2014 should prove to be a very interesting year! HA HA!

The sheriff was elected by the people to serve the people. From reading this it looks like he's just serving himself and his chosen few. It so important for the sheriff to select top commanders that have good clean records, well educated and most importantly, have the back of the men and women and the organization as their main priority.

It really looks like the sheriff has selected some bad apples to help lead his department and it clearly shows by the very poor morale. If he's not careful, it will be the next APD. We all saw what poor leadership did to that organization!

This is really sad and I hope we get some new leadership to protect and serve us.

@2:39 So much is Scott paying you to blog about Dan? We have not heard a thing about Houston until Scott announced, you think we are stupid? Go find another place to bitch about the Sheriff, we have bigger fish to fry. By the way, Terry should run, she has more brains, is better looking and has the guts to run the Department. Scott is lazy, thinks he is better than the rest of us and can't speak to save his life. So stay off here already, go get signatures or something!

Anonymous said...

I can't believe that the sheriff took SWAT equipped vehicles that were assigned to a SWAT team and reassigned them to his chiefs, especially chief's that already had brand new vehicles. That's one of the worst cases of poor leadership that I have ever heard of. Talk about self serving! That's just extremely low for a person that's suppose to be leading by example to do! I can't even imagine the damage that did to morale! You will never earn the respect from your deputies pulling stunts like that!

Sheriff, how can you look into a mirror knowing that you took equipment that was earmarked for your deputies, just so your chief's could have the vehicles they wanted to drive. All you needed to do was order more vehicles, but to take just because you can from deputies that need the equipment is just so very wrong! I hope you some day understand that being a true leader is getting your troops the equipment they need to do their jobs safely, so they can return home to their families every night, not so your chief's can ride around looking cool!

Being a true leader is putting the needs of your people and your organization first before your own needs.

How much did that cost the taxpayers, giving the chiefs brand new SWAT vehicles? I think the news should do a story on this?

All COPS producers need to do is submit an IPRA request for APD officer videos. They can put together shows for multiple seasons with all of the content. Such shows will match the popularity of all of those "People of Wal-Mart" e-mails that get forwarded via e-mail to millions of recipients and be cheaper to produce.

While there doing a news story on the SWAT Tahoe's. They should look at how the Sheriff created a new Chief Deputy position.

That's correct, we now have a sheriff, Undersheriff, and 3 Chief Deputies. Very top heavy for a LE organization! the new position was to drive Chief Deputy Baird out and make room for Jessica Tyler to come up.

The new Chief Deputy position cost the tax payers aver 100k a year. Now BCSO has more Chief's than APD and NMSP with a 1/3 of the force of the previous two mentioned.

The new Chief Deputy position is in charge of the Accreditation supervising a total of about 3 people, not cops either.

I think APD uses a Sgt for this position and NMSP a LT, We use a Chief and have had the position for over a year and nothing has been done considering we don't have all the other units that APD and NMSP have.

It's such a waste of taxpayer money that one of the news stations needs to do a story on it. We all think the sheriff did this to get his favorite deputy, Jessica Tyler up there on his floor.

The poor sheriff just can't avoid being in the middle of controversy. It would be nice if he practiced what he preached, transparency. He's about as transparent as mud and a compulsive liar! That's why the county just paid a fine of 140K on an IPRA request the sheriff did not honor. So the judge fined him 140K of taxpayer money. So much for transparency sheriff. Just give the employee that is suing you the required paper work the court has requested.

Sheriff, first I want to applaud you for making the SO all BCSO personnel. However, having said that, I think you should be aware of some potential issues that may bite you later. I was not going to say anything, but this blog made me decide to post.

I don't know how you vetted out your Undersheriff Gonzalez, but there are some things you should know. I have worked around Gonzalez for over 18 years and let me tell you this guy is a piece of work. He's just as bad as Scott was and even worse. This guy has no loyalty to anyone but Russ and Jason and a few others. He will stab you in the back like he has done to just about all his other friends, it's all about him and what's in it for him. I know for a fact, out of his mouth that he and Russ can't stand you. If you don't think it's true, ask around. The guy is as selfish as they come.

Ask him about his back ground and see if he's honest with you. The shit he and his group have done could have landed us in bad way. How do I know, I was there. Girls, wild partying, booze and driving drunk just to name a few. Don't think it's true, ask around, we all know what went on.

Just a word of caution, you know this department and know how we can eat our own. Gonzalez will burn you like Scott did. He's good at acting and playing the part, so keep and eye on your six! If you watch and listen, I am sure you will see clues. Don't let there be another Scott.

Take care and good job!

Unfortunately, LE in NM is full of dishonest, womanizing, power hungry dumb asses for the most part. I am glad Houston promoted Jessica, and its not her fault she is beautiful too, what do you think would happen if Scott was elected, Jessica would be right by his side, trust me, I know how he is.

I have no issue with the fact that Albuquerque is corrupt but I figured the upset over the city being a staple on COPS was exactly what it was presented to be. Albuquerque is a hell-hole that is constantly peddled to the world for cultural diversity, lovely sunsets, and the balloon fiesta and so on. I would not be surprised if allowing COPS back in has more to do with the popularity of Breaking Bad. They sell faux meth candy now for crying out loud. And so maybe it being a hell-hole is no longer at odds with selling the city and the state to gullible tourists, but a boon. The desert hell-hole, the ghettoasis, is now the 8the wonder of the world.

Those guys never stop anyone or take calls for service, the excuse they may try to use. Not even the chief deputies of APD drive trucks like that, they have cars, no bells, whistles or fancy alarms!

It's such a waste of tax payer money, because some of the SWAT guys now have vehicles that don't accommodate their expensive equipment, much less the fancy alarms to protect their guns!

Thanks for standing up to this idiot and exposing his lack of respect for the department and for all of you who wear the UNIFORM. Dan has SCREWED & lied to all of his friends, even those that supported him. He has screw many of you in the department, including those who thought they were Dan's friends. He ran off a great Under Sheriff Paiz, many other department officers too. What about this arrogant, self centered guy Daryl that had been running around saying he's going to be the next Under Sheriff, where is MATT Gonzales on this? I would be ticked off. Dan is letting this fool make Matt look like a moron to everyone out there. Matt, I would make Dan give me back my donation of $500.00 if he did that to me. Some of you complain about Baird, he was a "friend" of Dan's & look what Dan did to Baird. WHY do you think Dan has NO FRIENDS? Hate to see all of the Department blasting each other over DAN. Get rid of him and things will be better. He care nothing about any of you in the department. Dan is in this for himself. I know many of the FINE deputy's of BCSO, Your service is to be honored and respected. Dan has been a DISGRACE to BCSO. He has ruined good officers careers, and peoples lives. If you stand against Dan (Even when he is trying to do something against the union or the department SOP), your going to be run out of office. He claims to be a Christian but many of you have seen the yelling, the demeaning way that he treats many of you, the way he cusses and screams at people is disgusting for a man of the Sheriff's office or a man that "claims" to be a Christian. Can't blame his former church, his former friends or anyone else. DAN is the fake, the fraud, the LIAR. Oh, what about the things he says about women, that says a lot about his "lack of character". He has a 98% disapproval rating among you officers. He waist so much money on knives, pimped out Taho's, lawyers, fines for not turning over papers to a judge, kicks ladies off their medical insurance, and on & on & on. Look at him, since all of this has been coming to light, with all the lawyers, EEOC, Ethics violations, and trying to cover up all of his lies, he looks tired, weak, defeated and sick. Lets get someone who cares about this department, someone who will stand with the officers of BCSO. All of us out here Thank you for your service.

That is lack of self confidence and lack of moral character. Matt took the Taho's only because Dan told him too. Matt as US is not being allowed to do his job just like Ron Paiz was not able to do his job. Dan is a micro managing Dictator. He has to have his hands in everybody's pants. Ya think Ron left because he was board? Ron was told what to do and when to do it. Ron thought he was going to work for a good Christian guy. He found out that Dan was just the opposite. Dan has mad Ron and Matt look bad to the troops and ruined a lot of relationship because he expects his US,& DC to put their jobs before their FAMILIES. Regardless, guys like Paiz, Baird, and Rees care about the troops, and why is it that you see the good guys leaving? That's the question that needs to be asked.

Hey February 20, 2014 at 4:45:00 PM MST, When Dan came into BCSO, it became a violent work place, with intimidation, harassment, jobs being held over your heads, it was hard for any of you to work in that kind of environment. Dan has to hire people around him and then ORDER them to spend time with him. Remember he has no friends. Even those that do get promoted for what ever reason, they don't stay around him very long. WHY? Because they finally see who Dan really is and they can't stand him. Dan is pure evil. Wolf in sheep's clothing. Katz, Matt and ALL of the other DC's are doing what they have to to keep their jobs. All of Dan's friends have been pooched-screwed by him. Katz only has to golf with him till Dan is gone later this year. You DC's and even the US better watch out when Dan looses the primary.. if you've talked about Dan, you could be gone. He is a vindictive butt head, ask Ron and Baird. Dan's leadership has run BCSO into the ground.

Worked with the guy way back when. He was Blouskey's little puppet back then, and would do what ever Blouskey told him to do. These guys were both jokes as narcs and could have got somebody killed! Now the guys an Undersheriff. What idiot made that selection, they clearly did not look into his back ground as no reasonable person would condone the crazy shit he was doing. I think he was almost fired once. He still is Russ's little pet to this day. Oh,,, buy the way, he's not very loyal unless your Russ.

You need to give Dan credit, he's not a Berry puppet! Dan is his own man and will not let Berry bully him around!

Good for you Dan!

Sheriff Houston, the mayor does not have the authority to keep you out of ABQ if you bring the COPS Show. I guess he does not understand that you are the highest ranking LE officer in the city! The citizens of ABQ support you! Stay the course.

Well, so much for being his own man! Looks like he's a Berry puppet after all! Berry probably told Houston he would take his Tahoe away with all the tricked out lights. What a whimp, backing down to Berry!
