We would like to recognize retired Senior Sergeant Paul Heh for walking the talk when it comes to demanding action and accountability. Sergeant Heh recently hand delivered this letter to the New Mexico Attorney General's office and sent copies to the other agencies requesting that there be an investigation into the Tasergate matter involving former APD chief Raymond Schultz.
If you have nothing to hide, the Mr. Schultz should welcome this as an opportunity to show that all was on the up and up when he negotiated the Taser-cam contract. But like we know from the explosive testimony in the Torres trial, very little is on the up and up when Mr. Schultz has had his fingers in the mix. The following are important questions that need to be asked regarding this $1.9 Million contract:
1. When did Mr. Schultz first start talking with Taser about it?
2. What did CAO Rob Perry know about this contract and when did he know it?
3. What position does Mayor Berry hold on the matter?
4. Should all city employees be allowed to personally benefit from their interaction with city merchants, vendors, and contractors?
Thank you Sergeant Heh.

Not to worry, Gary King will get to the bottom of this.
Right after he gets done running for last place as the Dem candidate for Gov and he takes care of that puzzling year old case at the NMLEA by putting Ray's replacement in the slammer for fraud upon the citizens.
This is if he can crawl out from hiding under his desk first....
The response, if any, from all four will be as follows:
Dear Mr. Heh:
Thank you for your letter. Your complaint will be referred to the appropriate parties within our office to determine what action or investigation, if any, will be taken by this office. This office will be in contact with you should we proceed with any investigation. Our office appreciate correspondence from concerned citizens such as yourself but can only act on cases within our legal authority and based on confirmed information. Thank you for your inquiry.
Sincerely yours,"
Nice try Paul but do not hold your breath. You waisted your time. Both Gary King and Hector Balderas are running for other office and will be gone come January 1. Yarbough is also leaving the US Attorneys Office and the new US Attorney will not act unless the FBI turns a case over to him and will not act on a citizens complaint. Kari Brandenburg will declare a conflict and no action will be taken.
Yarbough is NOT the US Attorney but is First Assistant and is leaving according to sources. The new US Attorney is Damon Martinez and will never go near a citizen complaint.
Paul Heh lost the election and got 3% of the vote. Berry cleaned house in the lowest voter turn out since 1977 and won with 69% of the vote and the Eye had no impact on Berry's popularity. The general public could care less about APD and the City, while the rank and file just try to survive. Berry, Perry and the 5th floor think this blog is a joke without any credibility with only about 75 readers who like to talk shit about each other. The "tremendous regulator" sounds like a babbling, bitter, pus filled idiot off his meds yet the Eye keeps publishing his irrelevant comments. "Just saying" seems to be a popular posting from a number of posters who probably did not even vote. Just saying.
This is exactly what this guy deserves. An investigation that leads to charges, lost employment and further charges, indictments and jail time. He needs to know what he has put people through. Let's all hope the right agencies move on charges against Schultz. It looks like they are going to have to do something now. It is all spelled out for them now and they have a complainant.
1033...ironic timing because that's what you are, a 33r. And if this site is so rarely visited why are you here? If SHItHEADS like Berry and Perry think it's a joke then why bother posting? If it's so meaningless why don't you put your name to it? We all know ur the kneepad wearing water bottle carrying wannabe. Good for Sgt Heh, and this is a full call out to Hector Balderas, you wanna be AG? Well step up and take on the biggest criminal known as Ray Schultz because you know he's violated at least half a dozen statutes.
10:33 hit the nail on the head with the real facts.......sad as they are.
@ March 11, 2014 at 10:33:00
I would have to disagree with you in that Berry, Perry and the 5th floor think the "EYE" is a joke. They would have to dumber than a bag of hammers not to be concerned. I suspect you are one of their little gophers sent here to try to upset the apple cart.
FSB SGT = Bruce W right? You always sound so angry dude.
APD Eden (former DPS) and NMSP Kassetas are together in DC. What could they have to talk about? And who is working the Taser vendor booth?
No "gopher" here but have plenty of "moles" on the 11th and 5th floor. Retired with nothing but complete contempt for Berry and Perry and how they have destroyed APD and the City for their own personal, financial gain. People, especially 34s, need to do more than just complain. The Eye at times scores a few points but not enough to do any real damage to Berry's popularity. 11th floor sources say Perry does read they Eye but laughs about, shrugs it off, and not worrying at all knowing full well they are in complete charge for another 4 years. DOJ is the only major thing Perry is worried about, but how much longer is DOJ going to take? Perry is also worried about having to testify in the Han case, that why French was hired. Now Perry has Eden to lead around by the nose. Sadly, there is nothing City employees can do about it but take it. Perry is the most vulnerable link and Berry is clueless. People need to post substantive information on the Eye and not petty, vulgar comments talking shit about each other or psycho babble that makes no sense. Try it. Eventually the press has to start taking notice of what is going on and report it.
@3/11 10:33pm
Shooting the messenger tactic shows how desperate your administration is. Talk to anyone on the street. Everybody is disgusted with the corruption in this city and state. Not one person is in support of this leadership, neither Berry nor Martinez. They are in fear and feel hopeless on having any rights. Martinez runs this state like a skanky lawyer. That may have worked for her as a lawyer but it will fail in running this state. It’s just a matter of time and perseverance by people like Paul Heh and the Eye.
And if you think that the incompetent and corrupt leadership by Berry and Martinez is so great, wait until you see that Tesla didn’t choose NM. All Ian Musk needs to do is call Richard Branson. He’ll tell him how corrupt Martinez is and that she tried to screw him and reneg on their deal. He had to threaten her with closing the Space Port down before she realized that she’d better bow to him rather than treat him with disdain like she treats the citizens of NM. And he’ll see that none of his employees will want to move to NM because it’s crime ridden, corrupt and not the place to raise children.
So before you pathetically attempt to shoot the messenger again, stop indulging in drugs and alcohol so you can clear your mind and try looking in the mirror, keeping your eyes open this time so you can see how disgusting you look to everybody else.
Hey pussy, I mean “anonymous” on March 11 at 10:33pm. Have the balls to put your name on your comment like Paul did. BTW, it’s couldn’t care less, not could care less. You must have had a NM education. The stats for this website prove that it has more unique viewers and is more relevant that you think and is growing daily.
@10:33
Do a google search on Albuquerque corruption if you think that no one is paying attention to this site. Its high ranking in the search speaks for itself and Google search is objective evidence. Take a look at who else is reporting on the corruption. It’s starting to look like an Albuquerque Spring just beginning to blossom.

However, I would like to say thanks for the opportunity to point out how relevant the EYE is! Now go back to Berry and the other slimy creatures and tell him that creating propaganda on this site won’t work. We’re not as dumb as you think we are.
2:07,
Retired.... Ahhhhahahaha... Couldn't handle it anymore?
Maybe everyone should be just like you and sit around the house picking their backside and complaining. You are a gopher. The information found here is doing a lot of damage to their plans. You crybabies who think doing your little 20 years and retiring is an accomplishment kill me. There are places and departments in this world where you have to do 30 or 40 years for a full pension. What do you know? You have moles?!?! Go see a doctor then.
If you can not decipher what someone is saying, maybe you haven't reached a level of comprehension necessary. You bitch cry and complain in every post you put here about the Regulator and what is being said even when there is no regulator posts. Are your feelings hurt? Was one of your nerves hit? What are you adding to things here? Tears? Juvenile tit for tat bullshit? Give everyone a break. 800 cops and your dumb ass and what you have her are the ones who at least will say SOMETHING at most file complaints and fight these scum like Heh is doing.
And since your mole is so close to that bigmouth coward punk Perry, tell your mole to say I said hi and that maybe next time he and his walrus can pick a fight with a few guys in their 30's instead of two guys 15 years older than them. I personally wouldn't be proud of knowing anyone on the 11th or 5th floors. But that's you. You are the crabby whining complaining old bitch crying about what bothers you and what people say. Maybe you should find a group of old ladies and a bridge game to occupy your time and mouth.
"People need to post substantive information on the Eye and not petty, vulgar comments talking shit about each other or psycho babble that makes no sense."
You need to follow your own advice above.
And I don't know where you have had your head stuck, but the press gets a whole hell of a lot of information, leads, and stories from the Eye.
I believe the inappropriate relations between the Journal editor's brother Jerry and city officials was spoken about here in detail. That's pretty substantial information that your mole probably didn't know.
I do know that if I was a lawyer who represented an officer in a very high profile civil rights case (The Ellis Case) and the paper paper backs this officer, but wrecks others, when my brother is the Editor there is something fishy. Something is very fishy when a previous police chief only releases information to a paper who is run by this guy's family member.
But you will still cry about the regulator because at some point you resembled that. That is understood.
You are eternally butthurt and your mangina is ruptured. That is ok. It happens. Some day you will get over it like a few of these actors do from their jail cells.
Bitter puss filled babble and rant over.
You are still a sissy.
Hey gopher,
March 12, 2014,at 4:24:00 is my post.
Didn't want there to be any mix ups on your part mister mole man.
Imagine when the feds finally hold the union,the brass, and other SID personnel for conspiring to obstruct justice. You will see this blog played a role.
@March 12, 2014 at 2:07:00
Most, but not all, are AFRAID to speak up, its when people are angry enough and it overrides their fear that they will join in..
TR: You are far too relevant to post anything under "Anonymous"! Put on your cape and come back openly to the Crusade!
I would also assert that no one has the right to criticize Paul Heh in any way, shape or form under the identity of "Anonymous". This man always puts his name to his comments and that registers his balls bigger than Albuquerque, unlike the 99.9%of posters on here (your's truly shamefully included) who hide as "Anonymous".
There is a lot of bitching, moaning and accusations of wrong-doing, etc, posted by members of APD against members of APD. Considering the level of participation and seemingly acceptance of corruption and criminal activity in New Mexico and particularly in Albuquerque, it would seem that the awareness of the information submitted on this blog would lead to more intelligent, active and angry involvment with the real problems existing here. But everything seems to revert to two catagories: "Somebody should do something!" or 6th grade level sniping at each other within APD (Angerdriven Pathetic Droolers).
Use of an alias like "Tremendous Regulator" so you can show bravado, talk smack and babble on is really pathetic. Exactly what information "tremendous regulator" have you ever really found out or revealed on this blog that has been damaging to Berry and Perry? And posting at 3:43 pm, noticed you did not give your name and also posted as "anonymous". Just saying.
I hear that Eden is so clueless, that there is a memo floating around some APD departments asking the worker bees what they would do if they were Chief. Really??? I sure hope you're not falling for this one folks, if the guy doesn't have any good ideas of his own it is obvious he has been using others to get where he is today.
The writing is on the wall that someone will be falling on a sword, make sure your not doing it for them.
You don't even know where the name tremendous regulator came from, you class a bitch. The whole thing went right over your air head because you are just one of those worthless check collectors that did the bare minimum to get by to steal your pension, while perpetrating a fraud on the citizens, all the while not giving a living shit about the collapse around you because it didn't concern your little candy ass. I know all about guys like you. You are the overwhelming majority polluting the ranks of law enforcement these days. Got your pension? Good. I will bet you bought out your last year just to get out faster you fraud. If I dropped you on the streets of a real city you would shit your pants. Would you like me to post my name, DOB, and social security number? How about my address while I am at it? All while you cry daily here "anonymously". It's not like you will do anything with the 49. A pussy like you would complain, probably send anonymous letters and sign me up for magazine subscriptions, because that is what cowards like you do. I can count on one hand how many people here impress me without using up all my fingers. I definitely damaged something because your hiney is really hurting. So you are probably one of the assclowns who's feelings I must have hurt. Would you like a tissue? But hey, you are out. All nice and retired. Life is good. Right? Go back to being the nobody you always were. People don't even know you exist.
Oh, yes.... I posted at 3:43pm. How observant of you. I wrote that post to you while sitting in the Satellite Coffee at Alameda and Corrales drinking a double expresso with a little lemon. It was good, and I laughed a little while writing you. I wish you were there. It would have been fun. I am there often. I like their scones too. You should try them. They are better than pop tarts. Anytime you feel randy enough to come out from under your anonymous rock, you know where I'll be.
Too Da Lou.........
Since I think so highly of my smack and babble talking self, I think I will start spelling my name in all capitals starting after this post.
I write as a concerned citizen, who follows these posts closely. I also have compassion for our officers, who are doing their job right and protecting our citizens in accordance with the law and duties they have sworn to uphold. However, I agree fully that there is corruption, violation of citizen's civil rights and the list goes on. As a victim, and first hand observer, I have taken my concerns to the DOJ and have written letters to the Senate Oversight Committee of the DOJ, requesting a full Sentate inquiry into the delays with the DOJ investigation. The issues in ALB have reached a crisis. We do need to speak up, and outline our facts and concerns in order for change to occur. Otherwise, those of us who do speak out, are the minority. I delayed coming forward with my information for years, out of continued fear of retaliation. However, there needs to be a way that all officers can collectively, with citizens document their information, and be protected. Eye, any suggestions?
I failed to add that in my letter to the Senate Committee, I included a direct link to the Eye, as well as information regarding recent events. I realize the process is slow, but it's become obvious we must go beyond our local and state agencies. The DOJ investigation must be expanded and current for real change to occur.
Although, there may be doubters on contacting the Senate oversight committee, it is an option. I encourage every person with information to send letters, do the DOJ investigation is current and relevant, not just based on events of the past. Thank you.

I apologize for all the posts, but this was the closing of the letter I sent to the Investigative committee:
"Someone needs to step in and protect our citizens. I call your attention to the web site http://eyeonalbuquerque.blogspot.com/?m=1, which blogs incidence of abuse of power. Fortunately and obviously, many of the bloggers are current anonymous APD officers, who have found a method to share the atrocities they face each day, who are also begging for the DOJ to step forward. There are honorable men and women within the APD trying to fulfil their duties, despite the corruption all the way up to the mayor’s office. They are begging for help, as much as the citizens of the cities."
The TR once posted a lengthly legal definition of "racketeering". He hit the nail on the head. The trolls came out in full force trying to discredit him.
And posting anonmously in ABQ's culture of retaliation is a sign of wisdom, not cowardice.
To 4:24 or Gopher,
You know i don' t think the paper never backed that officer, ever since 2010 when the paper and Jeff Procter, filed a freedom of imformation act. To pull out information on cops lives. I remember that article.
This is to all the cops that come on here to bitch and talk about others, and I get that you are feeling the pressure from the administration, but have any of ever you thought that if you ever get into a shooting that these families that are all coming together and using the courts, to go after all cops. And you have other cops testifying in court on other cops. Wait till one of you shoot a crook and their family and money hungry lawyers run you all over. And dont think that you are immune. Epecially with this Judge Bacon, who is costing all of us tax payers millions for these frivilous lawsuits.
Any institutional environment which embraces and is a playground for people like Dodi Comacho, Mac Page, Will "photo pervert" Roseman, Eric Garcia, Mike Miller, Eric Jordan, Bonnie Montoya, Ray Schultz, Karen Fisher, Karen Salazar, etc. etc. etc. is BY DEFINITION a cess pool. Only in an environment as jacked up as that is somebody like Paul Heh criticized for doing the RIGHT THING!
Good for you Paul!

Fat boy TJ knows what this means.
But he'll deny it. So does Peaches.
Just a little insurance.
You all better damn well hope these locks are never open.
You have no idea who you are dealing with in Darren White. Sleep well my friends.
I smell federal racketeering and Rico indictments coming down. Sources are telling me a certain federal agency is looking hard at a certain newspaper and it's connection to city officials and information laundering. A few of the guilty might want to fall on the sword to protect the hands that fed them.
I heard they found out White's little secret too and how everyone is connected down the chain. The drop phones, secret gmail accounts, mail drops and other electronic means of communication these novices thought that nobody knew about. I would not want to be them over the next year.
With these types of charges, homes and autos get seized and bank accounts and financial records get taken. Oh yea, you go away to federal prison for a long time. I would not want to be a lawyer charged with these things. In that case you lose everything.
Eric Jordan was involved in a case when he was an officer where a Wallet with money was stolen from a suspect. He didn't lie once about knowing who took the wallet. He lied multiple times while another officer was wrongfully accused of taking it. There was an IA. He eventually cracked under the pressure during the investigation and confessed. There was no criminal charges and no firing for untruth fullness. As a matter of fact, he was taken care of, and it went nowhere. Now look where he is. And he is a lieutenant. This is just another prime example of how perverted APD is. You almost can't believe it. Isn't it funny that a police department can be run by liars who accuse everyone around them of being liars when things don't go their way. Hypocrisy must be a prerequisite to the promotional process and definitely one for acceptance into the inner circle of the command staff.

1) You had me cracking up when you wrote, “The Tremendously Tremendous Regulator now with more Tremendousness said...”
I’m still laughing. Thanks for the entertainment!
2) I’ll take this as a complement, but you didn’t write the 3:43pm post. I did.
And I remain anonymous for good reason. But “gopher” aka March 11, 2014 at 10:33:00 PM MDT should reveal himself since he’s attacking Paul who is brave enough to stand up to this corruption. That’s why 10:33 is nothing more than a pussy. If you have any balls, reveal yourself, otherwise your comment has only permitted us to further the truth about this corrupt government, which we do appreciate. BTW, using lingo like "just saying" clearly reveals the community you hang out with.
@11:01. Community Policing at its best. The Eye can't have it both ways, officers being investigated for shootings and violating peoples civil rights - the Eye defends them but on the other hand wants the DOJ to do something about it? And if you have such a big following, where were all of you when Heh ran for Mayor? His big huge balls didn't do a lick of good did they?
Love, Concerned citizen
Did not know that about Jordan, can't say I'm surprised. He's been nothing but a closet boy his whole career and actually gives the word pussy a bad name. A man who shakes hands like a dead fish cannot be trusted. That goes way higher than Jordan come to think of it, buncha pussies. I knew I had seen Jordan before, he was that curly haired kid on Bad Santa, always in need of a haircut with that 70's fro goin.
Yea, he's the 34 that stole it. I will get the IA number and post it here. The Feds should know how hypocritical this place is with people like this speaking at the POC and in positions pontificating about HOW THINGS SHOULD BE.
The Feds should know and the citizens this guy bullshits every day should know.
Is Scott Lopez related to Jordan?
@1156 tell us all what they mean
TJ used his desk computer in RTCC to look up the owner of the Eye and other political rivals on the clock all the time, especially during the election. Yes I told the DoJ but I'm not the one who got him on tape doing it.
probably Siamese twins separated at birth.
Necessary evil, why is it that the Eye is the decider of right and wrong? If it's against the law it is wrong. Just because it's not against the law doesn't make it right either. I don't know where you get off thinking that everyone hates our local police, what most citizens want is truth and honesty which we have not seen in a very long time. Nothing the Eye has reported has produced any results, you think that blogging is contributing to the resolution of any of it? No, my point is, at least Heh ran for office but he had no support from his own agency. People can complain and blog all day long and having big balls qualifies you for what? Either support your own or shut the hell up!
What does "support your own" mean? I've been a 34 for a long time and when I hear that it usually means cover up. Am I wrong 11:21?
The only way change will occur is that all factual information be reported outside of ALB, in hopes change will occur. I also believe the blog site is helpful, and 'bloggers' need an outlet to vent their frustrations, discuss the issues and hope someone is listening. Sadly, our vested officers cannot speak openly, out of fear of retaliation. Who is to judge? Sgt Heh can speak publicly because he is no longer with APD. I appreciate Eye's venue. Free speech. And, I hope someone will take the lead in providing an opportunity for all information to be forwarded, and have necessary protection for those that do speak up.
Great idea! The New York Times is hereby invited to have a look-see at what's going on here. Why no accountability for corrupt public officials? How come the DOJ came to town months ago and the only thing we hear from them is the sound of crickets?
Come on NYT. Inquiring minds want to know who stands up for justice.
The Knapp Commission was formed in 1970 when Frank Serpico and David Durk went to the New York Times over the widespread corruption corruption that was plaguing the NYPD at a time when nobody else would listen, just like here. God Bless every one of those individuals. They changed law enforcement for the better. Maybe it will take a few gritty east coast grunts with bark on their trees a lot harder than these cowards have to again effect some change for the good and smash these criminals within our PD and city government into paste.
Viva la policia!

A supervisor.@library got the same treatment . stole city property for years built his house with it used co workers to help him and he gets promoted to the balloon museum . no justice for Brown nosed insiders .a clerical worker was fired for allegedly stealing books . Heads up to whoever is in charge of investigations : The admins at the library have unfettered access to expensive brand new book donations . They are rumored to be selling them on Ebay . Thoo
usands of new books everyday are being stolen downtown ...just sayin!
Thick heads never prevail, having a venting venue is good, it use to be at APOA meetings. I remember trashing the chief and DC's but not anymore. It will get your fired, targeted for discipline and retaliated against. Those of you who keep calling out anonymous posters ironically are doing so anonymously. Sure Heh can put his name out because the Eye protects him and others from negative posts. You do not post comments that don't fit your agenda, so bloggers get frustrated with the this venue as well. You control the flow of things, when bloggers try to defend someone or something that the Eye has targeted, you do not post those comments so it makes it seem that all your bloggers agree with you when in reality it's not that way at all. It's ok if not everyone agrees with the Eye, that lends credibility to the site but lately the censorship has gone off the charts. It's a shame that this venue is dwindling too, when it use to be a site to learn about corruption, now it's a site to insult, demean, use profanity, disrespect citizens who really wanted to know the truth.
Right. Not. Nothing I've posted has been censored. Nice try.
@3-16, 11:35pm: You are funny! You are also phony! Here's a free helpful hint: go to Home Depot or Lowe's and buy a plunger (used for unclogging drains and toilets). Cut the diameter of the rubber part down until it just covers your ear. Push-pull, push-pull until no more shit comes out of your nostrils or your other ear. Take two aspirins and call me in the morning. I am listed in the yellow pages under "Dr Fix-it; No Cranial Constipation Too Challenging!"
11:35,
No citizens are being disrespected here. Only APD brassholes and the criminals running the city are being disrespected. Get it strait. I
Won't tell you what it is about your comment that gave you away, but you made it obvious that you are one of the shitheads and you are posting your bullshit to sway opinion and attempt to discredit this site. It is not going to work. Everyone knows how much damaging information has been revealed here. This site will always be a very hot topic and place to come to hear the truth about corruption in Albuquerque. Now go pet a puppy.
