It was never like this in years pasted. APD has becaome a political corrupt dept. Politics control the day to day operations. The pasted union members have even sold out, Lawerence Torres case in point. He used to be on the side of the troops, then he became corrupt, selling his soul for the dollar. He now is in a job where Marty pays him way more than he is worth. He makes about 80,000. a year and all this with a high school education, even though his job description requires a degree. He is now one on Marty's minions. So much for APD. He never even went to the Academy because he did not pass the background. Marty and Bakas lateraled them all in just for numbers.

APD will not change for the better with marty in charge, no matter who is the chief. this is one of the many reasons why myself and others have left the department. I do not know chief Schultz personally and quit apd before he came on, but i have heard all of the horror stories from friends and i am glad i left. so far the county leadership seems to back its officers and has less political issues to deal with, so officers can just do their jobs. Sheriff White is a real leader; strict, but fair, firm in his beliefs, to do the right thing for the community we serve. after all isn't that why we get into law enforcement, to protect and serve our community. keeping our family, friends, and community safe ? Please let all of us ( this especially means out of touch leaders and the cops abusing the authority bestowed upon us ) Remember we are here to protect and serve our community, not ourselves. like in the military: Duty, Honor, Courage, Respect: to do what is right for our country, state, city, community, one another, and ourselves. We are public servants hear to serve the community , not our city leaders or ourselves. So please stop the fighting amongst the ranks, it is only making us all look bad! What has happened to the days when people would go up to a cop and ask for directions, about our jobs, or just say thanks?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-11697967225187958982007-07-17T19:51:00.000-06:002007-07-17T19:51:00.000-06:00What Shultz and Marty don't seem to realize is tha...What Shultz and Marty don't seem to realize is that if they are not right with their employees, their employees will have no loyalty to them or the job. No loyalty to the management or the job means that EVERY SINGLE TIME any of the rank and file gets screwed, it reflects back on the city in the form of lawsuits, bad reputations, and lack of votes in the next election, or the amount of signatures raised by recall efforts. Wouldn't it just be easier to make things right for the employees? Look at companies that do things like give their employees perks, daycare, telecommuting, free cafeterias, gyms etc...people that work in places like that stay forever. There is pride in their job. Marty keeps saying that he is such a progressive mayor and he's done so much for the city. Does he not realize that one of the biggest employers in the city IS the city? That's alot of voters when you consider families and friends of the employees.

It now seems that everyone is in it for their own personal gain. No one seems to care about the troops anymore. Have they forgotten that when morale is down productivity goes down? The troops are the backbone of the organization and every effort should be made to improve their work environment and pay. It's a job that very few are now willing to take on, hence the recruiting problem. Also, the large amounts of officers leaving before they even hit their 20 years. This is a major clue, you have a problem that needs to be addressed!! <BR/><BR/>Sgt Guillette is a highly respected supervisor and served our country. Every effort should be made to place him back in his former position, they have done it for others. Treat others as you would like to be treated. The Chief and his staff should really look at this!<BR/><BR/>I think your rank and file and union must get with the APD admin and work to get pay and morale up!!!!!!
