HAMLET CREATES HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT FOR EMPLOYEES


HAMLET SAYS HE WILL SEND "SHIT-O-GRAM'S" IF NECESSARY (see email in story)


Emails that the ABC did not want us to obtain indicate that ABC Enforcement director Boyce Hamlet has created a hostile work environment for employees under his supervision.  Hamlet has berated, belittled and used unprofessional language that any reasonable person would consider intimidating, hostile and abusive.

The ABC was sent a Freedom of Information request on June 3, 2015 for emails of Hamlet.  They have yet to fully comply and provide all the emails requested. However, the ones they have provided so far provide quite a picture of a dysfunctional government agency.

In one email Hamlet remarks to Bud Roberts, director of Alcoholic Beverage Control Administration that once of his employees, Seletia Powell, "rambles" in an email that complains of political favortism in the ABC administration.


In another email Hamlet makes disparaging and unsubstantiated comments about his administrative assistant Milinda Brown. He engages in unprofessional communication about one employee he supervises to another employee he supervises.


Hamlet called agent Bill Kruse and chewed him out about some reports.


J.C Ryder had a retort about Kruse's response to getting chewed out.


******

The Governor and the DFA Director need to get rid of Hamlet before this agency falls apart. Having someone like Hamlet with a questionable character, documented lack of integrity and honesty attempting to run a law enforcement agency is a recipe for failure.

Bryant High School teacher accused of sexual misconduct with a student

The Bryant Police Department confirms an on-going investigation of a now former Bryant teacher, Heather Danielle (Hall) Hare. Hare (age 32) has been accused of sexual contact with a student.  Hare was featured on ABC Good Morning America in May 2020 when a course she taught was discontinued during the pandemic. At this point no details of the alleged illegal conduct have been released. Earlier today the school district posted this on a Bryant Schools Facebook page. According to on-line school board records, Hare submitted her resignation effective April 1, 2023.     Hare is married and is a resident of Conway, AR. KATV featured the Hare family in another story on October 31, 2022. Stay tuned for updates.

ASP Trooper Jacob Haynie caught on his own mobile video recordings using the N-word

On November 21, 2023, after one of those questionable PIT maneuvers (the ASP now calls  Precision Immobilization Technique , or PIT maneuvers, Tactical Vehicle Intervention or TVI) ASP rookie trooper and former Hope Arkansas cop Jacob Haynie was caught on his and other ASP mobile video recordings using profanity and the N-word.   ASP policy prohibits the behavior and words Trooper Haynie uttered. That same policy also prohibits actions and behaviors that reflect unfavorably on the ASP. Haynie's wife works at the Hempstead County Assessors office. Wonder if she uses that language at work too?  ### The full videos can be viewed on many of the YouTube Channels that feature ASP videos.  A follower of one channel identifies Haynie as the one uttering the words. Apparently that individual knows Haynie and might have worked with him at Hope PD. ASP claims no one said the words "climb" or "N***a" and the trooper using the fowl language was actually Tyler Gentry. Ri

Three LRPD cops "relieved of duty" over incident at Club Trois

Sources at LRPD have confirmed a tip we received that three LRPD cops, Brad Stewart, Lee Pitts and Justin Sims have been "relieved of duty" in connection with an incident at Club Trois. The story we were told is that Stewart was working off-duty at Club Trois and dealt with an inebriated female club patron by soaking her with pepper spray.  LRPD General Order  ("G.O.") 303 requires that a cop that uses physical force, non-lethal control and compliance devices, on or off-duty, follow certain procedures. Use of pepper spray is a Level 4 event. Here are the specific procedures. LRPD sources tell us that they are trained to call MEMS after they use pepper spray or a taser on an individual. They are to file an incident report and they file an officer's report or letter form (5600-2) with their immediate supervisor for each use of force incident. Here's an example of an officer letter form.   Not a single procedure was followed in this incident. And to make matter
