ABC ENFORCEMENT DIRECTOR FEELING PRESSURE


Tainted ABC Enforcement Director Boyce Hamlet has been under pressure for quite some time due to the discovery and exposure of his hidden past and lack of qualifications for the position he was appointed to by Governor Hutchinson.


Hamlet, racked with fear and uncertainty about his continued career in law enforcement after his 15 year period of lying about his employment history to hide his hiring and firing from the Arkansas State Police to obtain jobs he had no chance of getting if he actually told the truth was uncovered, had to do something to keep the approval of Governor Hutchinson.

Hence this email to his minions.

No doubt Hamlet wanted to claim credit for "an innovative program" that he could email his boss and the Governor's Office a series of "pat me on the back" emails.

The most innovative program that could be developed for the ABC is how they can get rid of Hamlet.

We have a feeling he won't be around too much longer. It's hard to keep a position that you have no qualifications whatsoever to hold, even a political appointee. 

Word is that with the passage of the Medical Marijuana Act and the ABC's involvement in the regulation of outlets, the Hutchinson Administration is looking at finding a new position for Hamlet and appointing someone that is actually qualified as ABC Enforcement Director.

It is possible that the pending Illegal Exaction suit against Hamlet has prompted the search for a new Enforcement Director.

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

Pulaski County Department headed by State Senator Fred Love is in trouble.

By Russ Racop On July 31st we broke the story that there was an internal investigation afoot at the Pulaski County office of Community Services.   A recipient of Section 8 HVC vouchers contacted us on that same day for assistance and we began our investigation.   Her landlord contacted her and told her she had three days to get out of her apartment because she had fraudulently obtained assistance.    The landlord had been contacted by Love's staff before she had. She didn't understand what was going on because she just moved into the apartment and had been vetted and approved for assistance by Love's department. It's not the first time someone has reached out to us about Fred Love and that county department.  Love also serves in the state legislature as a Senator. We have received allegations and some records about sexual and workplace harassment, malfeasance and misuse of county resources involving Love. We immediately called the number listed on that rent payment noti
