SENATE BILL SEEKS TO LIMIT POWERS OF ABC ENFORCEMENT AGENTS

A bill sponsored by State Senator Scott Flippo (R-Bull Shoals) will prohibit ABC Enforcement Agents from enforcing rules against gambling devices in permitted businesses.

STATE SENATOR SCOTT FLIPPO (R-BULL SHOALS) GIVES THE ABC THE STINK EYE

We posted a story on February 2nd (CLICK TO VIEW POST ) about ABC Enforcement agents going after kids at two NW Arkansas family centered businesses for exchanging tickets for candy or prizes.

Many state legislators have complained about ABC Enforcement Agents issuing citations to business in their districts.

Some of those businesses target by the ABC were VFW Posts. One particular VFW Post is frequented by ABC Board member Mickey Powell.

We have also reported that we were contacted by several of these same legislators in regard to information we have obtained about tainted ABC Enforcement Director Boyce Hamlet.

This gives more credence to the rumors circulating that Hamlet is on his last days as ABC Enforcement Director.

It is important to note that Filppo is a Republican. Hamlet has really stepped in it this time and can't play the retard card in this instance like he did when he was fired by the Arkansas State Police.

The Arkansas Times had this to say about the proposed legislation:

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
