TRAVEL EXPENSE RECORDS REVEALS HYPOCRISY OF POLICE CHIEF KENTON TREMAR BUCKNER AND HIS FONDNESS FOR PRINGLES & HAAGEN DAZS - $14K SPENT ON LEADERSHIP LESSONS FUELS DEMAND FOR HIS AND CITY MANAGER BRUCE MOORE'S REMOVAL

PRINGLES & HAAGEN DAZS ARE BUCKNER'S TRAVEL COMFORT FOODS

Befouled LRPD Chief Kenton Tremar Buckner has racked up a whopping $43k in travel expenditures since he was hired in 2014 by City Manager Bruce Moore over the objections of many long time LRPD officers and concerned citizens.

The records reveal that Buckner often travels with overweight luggage and often does not obtain receipts for checking in his luggage or for taxi rides, instead providing a memo in which he provides an excuse for his lack of obtaining a receipt - he usually blames the taxi or shuttle driver. It's never his fault.











The records also show that he often has a late night snack in his room and with an alcoholic beverage.  He also appears to be fond of Pringles and Haagen Dazs ice cream.





Buckner attended a course at Harvard at the cost of over $14k to the citizens of Little Rock. The course was on Executive Leadership.



Surely Bruce Moore justified the questionable hiring of Buckner back in 2014 by finding he was already "leader", enough of one to head the Little Rock Police Department.  Why then was he sent to this school to learn how to be a leader?

CITY MANAGER BRUCE MOORE TOUTED BUCKNER'S EXPERTISE IN A 2015 ARTICLE

This is what Buckner had to say about his own abilities.



More than likely Buckner took the course to fluff up his resume so he would appear more attractive to his next employer. 

Hard to see how the curriculum would benefit the city or citizens of Little Rock.




What a foolish waste of public funds. But Moore is used to doing that.

Apparently Buckner uses the rank of General in addition to his title of chief.





 


And his attendance at a Mayor's Conference is just as questionable. While certainly not as extravagant and costly as the Harvard class, there no mention on the program of Buckner being a speaker and he is not a mayor.

 
Another shocking find was that Buckner, who has long questioned the need for the Little Rock Black Police Officer's Association ("BPOA"), has used our money to maintain memberships and attend conferences for the  National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives ("NOBLE") and the National Forum for Black Public Administrators ("NFBPA"). 

This is an example of why the BPOA, and most of Little Rock's citizens,  have little trust or respect for the hypocritical, befouled police chief.
  
Coming up, we will have more posts that detail additional reasons for the removal of Chief Buckner and his toady,  home-wrecking City Manager Bruce Moore.

  A video of a part-time Dover, AR city marshal threatening a local business that went viral on social media, resulted in his termination of employment on October 1st.   Here's the video. Apparently Jones was the subject of rumors in the town. Rumors about meth pipes and the 479 Smoke Shop.   According to records obtained from the Arkansas Commission on Law Enforcement Standards & Training ("CLEST"), Jones previously worked part-time for the Dover Marshal's Office from October 26, 2007 through January 2, 2009.   Jones was also elected in 2023 as the Martin Township Constable and held that position under he lost to Ricky "Perch" Parks in 2025.   Don't worry about Jones losing his part-time job. As his campaign literature detailed, he owns a couple of businesses in area. During our investigation of Jones for this story, we found that he had been accused of exploiting Daniel L. Koester, 64 years old, who had cancer and had been in hospice after sufferin...

LRSD investigation file of Kendahl Davenport's entanglement with student leaves more questions than answers

An "unprofessional" relationship between a Parkview student, Justin Lanier and a teacher Kendahl Davenport was the talk of the town this week  ________ We were contacted by a LRSD employee/whistleblower over the weekend and broke this story on April 13, 2026 at 7:43 a.m. Other media outlets saw our post and scrambled to catch up. Our post about this on social media and other news outlet regurgitating it sent LRSD into a tailspin and the superintendent issued a statement. LRSD attempted to spin the story with little success. We submitted AFOIA requests to LRSD for copies of personnel files and records regarding applicants for the position that Davenport was hired to fill. Other news outlets continued to post stories. And they specifically referenced our April 13th social media post that broke the story and indicated that it going viral was problematic for the school district. Unrelenting pressure on LRSD from news media and citizens forced the superintendent to issue another s...
