BRANDON "BUTTERBALL" JOHNSON Sources inside LRPD report that LRPD Officer Brandon "Butterball" Johnson has been relieved from duty pending an internal investigation. Officer "Butterball" Johnson pulled over a suspected drunk driver last night and the female driver told "Butterball" that she could not go to jail for DWI and that she would do anything to keep from being arrested. Officer "Butterball" Johnson agreed to let the female perform oral sex on him in exchange for letting her slide on the DWI offense. We were told that IAD investigators  secured the uniform Officer "Butterball" Johnson was wearing last night and the sex act is reported to have been captured on the MVR in Johnson's patrol unit. Johnson was featured in an episode of our YouTube series, Little Rock Police Gone Wild.  LRPD would not respond to our requests for confirmation of Johnson's suspension. Stay tuned for updates.  ***

POORE'S CONCERN FOR COMMUNITY IS A FARCE - HE IS NOT A REGISTERED VOTER IN THE COUNTY Records on file with the Arkansas Secretary of State and the Pulaski County Clerk reveal that the appointed superintendent of the Little Rock School District never moved his voter registration to Pulaski County from Benton County when he was hired by Arkansas Department of Education Director Johnny Key. Poore's hiring was announced in April 2016 and he started on July 1, 2016. Poore purchased a home in Little Rock on December 18, 2017. Where he lived in the city prior to that is unknown. Perhaps he stayed in a hotel during the week and went back to Bentonville on the weekends as he still owns a home there. Poore was all over TV and at a couple of board meeting encouraging Little Rock voters to pass a millage increase to benefits Little Rock schools last year. It failed miserably.  But how committed can you be to a community when you don't even bother to change your voter registration so t...

LRPD CHIEF KENTON TREMAR BUCKNER DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT TRANSPARENCY Back in June 16th,  LRPD Officer Evan Keith Howell was suspended for pointing a BB gun at a citizen (terroristic threatening) when he responded to a call. "HEY, CAN YOU TELL A DIFFERENCE NOW?" - ROGUE LRPD OFFICER EVAN KEITH HOWELL After an internal investigation was conducted, a criminal case file was submitted to the Pulaski County Prosecuting Attorney for review. The matter was made public on July 9th, and we made a Freedom of Information request.  LRPD responded our request twenty-two days later on July 31st.  Responding to our request twenty-two days later is a violation of the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act. The AFOIA requires a response withing three days. That delay was addressed in the second lawsuit our publisher filed against Chief "NegroPapi" Buckner and that delay caused Judge Mackie Pierce to issue this statement to Buckner at the end of the hearing: Moving on to this mo...

An attorney for two men who were shot by police in Park Plaza mall's parking deck in late 2011 has asked a federal judge to allow a trial over the shooting to proceed next month as scheduled. Last month, attorneys for the city and the mall asked U.S. District Judge Billy Roy Wilson to grant summary judgment to them and dismiss the case. They argued that the plaintiffs' excessive-force allegations against officer Christopher Johannes, who was working as off-duty security for the mall, are unsupported by the facts. CHRISTOPHER JOHANNES - ONE OF MANY WHITE OFFICERS THAT REFUSE TO LIVE IN LITTLE ROCK DUE TO CRIME AND SCHOOLS But attorney Willard Proctor Jr., who represents the two men who were wounded by Johannes' bullets and another who was with them but escaped injury, insisted in a written response that there are factual disputes about the shooting that must be decided by a jury. WILLARD PROCTOR "At best, when he fired his gun, he only knew that a white female ...

ARE PLANS UNDER WAY TO FIRE "NEGROPAPI" AND REPLACE HIM WITH FULK? If the rumors from our city hall and LRPD sources are correct, changes are coming quickly in leadership at LRPD. It's no secret that the publisher of this blog has long pointed out problems with the leadership, or lack thereof, of befouled chief Kenton Tremar Buckner, a/k/a "NegroPapi". "NegroPapi" from day one questioned the need for the Little Rock Black Police Officers Association ("LRBPOA"), even though records obtained via a FOI request show that he belongs to several law enforcement organizations specifically for folks of color . "NegroPapi" has ignored and refused to investigate complaints made by the LRBPOA which has landed him in court after black officers sued him and the city. We have covered the previous complaint made by the LRBPOA in this post . The latest dis of the LRBOA by a predominantly white force and administration is detailed in a letter dated A...
