City Director Lance Hines tells a citizen to fuck off

Ward 5 City Director Lance Hines Russ Racop August 4, 2020 Back in July, an email exchange was sent to us that caught our attention. Hines replied and basically told Bernard to fuck off. Hines' statement about the $5.5 million a year to youths and community programs spurred us to make a FOI request about that bankroll to youths and community programs. You can view the spreadsheet the city sent in response to our request by clicking here . Very little of that $5.5 million is or was actually spent on prevention, intervention, mentoring and treatment programs. Salaries for city employees and staff along with expenses such as travel and conventions took up a large chunk of that pork. Other expenditures were made for tobacco education and supplies, crisis intervention t-shirts,  the radio station at the West Central Community Center that Doris Wright thinks is her private property, playground equipment, Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, LR Racial and Cultural Diversity Commission, citywide ...

Jordan Ruff - Riding shotgun with Myers Ruff has been with LRPD for over a year but has yet to change his voter registration from Fayetteville to Little Rock. Ruff does has a vehicle assessed here in Pulaski County. James Ruff is not Jordan's husband, it's his father. Myers was the cop that was tasked to stay by the killer cop Charles Starks side (suicide watch) after he murdered Bradley Blackshire in February 2019.   Apparently Myers uses alcoholic beverages as a form of self-medication to relieve anxiety and stress.   80% of all white LRPD cops like Myers refuse to live in Lit...

LRPD is staffed by drunks and mentally ill individuals - Episode 2: Billy Brackins

LRPD cop Billy "Fibster" Brackins Russ Racop July 20, 2020 This sorry excuse for a cop came to our attention back in 2018, when he was piss-on-yourself-drunk at Midtown Billiards with another LRPD miscreant cop Spencer Mitchell. LRPD cop Spencer Mitchell This is a video we posted about the incident back in 2018. Listen to the 911 call Brackins made. Fibster Brackins lied multiple times about what actually happened that night at Midtown starting when fellow cops responded and he told them he saw Parker snorting drugs in the men's room at Midtown. Then he claims it was a white guy he saw using drugs in the Midtown men's room. His different versions of what happened should have been enough of a reason to be fired for untruthfulness.  Instead he only caught 176 hours of suspension. It appears from the IAD investigation and witness statements that Brackins was really attempting to buy cocaine for his own use. Why would LRPD want to keep him employed? To avoid paying a sett...
