PD SOS TO DOJ

As per the JAA Blog, Broward PD Howard Finklestein has sent a letter to the Department of Justice accusing the Broward SAO and BSO of engaging in obstruction of justice for their failure to investigate several law enforcement officers who apparently obtained controlled substances (steroids) by fraud.

The Broward PD drops a dime to the feds on the Broward SAO and Sheriffs Office.
And you wonder why we call it "Browierd".

The letter is here.

The news article is here.

The JAA Blog coverage is here.

And just because it's Friday here's a video of the Phillie Phanatic going down in the line of duty. Have a great weekend.

The Captain Reports:

North of the Border very sad news .....

I don't know how many of you know ASA Joel Silvershein in Broward, but very sad news to report. Joel's 16 year old son, Andrew, a sophomore at Western High School, who was attending camp in Georgia, died while on a whitewater rafting trip on Sunday.

How long until bottom feeder low life criminal defense attorneys claim that they don't care because Joel works for the Broward SAO.

Hate the Phillies. In fact hate Phillies, Flyers, and Eagles.

But I love the Phanatic. He kicks the Chicken's ass. And Billy the Marlin just looks like a big grinning goofball comparatively.

Every ocean needs a bottom feeder, the system falls apart without someone doing the dirty work.

Not everyone has the balls to be a bottom feeder. They often call those people career prosecutors.

And by the way, I saw the article in the Herald on Thursday. I remarked that it was a shame. We dont wish ASAs families come to harm. It is ASAs who have no sympathy for anyone, that we wish could be in someone else's shoes for once, and understand not everything is true because a cop wrote it in a police report.
