At a time when public faith in the justice system is wavering
....If you're not furious that over a quarter of the police force is blacklisted and that the police chief called officers deemed "untrustworthy" by the DA "all good men and women" on 10/1/19 at the city council - you should be.
On 1/31/17, three years ago, District Attorney Marian Ryan and the Medford Police lost in a court of law because they tried to shut down my blog by making wild accusations that were untrue. A pure abuse of power.
This writer has compiled a pattern of abuses by the Medford Police - often doing the bidding of former Mayor McGlynn. ANY citizen can be unjustly accused if you dare try to bring information to the public via public records requests or Open Meeting Law complaints, which I have done for years.
They targeted me.
And they can target you.
My friend Johnny tells me that the blog is "required reading" for officers of the Medford Police Department. It's the one place you can get what Johnny calls "the unvarnished truth."
Read up on the Brady List, the Brady Letters, the Blacklist and fully understand what went down behind your back! You, the people who pay these heavy salaries. https://thecrimereport.org/2019/09/04/should-prosecutors-expand-publicize-brady-lists/
Prosecutors around the U.S. keep lists of police officers deemed not trustworthy as witnesses. They often are called do-not-call or Brady lists, a reference to the Supreme Court’s 1963 Brady v. Maryland ruling that prosecutors must turn over to the defense any evidence that might exonerate defendants. These lists have shot into the public eye amid debate over when officers might be added and whether the lists should be made public, the Christian Science Monitor reports. Critics, often police unions, have referred to them by a weightier name: blacklists. At a time when public faith in the justice system is wavering, some jurisdictions are considering expanding and publicizing Brady lists to restore that faith. That has raised a crucial concern: balancing the push for greater accountability with due process and potential reputational harm to the officer.
