Philadelphia Police Inferno Affairs

Things are heating up in Internal Affairs.  It has been reported for years about the goings on in the unit that is supposed to oversee the Philadelphia Police Department.

It has been reported that there will be a major shake-up within “Inept Affairs”.  Inept Affairs has always had a reputation for protecting bad cops, and retaliating against whistleblowers who make their job more difficult.

Unfortunately for the good cops who work there, they have often been transferred and end up being disciplined for not going along with the official “conclusion”, or story that Internal Affairs higher-ups designate for each case.  If the officer doesn’t want to go with the “official” story, then he or she will have pay the price.

Bad cops in Philadelphia know there is little chance of being bought to justice by Internal Affairs.  They have enjoyed solitude and silence from the Bureau.  The cases of Thomas Liciardello and his crew, Jeffrey Cudjik Cujdik Fired-Not Charged and his crew, Harold Lloyd and his crew, Christopher Hulmes Hulmes Arrested Jeopardizes Numerous Narcotics Cases and Raymond Murphy is proof of this.

The cases of Liciardello, Cudjik and Lloyd, in which IA had received many complaints about their misdeeds, and basically failed to take action.  In the matter of the latter, Lloyd did receive a suspension for the LIHEAP theft.   Christopher Hulmes was only prosecuted many years after his crime of perjury, after a whistleblower bought his criminal conduct to the attention of the mainstream media.  Internal Affairs Knew About Allegations Against Narcotics Cops

Liciardello and his five co-defendant were acquitted by Federal Jury.  Cudjik was reinstated to the Police Department by an arbitrator as was Liciardello and four of his co-defendants.  Perry Betts, the sixth, was fired again because, according to sources, failed the drug test to be re-hired by the department.  Acquitted Cop To Be Fired Again

As of this writing, despite compelling evidence against Raymond Murphy, he has yet to be charged with theft of services for the money he stole from PECO.  Unlike Aisha Perry at her private residence, Murphy had a device on his meter.  Also unlike Aisha Perry, who has maintained her innocence and provided her PECO bills as evidence, Murphy had single digit bills, while Perry had higher than normal bills.

What is the difference?  This is proof Inept Affairs protect the crooked and persecute whistleblowers.  Perry had been known to report misconduct.

Hulmes walked away from felonies with an ARD.Disgrace in Philadelphia; Lying Cop Gets ARD The District Attorney’s Office continued to call an admitted liar, who lied in front of a sitting Judge in open court, even though they knew he was a liar.  One brave ADA, AJ Thomson, who stood up, was fired.  His then superior, was Jackie McCauley, who was married to a Narcotics Officer, Joseph McCauley.  DA Reports Lying Cop

Murphy and Lloyd haven’t been prosecuted, despite Lloyd’s guilty plea on his disciplinary charges.  Murphy continues to work as if nothing happened.  It should be noted that the ADA in the Hulmes case and Doug DiEmido case had the same prosecutor, Terri Domsky, as Aisha Perry.  The contrasts in the outcomes of the cases are startling.  DiEmedio was subsequently charged in a multi-million dollar insurance scam.  DiEmedio was given probation in the PECO theft, in which PECO had him on film stealing electricity.  DiEmedio Arrested Again For Insurance Scam

Officer Edward Sawicki was immediately charged for having an argument off-duty that allegedly had a racial component to it.Cop Charged with Terrorist Threats  One has to wonder why?

Cops get into off-duty arguments everyday and even if he did call someone a name,  should he be arrested for it?  Adding insult to injury, it was just decided last week, he would not be retried.  Resident Racist John Pawlowski wasn’t prosecuted, and shouldn’t have been either, but he should have been fired.  But Sawicki was charged and fired.  A Common Pleas jury acquitted the officer earlier this year.  Cop Acquitted

Fredric McQuiggan, the webmaster of the racist and alleged defunct website,Injunction-Read Lawsuit Here “Domelights.com”, was never disciplined for allegedly using city computers on city time to mediate his forum of intolerance.  Racist Police Website Shut Down

Vincent Testa, who recently committed suicide one day before he was allegedly to be arrested and in which Officer Anthony Magsam was arrested, enjoyed the protection of IA.  Once again, whistleblowers, who went outside the department, bought these two alleged crimes to light.  But Leonard Logan and Andrew Little paid a steep price.  They have filed a whistleblower lawsuit.  Top Cops Punish Whistleblowers

The irony in the Testa case is the boldness in which he used his rank to intimidate anyone who even thought about reporting the stolen gun parts that Magsam had taken, and was later found in his home after a search warrant was issued.  Magsam was subsequently charged, despite IA’s refusal to charge him.Cop Arrested For Gun Parts Theft

It took years.  And during the investigation, even after Testa embarrassed the Police Department, he was merely kicked out of the Firearms Unit and put in  a district.  He was only put in DPR after six years, when his arrest was imminent.  Testa took the easy way out, he killed himself.  Testa Commits Suicide

One has to wonder what Sawicki did to deserve such treatment for an off-duty argument.  At least his life will not be further interrupted and he can return to his job.  Maybe Sawicki should have started a “love” affair with the amorous city prosecutors.

Under the previous administrations of John Norris, Steve Johnson and Pat Fox, it had long be rumored bad cops were taken care of.  Norris and Fox it was rumored, actually went out of their way to get cops they disliked, while Johnson was called “Nero”, because he did nothing to stop it. From most sources, Johnson was a genuine nice guy.  Maybe too nice.

Rumor has it that toward the end of Johnson’s reign at the helm of IA, the facade began to disintegrate.  Johnson began to see what was going on around him and the last days at IA was uncomfortable.  Allegedly, Fox had an all out war with Denise Turpin.  Turpin was constantly being disrespected by Mark Everitt, who, as only a Captain, allegedly decided he could disrespect Turpin because she didn’t count.  It was reported that Johnson, who told Turpin he would not remove Everitt from her command, lost the battle.  Sources in IA has reported their opinion is that Everitt is a racist and it is alleged he has a long history of being confrontational with minority officers.  Under that guise, it is apparent why he experienced difficulty working under Turpin and wanted to get away.

Shortly thereafter;  Fox moved Everitt to another squad, even after Johnson promised the move wouldn’t occur.  Johnson was reportedly furious, but failed to stop the move.  Ouch!

Therefore; Laverne Vann should understand how George Fuchs felt comfortable enough to become confrontational with her.  If a subordinate, as in the case of Everitt and Turpin, could blatantly disrespect a superior officer, understandably, peer-to-peer, all bets are off.  Professionalism is out the window.  White male ego supersede common sense and professionalism.

It was a big story when now Lieutenant Nashid Akil was promoted in the media.  Controversial Cop Gets Promotion.  Where was the media story when Charlie Green, who was disciplined after several cops in the Vice Unit stole thousands of dollars from the city and was disciplined, not charged, and ordered the repay the stolen money to the city from their pension plans.  Green was transferred to Internal Affairs after his misdeed and then promoted to Captain.  There was no mainstream media coverage.

What is amazing about Patricia Giorgio-Fox, she sat in judgment of cops and never worked the streets and knew nothing about policing, according to many sources.  Yet she was never stopped.

Now working as Chief of Cheltenham Township, John Norris

Rumor has it there will be a major shake-up in Inept Affairs.  It’s long overdue.

Admitted Liar Christopher Hulmes Gets A Deal

Admitted perjurer former Officer Christopher Hulmes has been the sweetheart deal of the century.  Since when does the District Attorney’s Officer offer the first time offender program to people charged with felonies?  And when is a first time offender still a first time offender, even though Hulmes was arrested for DUI earlier in the year.  This is outrageous.

As a result of his arrest, hundreds of cases are in jeopardy of being tossed.  Lying Cop Could Void Arrests  This guy denied being a liar to the end.  Hulmes Insists he was truthfulHulmes, who admitted in open court to a sitting judge, that he falsified paperwork, continued working on the street for many months after the transgression.  This case, which resulted in another black eye for the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office after Philadelphia City Paper did a series that exposed the facts the DA’s office continually called the cop to testify, after knowing he was a liar.  Furthermore, the Police Department failed to remove him from the street.  Cop admitted to Lying in Open Court

Even after this Officer embarrassed the District Attorney’s Office DA’s Black Eye over One Lying Cop and the Police Department, the DA’s office took the “unusual” step of giving this liar a sweetheart deal.

This officer was only arrested after the expose’ of the City Paper.  Officer Arrested After City Paper Investigation  It was rumored that many other officers reported this cop to other law enforcement agencies for years, regarding this matter, to no avail.  It was finally taken to the media.

An honest former ADA, AJ Thomson, was terminated because he was suddenly producing substandard work after refusing to put this lying cop on the stand and questioning the reasoning behind the DA’s office continuing to call him to testify.  DA vs Lying Cop  Thomson really did battle with his then supervisor, ADA Jackie McCauley, who also happened to be married to a Narcotics Officer, Joseph McCauley,  who was friends with Hulmes.  Many have asserted that Hulmes was very confident, almost cocky about the outcome of this criminal case.

The problem is this officer, like many others who have been similarly situated, allegedly has had multiple affairs with various ADA’s.  One has to wonder if this is why this guy gets the break of the century.  Especially considering he has been arrested multiple times in the last year.  Isn’t it the “first time” offenders program?  Unless DUI’s don’t count.

This is the same ADA, Terri Domsky, who has prosecuted many other white cops, including former Officer Doug DiEmedio, among other, who all got sweetheart deals.  One has to wonder why?  What is the commonality?  Prosecutors protect corrupt cops  Once again, it comes back to double standards.  This entire situation should be investigated.

This goes back to the theft by Lieutenant Raymond Murphy, from PECO who continues to work and have not been charged.   Double Standards.  In the Murphy case, there is compelling and overwhelming evidence that Murphy committed a crime.  Everyone else involved in the scheme, has been arrested in the suburbs.Philadelphia Man Arrested In Bucks County For Stealing Electricity in 5 Counties  The same with theft of LIHEAP funds by Lieutenant Harold K. Lloyd.  City and State Workers Arrested for LIHEAP TheftsThe DA arrests 18 public servants, but surgically removes the police who were involved.  This is outrageous.

This entire incident reeks to high heaven.  This is an outrage.  Defense attorney’s all over the city should be inquiring about first time offender programs for their clients who are facing felonies. Lying Cop Gets Sweetheart Deal

FRANK FINA RESIGNS

Separated at birth.  Frank Fina and twin Stanley Livingston 

It has been rumored that Frank Fina, the racist, sexist, homophobic email sending prosecutor in the Philadelphia District Attorney’s office, has resigned.

Seth Williams, who probably couldn’t be elected dog catcher in Philadelphia, has yet to publicly announce the resignation.

Fina the Freak, as he is often referred to, is one of the three who left the Attorney General’s office and came to the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office.

Fina is in the middle of “Porngate”.  It has long been questioned as to why Fina didn’t resign and the light must have finally turned on for the racist, sexist Prosecutor.  Why Doesn’t Fina Quit?

Williams, who has been under pressure to fire the three prosecutors has steadfastly refused to do so, and finally announced he did give the prosectors “sensitivity” training.  It seems that the entire crew who came from the Attorney General’s office, including one Claude Thompson, whom Williams recently appointed Chief County Detective for the District Attorney’s Office, was problematic.  Claude Thompson Promotion

Someone needs to tell this guy, that if you stop a car in Philadelphia, you must comply with documenting that car stop.  Ol Claude probably didn’t appreciate Chief Inspector Joseph Sullivan making him look foolish.  This guy deserved a promotion in the District Attorney’s Office though.

But then again, this is the same District Attorney’s office who continually called an admitted perjurer, Philadelphia Police Officer Christopher Hulmes, to testify.  Lying Cop Arrested for Perjury.  Hulmes is on trial currently after finally being charged.

The entire District Attorney’s Office is experiencing a high level of tension and morale is definitely affected.  Another female prosecutor, Laurie Malone, was demoted after allegedly recommending that John “Johnny Doc” Doughtery, the Local 98 leader, be arrested after he allegedly threw a punch at a non-union electrician.   Deputy DA Demoted After Recommending Charges

Malone is now overseeing criminal complaints.  A similar fate was received by former ADA AJ Thomson, whom also found himself on the wrong side of the DA’s brass when he refused to allow a lying cop to continue to testify in criminal cases.  Thomson was subsequently terminated.  Allegedly because his w  ork suddenly became sub-standard.  DA speaks out against lying cop

At least Fina, the race baiting, homophobic email sending, sexist pig, cannot exert his bias form of justice upon anyone else.  Public Servant Misbehaving On the Public’s Dime

UPDATE:  Williams wishes Fina “the best”.Fina Resigns

Double Standards: DA’s Edition

In today’s segment of Double Standards, we will examine how the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office often contributes to the Double Standard phenomenon. When it comes to retaliation and retribution against whistleblowers, the District Attorney’s office is part of the problem.

Assistant District Attorney’s and police officers, much like nurses and police officers, often engage in relationships.  Most of the time, not lasting relationships, but nonetheless, relationships.

Many cops who are always in court, can attest to just how many ADA’s have been “smashed”(sexual relationship) by cops.  This becomes an issue when the cops doing the “smashing” are engaging in corrupt behavior both on the street, and sometimes in court, and the “smashee”, is either handling the case, or gets a “heads-up” of impending trouble for the officer, and the lines get blurred.  Because of this, prosecutors often protect bad cops.  Prosecutors Protect Bad Cops

Cops who are engaged in misconduct on duty, have little to worry about from the ADA’s as a result.  The District Attorney’s Office maintains a list of officers who are not allowed to testify in court because of perjury allegations.  Many of these officers, are not terminated, but are simply, not permitted to testify.  Nicholas Schneider, now a Police Lieutenant, is one such officer.  Former Police Officer Christopher Hulmes, is another.

Ex-Police Officer Hulmes was arrested many years after the District Attorney’s office was well aware that he perjured himself in court.  Hulmes admitted he was a liar in open court, in front of the Judge and the Assistant District Attorney in 2011.  The prosecutor reported the liar, however; Internal Affairs did not sustain the job.  Hulmes continued to testify in court and remained unleashed on the citizens of Philadelphia.Admitted Liar In Open Court

There was no consequence for Hulmes until four years later, after many whistleblowers, after discovering that Internal Affairs refused to take any action, reported him to both the Department of Justice and the Attorney General’s Office. Hulmes was romantically involved with an assistant district attorney.

One brave ADA, A.J. Thomson, who opened a file and discovered the lying cop, was astonished that he was still being called to testify.  When Thomson  reported it to his superiors, one then-Assistant Chief District Attorney,  Jackie McCauley, who was married to a Narcotics Officer, Joseph McCauley, who was once partnered with Chris Hulmes, fell on deaf ears.

According to the now defunct City Paper, “Thomson says that he later insisted that Hulmes be taken off the street, and that( Assistant District Attorney) Flores and Jackie McCauley laughed. Clark’s case was postponed and then reassigned to another prosecutor.”

In July 2007, former ADA Kelly Surrick reported that Hulmes perjured himself on a case they she handled.  Surrick reported to Internal Affairs that Hulmes admitted to her that he lied because he tried to protect a source.  In that case, Hulmes lied about the locations of where a gun was located during an arrest.

The paper went on to state that “Internal Affairs did not sustain the allegations because it was Surrick’s word against Hulmes’ — and other officers backed Hulmes’ account. They returned Hulmes and Officer Mark Bates, who claimed to have discovered the gun in the alley, to the street.”  Officer Bates has not been charged.

In January 2012, Common Pleas Court Judge James Murray, rebuked the District Attorney’s Office when he discovered Hulmes transgresstions.

“You cannot put an officer on the witness stand who is going to say, ‘I lied to an issuing magistrate [who signs off on search warrants],'” “You cannot do that.”, screamed the Judge from the bench.  DA Keeps Calling Liar Cop To Testify

None of the other officers involved were disciplined.  Hulmes was finally charged with perjury and is awaiting trial. Cop Arrested for Perjury Prior to being charged, the Police Department finally, after many years and many reports later, took Hulmes and Officer Patrick Banning off the street.  Banning has not been charged.  Hulmes was charged with perjury and numerous counts of falsification of records and false swearing.  Hulmes Docket Sheet

Thomson was later fired from the District Attorney’s Office.  It seems Narcotics Strike Force Officer Joseph McCauley’s wife, then Assistant Chief Jackie McCauley, didn’t think it was so funny after all.  A spokesperson for the District Attorney’s Office claims Thomson was fired for “substandard” work.  Thomson provided an earlier relatively good evaluation to the City Paper reporter.

Jackie McCauley fought hard to prevent defense attorney Guy Sciolla from having access to Chris Hulmes records.  Sciolla was finally successful and Hulmes was charged with perjury.Lying Cop Charged With Perjury

Thomson left the District Attorney’s Office with his moral compass in tact.  Thomson says he was a victim of the “stop snitching culture.”  Thomson filed a complaint to the State Supreme Court against his former employer.  Former Prosecutor File Complaint Against DA for Continuing to Call Lying Cop

Former-Assistant District Attorney Jackie McCauley probably isn’t laughing anymore.  Rumor has it there is a grand jury investigation into her actions.  Rumor also has it that since she has left the District Attorney’s office, she too, is involved with another ADA, and is no longer with McCauley.   There is a very contentious relationship between the two former spouses because of Jackie McCauley’s new relationship with Assistant District Attorney Lou Tumolo.  Because Tumolo handles Narcotics jobs, there is little wonder why Joseph McCauley is so upset over the relationship.

Gwendolyn Cudjik,  Deborah Naish, Elizabeth Kotchian, Kirsten Heine, Jackie McCauley and Jennifer Mitrick are Assistant District Attorney’s who it is well known have relationships (the first two are married) with cops.    Seth Williams did adopt a fraternization policy, but it is common knowledge that Hulmes had more than one Assistant District Attorney.  DAs must disclose Sexual Relationships

No one can legislate the behavior of whores, however; when it impacts the successful prosecution of corrupt cops, it must be addressed.  There has been over 1,000 jobs dismissed because of the recently acquitted six Narcotics cops, and another 500 cases are in jeopardy because of Hulmes.

ADA’s, or “All Day and All Night” as they are often referred to in the Police Department, must be held accountable because of the caustic and corrosive effect it has on the criminal justice system, when they refuse to disclose misconduct that is well known to them.

And worst yet, when they fail to disclose this information to defense attorney’s and continue to call these cops as witnesses.  That is a blatant violation of the Brady rule.Violation of Brady Rule
