Newly sworn-in Philadelphia District Attorney, Larry Krasner, has started the new year with a BANG! Dozens of Assistant District Attorney’s were sent packing with dozens of others shaking in their boots!
Krasner, who took over the 534 employee department on January 2, provided no official comment on the terminations. See the partial leaked list below:
E. Marc Costanzo
Pat Blessington
Trial Division Chief John Delaney, Jr.
Pre-Trial Unit Chief Michael Barry
Chief of the Diversion Courts Unit Derek Riker
Chief of Family Violence & Sexual Assault James Carpenter
Gun Violence Task Force Chief Carolien Keating-McGlynn
We all remember Costanzo and Blessington from the Porngate scandal. The “pitbull” Marc Gilson states he was “shocked”. Many of the others allegedly had dubious convictions and/or misconduct allegations.
Mark Gilson – Bye-Bye
According to triblive.com, “Some of those let go, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss their termination, said they were told Friday morning to come to the office as soon as possible. When they arrived, they said, they were escorted by the office’s detectives as they learned their fate – often without explanation – and cleaned out their desks. Several left in tears.
Andrew Notaristefano, a homicide prosecutor and district attorney’s office employee for more than a decade, said he had a homicide trial scheduled to start Monday – and that he’d met with the victim’s family Thursday night to prepare. He was at his desk working Friday when a human resources employee took him aside and told him he was fired, he said.
Notaristefano, who secured dozens of murder convictions during his career, said he was given “no explanation.” He requested to leave after prosecuting his upcoming trial but was told no, he said. His request to speak to Krasner was also denied, he said.
“I’ve worked very hard and sacrificed a lot to make this city a safer place and to help people,” said Notaristefano, part of the team of prosecutors that unsuccessfully sought the death penalty last fall in a retrial for a decades-old murder.
Michael Barry, deputy of the pretrial division, confirmed that he was asked to resign, with his last day next Friday. James Carpenter, chief of the Family Violence and Sexual Assault Unit for the past six years, said he would also leave that day.
Derek Riker, chief of the Diversion Courts Unit for the last five years, said he was shocked to be let go because “I consider myself one of the progressive people in the office,” responsible for cases that involve alternative treatment and programs instead of incarceration – the types of ideals Krasner campaigned to expand.
Gwenn Cujdik, a homicide prosecutor, asked what would happen if she didn’t resign as requested. She said she was told she would be fired on Monday.
“A lot of us stayed because we were willing to stay and willing to work for (Krasner) and continue to do what we do,” Cujdik said.”
Uh……Yeah. It is not unusual for the incoming District Attorney to make staffing changes. Ed Rendell, former District Attorney, Mayor and Governor states he dismissed about 25 percent of staff when he first took office.
Here we go again. Captain Joseph Bologna, the same Joseph Bologna, is set to be promoted when the promotions happen in the upcoming week. This double standard is particularly disturbing because Bologna squeezed through the door of not being assigned to DPR with his entire squad while he was a Sergeant in Narcotics.
That’s right. All of his employees, who were under investigation for five years, Officer Jeffrey Cudjik, Richard Cudjik, Thomas Tolstoy and Robert McDonnell were accused of all kinds of criminal activity and departmental violations, all who were pulled off the streets, EXCEPT, one then-Sergeant Joseph Bologna. Bologna also had a guest role in the Philadelphia Daily News Pulitzer Prize winning series “Tainted Justice”. Tainted Justice Wins Pulitzer Prize It was touted as a story about “the renegade Narcotics cops and the snitch who snitched on them.”
The feds eventually declined to prosecute the officers. Shortly thereafter, the District Attorney’s Office declined to prosecute stating they didn’t “want to duplicate” the effort. All the officers were eventually disiplined, including Bologna, who received a three-day suspension. Narcotics Cops Including Supervisor Suspended-One Fired
Officer Jeffrey Cudjik was eventually fired and has since been returned to his job. Cudjik Reinstated
Bradley Bridge, of the Public Defender’s office stated at the time he was “surprised” they weren’t charged in light of the overwhelming evidence against the motley crew. But their supervisor, Sergeant Joseph Bologna was never even taken off the streets. Bologna, did, however; down the road, receive admonishment for “failure to supervise”.
The Philadelphia Daily News reported “In a move unrelated to the federal investigation, Capt. Joseph Bologna was found by the department to have failed to properly supervise Richard Cujdik because he was present when Cujdik searched the car, the sources said.”Narcotics Cops Won’t Be Prosecuted.
Last time we checked, Officer ChristopherHulmes was finally fired and charged for lying on a warrant. Price Of Lying Narcotics Cop But it was only after a long battle with Hulmes being reported by an honest ADA, AJ Thomson, who eventually lost his job. DA Reports Lying Narcotics Cop
Sergeant Joseph Bologna was present as his cops guzzled hoagies and Little Debbie’s snacks while raiding the store. According to the Daily News, “Then Sgt. Bologna looks up and waves his finger toward the ceiling: “Whaddya got, cameras over there? . . . Where are they hooked up to?” And then, the wires were cut. The complainants of at least 8 other stores says that was that squads modus operandi. The complainant in this case, had a back-up hard drive that captured the officers illegal actions. The complainant said $10,000 was missing that wasn’t put on property receipts and cartons of cigarettes were also missing. Video Here
According to the Philadelphia Daily News, “After the series ran, dozens of lawsuits were filed, and 55 criminal cases were challenged by defense lawyers who questioned the officers’ credibility. In all, the city settled 33 lawsuits and paid settlements totaling $1.7 million.” Lawsuit and Tossed Cases
Joe Bologna, who worked with FOP President John McNesby when he was a police officer assigned to the 24th District, has been spared and rewarded many times during his career. However; nothing could save him from the embarrassment the department received from the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, who refused to allow Bologna to attend. POW! SHOTS FIRED.
Bologna, who was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, without a worry in the world, while his entire unit was sitting in DPR for alleged high crimes and misdemeanors, while Bologna continued to climb the ranks, with not a care in the world. Once more, Bologna was promoted to the rank of Captain, only two days before the civil service promotional list for the rank of Captain was going to expire. Once again, no problems for BOLOGNA. The next day, the new civil service list for Captain was published and Joe Bologna was very last on the list. But no problem for Joey. He was promoted on the old civil service list.
Now, Bologna is set to be promoted to Staff Inspector and he is allegedly bragging about his new assignment, but supposedly, it’s a secret. Many are betting he won’t be assigned to the duties of other Staff Inspector’s and won’t be confronted about his past in Narcotics, nor his ability to get a clearance to get into the FBI Academy.
Maybe the FBI wanted nothing to do with a guy who is present while his cops are lying on search warrants, cutting wires when he suspects he is being recorded, and his squad costs the city millions in lawsuits and at least 33 narcotics cases thrown out. Yet his employer only charges him with “failure to supervise” while allowing him to continually ascend the rank. The FBI politely declined to his appointment to the FBI Academy. We agree.
On the same note, Lieutenant Javier Rodriguez, a past recipient of “Double Standards” is also set to be promoted to the rank of Captain. Many are curious if he too, will be confronted about his unceremonious boot from the Narcotics Unit, with Corporal Reinaldo Peluzzo, after the two was given formal disciplinary action because of their misdeeds involving theft. They both were booted from the Narcotics Unit.
Rodriguez was also assigned to the 24th District with Bologna and McNesby during the same era, as well as resident thief, Lieutenant Raymond Murphy. Murphy was the only one who wasn’t charged with stealing electricity after a ring of thieves were arrested in Bucks County. PECO Thieves The same 24th District where resident racist Corporal Robert Pawlowski is currently assigned. Police Officer Suspended for Making Racial Slurs At FOP
Many are betting odds that Murphy didn’t even attempt to take the Captain’s test. Lieutenant Murphy is watching the clock tick and paying restitution to PECO. Lieutenant Nicholas Schneider had no problem getting promoted to Lieutenant from Sergeant even though he allegedly falsified and Daily Attendance Record by carrying him as going to Municipal Police Officers training for almost 10 days, when the training was only 3 days. Schneider also allegedly isn’t allowed to testify in court because of a lack of integrity. Yet, he was still promoted. His promotion was actually held up by a few days, but he was still promoted.
Apparently it pays to have worked with McNesby because each of these police officers committed serious infractions and alleged criminal acts and yet they continue to ascend through the ranks of the Philadelphia Police Department.
Too bad resident woman slapper Lieutenant Jonathan Josey wasn’t assigned to the 24th District. But hell, he did get a fund-raiser and a solid from District Attorney Seth Williams, who only charged him with the slap, as opposed to false arrest and a litany of other charges that would have been more difficult for a Judge to toss out. But Josey still hasn’t been promoted. And Josey is probably feeling pretty angry since the Police Department, rightfully so, has fought his promotion every inch of the way. No Promotion For Cop Who Slapped Woman
In the interim, others who are on the civil service promotional list, are being interrogated and in at least one instance, having to deal with the humiliation of a flyer being posted around the district questioning his ability to be a supervisor. Yet there isn’t an investigation of this dubious flyer. It’s being passed around like some of the ADA’s at a FOP night at Lodge 5 Headquarters.
There also isn’t an investigation into how some people tend to get promoted, in spite of an obvious lack of integrity and in Bologna’s instance, a “failure to supervise” charge. That’s a pretty serious charge for someone who is now going to supervise even more people.
Double Standards should have no room in the Philadelphia Police Department. Cops who constantly misbehave and continually to move up in the ranks is disturbing. Inspector Carl Holmes, who committed pretty bad acts, under his own admission, was still demoted. Captain Joe Bologna received no such action. Apparently the more you act up, allegedly break laws and outright steal, you have little or nothing to worry about when it comes time for a promotion.
In summary, Captain Joseph Bologna isn’t accepted at the FBI Academy, has disciplinary action for “failure to supervise”, but knows he will be getting promoted and even what he will do doing. Bologna has nothing to worry about. Oh, except for the FBI not wanting him anywhere near their grounds.
There are other officers who are brow-beat at these “interviews”, for a civil service promotion and have to endure rumors and innuendo about minor infractions or, simply rumors. But these are the very ones that get promoted, despite pretty bad records or accusations. Some cops because of their misdeeds don’t deserve to be promoted. We say that is B-O-L-O-G-N-A.
Meanwhile, the beat goes on for other officers, who have relatively minor blemishes or have no disciplinary action at all, sit and wonder if they will be promoted because of rumors, or flyers being distributed throughout the department without a whiff of an investigation as to the culprits who authored the flyer or distributed it. This certainly sends a message.
Whistleblowers and minority officers………….BEWARE. Or simply, need not apply.
Things are heating up in Internal Affairs. High ranking officials who have decided to cover up for the bad cops in the department may have a cause to worry.
Rumor has it that at least one, will have to explain to a Grand Jury. With the advent of new technology, it takes a lot more intelligent person, who is determined to cover up for bad cops to be successful.
Rumor has it the folks in Internal Affairs, both still active and retired, are shaking like strippers in Church.
The cover up for the cops who aren’t prosecuted, who should have been prosecuted, and the persecution of cops who dare to reveal the truth: your days are numbered.
In a city where the District Attorney is under investigation, the Attorney General is waiting to sentenced along with a Congressman, maybe the days of folks doing as they please are gone.
The Philadelphia Daily News reported that Officer Ian Hans Lichtermann, was snapped by a Philly resident by the name of Mindy Isser who questioned the Police Department’s Police Commissioner, Richard Ross why does one of his employees have a nazi tattoo on him. Mindy Isser says he has the words “fatherland” under the Nazi symbol. PPD Nazi Story Here Lichtermann is purportedly assigned to the 2nd District in Northeast Philadelphia.
We’ve been down this road before. But the story in the Daily News is incomplete. It fails to mention that this guy was outed by hackers as a member of Blood & Honour, a white supremacy skinhead group and declared a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. Alleged Neo-Nazi Cop Back On-Duty and Nazi Tattoo On Philly Cop Investigated
A website called One People’s Project, which has a great sub-heading, “hate has consequences”, a site that is devoted to exposing Neo-Nazi’s and other hate groups. When they discover individuals who are members of hate groups, they do background and expose them. In exposing Lichtermann One People’s Project writes “The names of a decorated Philadelphia police officer, Ian Lichterman as well as officers from New York and military personel have also reportedly been discovered. Philadelphia Police Public Affairs office told One People’s Project that the matter would have to be investigated before any statement is made on their part.”
The names of some of the officers in the past who were accused of being either involved in a hate group, or have went on racial tirades, or have racist and hate filled material in or on city property follows a pattern.
In 2008, two narcotics officer, Officer Scott Schweizer and Eric Dial were kicked out of Narcotics after two racist stickers were discovered after another officer noticed them plastered on their lockers. One sticker said “White Power” and another depicted a Pawlowski looking man, half in uniform and half as a Klansman with the epitaph “Blue By Day – White By Night”. Cops Suspended over Racist Materials at Work
Pawlowski would be Corporal Robert Pawlowski who, without fear, began throwing around the “N” word in an attempt to recruit other officers in the Fraternal Order of Police headquarters. Pawlowski received a 30 day suspension and a transfer to the 24th District. A district that reportedly has a history of racism. The same district where Schweizer and Dial was assigned after their racist activities.
But FOP President, John McNesby responded to a reporter for the Philadelphia Daily News that he’s seen the tattoo and “it’s no big deal”.
This sentiment is why the racist website, Domelights.com, which was operated by a Philadelphia Police Sergeant, (now Captain) Fred McQuiggan, without fear. Domelights was dimmed by former Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey after a lawsuit initiated by the Guardian Civic League. However; McQuiggan was never disciplined and continued to get promoted without consequence.
Maybe McNesby feels he can justify any of the many recent reports of cops engaging in racist behaviors involving symbols, speech and literature because so far none of the minority officers have challenged him. When is it enough?
This is what happens when you have cops who are involved in hate. Their arrests are tainted. This is taken by the website of a law firm who used the hate of the officers to mitigate the charges against his client. DA tries to hide info from Defense Attorney is alleged
Trial: The Ku Klux Klan Material Presented
Shortly before opening arguments, the DA asked whether I had planned on introducing any evidence of the officer’s past (without ever mentioning what that consisted of).
When told I was going to use the KKK material as impeachment evidence to show the officer’s bias towards my black client, the DA complained to the judge that it should not be admitted because she wasn’t provided notice of my plan to use it!
However, Rule 404(b) only requires the Commonwealth to file notice of intent to use prior acts evidence, and it appears the DA’s Office had previous knowledge about acts of its own officer. This lead me to ask a few questions:
Why did I have to get this information on my own?
Why didn’t the DA provide it to me?
And was the DA hoping I didn’t know about it
Too quickly, does the FOP dismiss any allegations of racism by police officers or racist acts. Corporal Pawlowski had the temerity to attempt to recruit inside FOP headquarters. He did so while the group of black officers whom he referred to as “banana eating monkeys” was only a few feet away.
A police officer, Joseph Kelly who hung a black baby doll in mock hanging in Highway Headquarters, which resulted in a lawsuit by then Police Officer Lonnie Adams. A former Police Sergeant who called former Commissioner Neal the “N” word at roll call. It doesn’t seem to be getting any better.
These kinds of cops have the ability to influence and indoctrinate new cops coming into the police department. Something has to be done.
Although this incident happened a few year ago, that tattoo is still there. It will probably be a court battle if that officer is ordered to cover that symbol of hate up while he is working, but I have faith in the public.
Six million people of Jewish descent was killed by the Nazis. Six million people were part of the “final solution” of a mad man. The mantra “Never Again” certainly applies here.
This cop cannot credibly testify in court at this point. His credibility will always be challenged because of his affiliation with a hate group as exposed by the hackers on the One People’s Project website. Just as defense attorney’s did in the Narcotics cops case.
Shout out to One People’s Project. Keep exposing the racist that live among us and insist on having job in which they are able to exert authority over people of color. Racist are always attracted to policing jobs and military jobs where they hope to oppress the people they are supposed to serve and cause nightmares for people they work with by getting promoted and moving up through the ranks so they can cause as much damage as possible to people of color.
When District Attorney Seth Williams charged Louise Williams Bishop with criminal conspiracy and accepting money in return for political influence, he said he anguished over his decision. He then provided these words, when he decided to charge Bishop with the crimes that she entered a plea of no contest. The Associated Press quoted him as saying:
“You don’t get a pass just because you are a friend, or a member of my political party, or race,” District Attorney Seth Williams said this week. “I’ve known and looked up to Rev. Bishop almost my entire life. I’ve been to her home often. My mother listened to her gospel radio show. Mrs. Bishop thought all of that would save her in the end, that I wouldn’t prosecute her. That is what she told many people. But it can’t. That’s the nature of my oath — to do my job. We had to follow the evidence.”
But, he has given himself a pass. The old adage, “Do as I say, not as I do.”
Williams also charged former State Reps. Ronald G. Waters, Vanessa Lowery Brown, Michelle Brownlee, Harold James and former Traffic Court Judge Thomasine Tynes. So far, the body count is:
• Thomasine Tynes, former President Judge of the Philadelphia Traffic Court, pleaded on Dec. 15, 2014 to conflict of interest and conspiracy charges. She was ordered to serve 11½ to 23 months in prison and pay $2,500 in prosecution costs.
• Former state Rep. Harold James pleaded on June 1, 2015, to one count of conflict of interest. He was ordered to pay $750 in restitution and $2,000 in prosecution costs, resign from office and was placed on 12 months of reporting probation.
• Former state Rep. Michelle Brownlee pleaded on June 1, 2015, to one count of conflict of interest. She was ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution and $3,500 in prosecution costs, resign from office and was placed on 18 months of reporting probation.
• Former state Rep. Ronald Waters pleaded on June 1, 2015, to nine counts of conflict of interest. He was ordered to pay $8,750 in restitution and $5,000 in prosecution costs, resign from office and was placed on 23 months of reporting probation.
Lowery-Brown is awaiting a trial date.
Williams decided they were to charged after former Attorney General Kathleen Kane decided not to charge the group because she said the sting was predicated on racism, whom she believes was at the hands of Frank Fina, a former Attorney General prosecutor and then Assistant District Attorney before he resigned in disgrace after homophobic, sexist and racist emails were released.
Williams fought diligently to keep Fina with the DA’s office, and only sent Fina to sensitivity training after a group of City Council persons insisted Fina, and two other former Attorney General Office employees, Pat Blessington and Mark Costanzo, be fired.
In light of the Johnny-come-lately financial disclosures, in which Williams disclosed his acceptance of money, jewelry and free gifts from individuals, specifically, a lawyer who tries many cases in Court, it reeks of hypocrisy.
Williams quickly made the disclosures in light of the air of investigation by the FBI. A first year law student would know these kinds of alliances are just wrong. Conflict of Interest/Red Flags Williams have been arrogant about accepting “freebies”, while holding others accountable for doing the same thing.
Could Kathleen Kane, who was convicted of perjury on Monday and is awaiting sentencing for exposing several prosecutors, (Fina being named as her arch-enemy), and two Supreme Court Justices, actually stand to see karma as far as Williams is concerned?
Kane certainly exposed the “Legion of Doom”, but she is no longer one of the “Super-Friends”.
The FBI is investigating the financial dealings of Williams according to the mainstream media. Feds Eye Seth Williams The Feds will have a lot to investigate. Maybe while they’re looking, some of the people who say morale is lower than it’s ever been in the DA’s office will reveal what they know.
Meanwhile, Williams continue to surround himself with people in similar financial hardships as himself. Williams, who once had a lien placed on his home for not paying a PGW bill, recently appointed Tariq El-Shabazz to his staff. El-Shabazz has a history of not paying his bills and have several liens and judgments against him.
El-Shabazz private practice, was recently taken to landlord tenant court for non-payment of rent.
Williams, who have yet to prosecute some cops, where there is compelling evidence they have committed crimes, as in the case of Lieutenant Raymond Murphy, and did nothing to protect Whistleblower AJ Thomson, have a lot to be concerned about.
Maybe after seeing what happened to Kathleen Kane, he will be reluctant to retaliate against those who know where the bones are buried.
Sneaky the way Williams delivered the thick packet that proves his poor decision-making skills, by dropping off the “forgotten” disclosures of goodies involving everything from a $45,000.00 free roof repair, to a $6500.00 Rolex watch, to office of the Board of Ethics. Yes, there is such thing. Unfortunately, our highest law enforcement officials seem to have a lack of them.
For some reason, Wiliams felt compelled to report staying at the Florida vacation home of the defense attorney, Richard Hoy, whom he said was a friend. I guess he must have remembered that not reporting “gifts” from “friends”, is what former Congressman Chaka Fattah charged and convicted. Fattah is scheduled to be sentenced in October.
But for all his wheeling and dealing, and disregarding his behavior which are a clear conflict of office for anyone in his position, he said, according to his attorney, Samuel C. Street, he made a mistake. “He “wasn’t paying attention,” his lawyer said. He didn’t realize he had to because he didn’t see most of them as gifts, Samuel C. Stretton said, but rather as nice things his close friends gave him.”
Sounds alot like Herbert Vederman and Fattah.
Another attorney, now a Common Court Pleas Judge, Scott DiClaudio, who gave Williams $6,000.00 in gifts that included sports tickets and $1500.00 in Visa cards, said he only did so “completely out of the friendship we have enjoyed for three decades.” Forgotten List of Questionable “Gifts”
DiClaudio has a colorful past of his own. He was not recommended by the Bar Association for the election to the bench. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, despite not being recommended by the Bar Association, U.S. Rep. Robert Brady, Chairman of the city Democratic Party, state “at the time that the party backed DiClaudio because Williams had vouched for him.”
Prior to his winning a seat on the bench, DiClaudio was admonished by the state Supreme Court for “serial misconduct” in his work as a defense attorney. The Inquirer reported that “Williams defended his friend in a statement as having “provided top-notch legal services” for many clients.”
Once again, Federman and Fattah. How did they make out with that argument?
Maybe Seth needed a vacation, because it is very hot in the kitchen. It isn’t difficult to see that the kitchen is going to get a lot hotter before all is said and done. Seth may go from the hot kitchen, into the frying pan.
This is the quote from Dr. Brian Williams of Parkland Hospital in Dallas Texas. Yes, that Parkland Hospital. The same one where President John F. Kennedy died after being assassinated on November 22, 1963.
Dr. Williams is a Trauma Surgeon. Dr. Williams tried in vain to save the lives of the five Dallas Police Officers who were killed by Micah Johnson on July 8, 2016.
Dr. Williams is a black man. Dr. Williams broke down in tears as he begged for an end to racial violence. At a news conference on Monday afternoon he declared “This killing, it has to stop”. He went to state that “black men are dying and being forgotten. People retaliating against the people that are sworn to defend us. We have to come together and end all of this.”
Dr. Williams expressed pain at the killing of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile in Louisiana and Minnesota earlier in the week. However; he was further sickened by the killings of the cops in his city. Cops he tried in vain to save.
Dr. Williams stated that he “understand the anger and the frustration and distrust of law enforcement, but they are not the problem,” his voice quivering. He believed “the problem is open discussions about the impact of race relations in this country”. Williams declared also that “black men dying at the hands of police officers affected me. I fit that demographic of individuals. But I abhor what has been done to these officers and I grieve with their families.”
Dr. Williams said he has a young daughter is is teaching her how to interact with the police. He says he often pick up the tab when he sees cops in restaurants and want his daughter to see a different purview of the police than he did.
“I want my daughter to see me interacting with police that way so she doesn’t grow up with the same burden that I carry”.
Dr. Williams advised the Dallas police to as a black man, he supports them. However; it “doesn’t mean that I do not fear you.” He further stated he would worry about his personal safety and have a “visceral reaction” and fear if he is approached by the police.
The problem is that an open dialogue about race has to happen. It cannot be hampered by whites infusing “race baiting” and the “race card” into the equation. Nor can it be hampered by blacks infusing the “victim” mentality and “all police shootings upon black men are bad shootings”.
This experience also exists within the ranks. There are double standards. It is apparent when it comes to discipline. It is apparent when a cop perceives mistreatment in a district or unit. It is apparent that black cops and black supervisors are not supported, by and large. It is apparent that when an accusation is made against a black supervisor, the FOP immediately respond to the complaints made by officers. However; when multiple complaints are made against supervisors who are a non-minority, the same service isn’t as swift.
There is less respect and more of a conspiracy, almost a “mutiny” mentality when it comes to black supervisors. Especially when they are tasked to supervise in the less than minority friendly districts.
Double standards are pervasive. And it has no place in policing. There isn’t a justification for allowing cops who have committed crimes, like Lieutenant Raymond Murphy, where there is compelling evidence to suggest that he committed a crime, to remain in his position and not be accordingly charged. Nor when you have groups of Police Officers committing other crimes and are only disciplined internally as opposed to being charged with theft of services.
Conversely, a black former police officer, Andre Boyer, who has been adamantly gathering and releasing compelling evidence to prove the theft, is now, according to Boyer’s writings, is getting attacked by the Fraternal Order of Police, or more specifically, according to Boyer, the Vice President of the FOP, John McGrody.
Boyer had been fired under dubious circumstances and is now suing the Fraternal Order of Police and it’s Vice President John McGrody, as was former Sergeant Tyrone Cook.
Meanwhile, Corporal Robert PawLOWski, makes offensive and racist comments at the FOP Lodge 5 headquarters, and are reported by other officers, there is no public rebuke of the behavior by police union.
When you have a police officer with the mentality of Corporal Robert Pawlowski, who was recruiting other officers to adopt his racist beliefs as exhibited by his racist behavior, in, of all places, the Fraternal Order of Police lodge, it has to end.Police Corporal Make Racial Slurs At FOP
Double standards when you can have a black supervisor, Sergeant Tyrone Cook, fired and loses his arbitration for being less than 15 minutes late. Double standards when you have Police Officer John Hargraves, who was charged and his charges dismissed, but he loses his arbitration. If this only involved John Hargraves, who is black, it wouldn’t raise any red flags. But there are many officers who are alleging that black cops are losing their arbitration hearings and having to wait for a much longer time than white officers.
The standard many black officers have been using is Officers Thomas Liciardello, BrianReynolds, Michael Spicer, Perry Betts, Linwood Norman, and John Speiser, who, after being acquitted of serious charges, are alleged to have received their jobs back and arbitration dates, at warp neck speed. Ironically, one of them, former Officer Perry Betts, failed the drug test, and was promptly fired again. One of Narcotics Six To Be Fired Again For Failing Drug Test
Double standards when you have Ray Evers, accused and charged with rape of a Temple student, charges were later dismissed at a Temple University frat house. It was an alleged “gang bang”. However; Evers called the encounter consensual. Sexual Assault at Temple Frat: Police Officer Evers Accused
Then DA Lynne Abraham said the victim didn’t lie, “she didn’t have enough evidence to give us.” Yet, Evers went on to be in the national spotlight by being given a police spokesman position, and was involved in a highly publicized bar fight in Avalon. Even though the video surveillance, didn’t back up his version of the events in Avalon, he was never disciplined for his less than stellar behavior according to the cops in that jurisdiction.

When Police Officer Lonnie Adams and Brian James complained, they was retaliated against and ostracized according to their lawsuit. Black Lynched Rag Doll Lawsuit
When you have cops having racist and offensive KKK related stickers on their lockers “Blue by Day, White by Night” and “White Power” and the Officers, Scott Schweizer and Eric Dial(now deceased), get suspended, but they land back in the 24th District. A district where resident racist Corporal Robert PawLOWski, also landed after his 30 day suspension. A district that is allegedly one of the most racist in the department. A district where perhaps they will feel comfortable with their overt racist actions.
Double standards when a white officer, Anthony Magsam, allegedly steals hundreds of gun parts.Anthony Magsam Resigns The white supervisor of Magsam, Lieutenant VinnieTestaLieutenant Under Investigation Found Dead (who later commits suicide on the eve of the arrest of Magsam) not only protects him, but purportedly retaliates against the black supervisor, Sergeant Andrew Little, who has a duty to report the thefts. Sergeant Little and Internal Affairs Lieutenant Leonard Logan, both filed a lawsuit regarding retaliation concerning this case.Whistle Blowers Who Report Theft Get Punished Files Suit
Simply put, this case reeks of a double standard, white supervisor protects white cops, black supervisors are punished and an attempt is made to cover up the crime. Cop Protected: Bosses Cover Up
These kinds of double standards within departments, which isn’t exclusive to Philadelphia, contributes to the distrust in police. The scandal plagued San Francisco Police Department has recently been found by a report as having “institutionalized” bias. Blue Ribbon panel find pervasive bias in SFPD This after many incidents of cops within the department sending racist and homophobic text between cops and supervisors. Institutionalized Bias Says Report
When racist website are allowed to exist, until a black police civic association sues, there is a problem. Black Police Sue Over Racist Website The white supervisor who was the “moderator” then-Sergeant Fredric McQuiggan was never disciplined. McQuiggan continually was promoted with no fan-fare. Yet a black supervisor, now Lieutenant Nashid Akil, made headlines over his promotion, because he was fired before.Once Fired Cop to be Promoted. The media should have been notified of the promotion of Fred McQuiggan on at least two occasions.
Double standards when you have Charlie Green, then a Lieutenant, get disciplined for an entire squad of police officers assigned to the Vice Unit, stealing from the city, and he is transferred to Internal Affairs, of all places. Green is then promoted and put in the Range. No mainstream media coverage, no outrage. Nothing.
Greg Riley, a white supervisor, is found guilty of egregious, arguably, crimes, and demoted, but sent back to the Impact Unit, and is summarily re-promoted. Yet a black Lieutenant, Jamil Taylor, is skipped.
Former Police Officer Christopher Hulmes, was charged with perjury. It took years, and the efforts of an ADA AJ Thomson, who stood up, and many concerned cops to continually report Hulmes lying in open court and admitting it. Lying Cop Charged.
The Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office was well aware of the perjury, yet they continued to call Hulmes to testify. And all the while, never notifying the defense attorney’s of his background, even though they had previous knowledge about his lack of credibility. This is a violation of the Brady rule. Defense attorney’s had to find this information out on their own, well, with the assistance of a few whistle blowers.
In Brady, The United States Supreme Court placed a duty on prosecutors to turn over all evidence favorable to the accused in a criminal trial. When asked why this wasn’t a Brady violation, the DA stated it was because the officer who saw the exchange of money wasn’t the officer in dispute and therefore not relevant. Lawyers take DA to Task for Protecting Lying cop
Yet his was given a perjury pass by the Assistant District Attorney Terri Domsky. ADA gives Lying COP ARD Moreover; no one challenged Hulmes getting his pension. Under civil service regulations, his crime occurred while he was working, thus, his pension should be forfeited.
We have to end all this. Both inside the department and it will have a ripple effect outside the department. If minorities have to live by double standards within police organizations, there is little wonder why they are doomed to live by double standards outside of them.
Everyone weeps when a police officer is killed in the line of duty. It is at that time when police organizations become one. There is a deep pain in the hearts of everyone about the heroes in Dallas. It really hit home for us as a nation. Americans were also outraged at the aftermath shooting of Philandro Castile that was streamed live by his girlfriend. It was in our living rooms, like television did during the Vietnam War and radio did for World War II. It was inescapable.
There is a travel advisory for Caribbean people visiting the United States because of these series of events. The Bahamas, a Caribbean nation where most people identify as being of African heritage, issued this warning to it’s citizens on Friday to be careful when visiting U.S. cities rocked by “shootings of young black males by police officers.” Scary.
As President Obama exclaimed today in Dallas, “our righteous anger can be transformed into more justice” and more peace. But we have to begin by having real meaningful dialogue. Acknowledge there is a problem. And begin to administer the same standard to all cops, regardless of their color, gender or creed.

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 ThomasLiciardello and his crew, Jeffrey CudjikCujdik Fired-Not Charged and his crew, HaroldLloyd 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 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
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
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, JosephMcCauley, who was once partnered with ChrisHulmes, 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 JackieMcCauley 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
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 DistrictAttorney 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
