Hey Terrell: Have you read the Grand Jury report yet? Did you see this? "Tasers might might have helped prevent some suspect deaths. The panel recommended giving all officers one of the stun guns."
Do you think you could have bought tasers with all that money you spent on those stupid looking campers?

Why does Dekalb even have a CEO's position???with his salary of 145K a year we could have several officers salary or even more patrol cars or even tasers!!!...why yes...it is a worthless position..he has obtained EVERYTHING he wanted from Dekalb with 2 terms in office including a full retirement...Thanks to the fine citizens of deklab for re-electing him. We need to notify the govenor and ask him to do away with the position like several other counties have.
Yes...the buck stops here!! of course..he's on the way out...easy to take the blame...what are they going to do??? cut his hair and make him work southside morning watch?? If Dunwoody become seperate and its own city...that will be close to 35 to 38% of Dekalb's tax base.(rather a large chunk of change)..does that mean we will have to write more tickets??? or get demoted or poop detail if we don't??? I'm glad of the small raise for the senior MPO's,..but what about the rest of us little folks??..bottom line..look through the smoke screen people...12 have already committed to the S.O. and are on the way out!!!...then people ask me why I step out of the car on a violent call with a shotgun in hand??? cause there's not back up...god knows ICP folks are in a community meeting or asking for a screened unit...the only place that I know of that when you call 911...they put you on hold!!!..Vernon...I'm glad your on the way out....cause we need all the help we can get after your gone.
I wanted to weigh in on the Grand Jury finding today. The most important thing I will comment on is that M.P.O. Dennis Stepnowski did not break Dekalb County foot chase policy. Dennis had probable cause and a secondary Officer with him when he ran down a armed drug suspect who was wanted for Murder out of New Orleans. Officer Stepnowski should be remembered as a true servant of Dekalb County Citizens, He gave his life for you. I worked with him for over 10 years and can honestly say he was responsible for taking more felons off the street than 98 percent of us officers out here. To the family of Dennis I appologize for this trash printed in the paper today. Citizens please try to understand the job a Police Officer tries to accomplish on a daily basis, the last thing we want to have to do is shoot or let alone kill your son or daughter. Read the paper when they print out the daily murders, shotings, rapes, robberies and other forcible felonys going on in dekalb. I have been here quite a few years and this is the worse I have ever seen crime in Dekalb. I tell you what keep your raise and give us back the dignity Dekalb County Police once had. Money ain't everything. God bless you Dennis, you are missed!
