Rumor is the new Police Chief is Mirtha Ramos from Miami Dade, and they are glad to get rid of her for several reasons. Based on all the comments on the Miami Dade law enforcement forum all the negative comments about her are disturbing. what does this mean for Dekalb police and why bring someone in who is surrounded by controversy.   

Congratulations to all the newly promoted supervisors, transfers and new academy graduates. 

It seems like every time a new academy graduates the Police department promotes more people and moves officers from uniform to other positions. this leaves the uniform division short-staffed again. I think the department is very top-heavy as it is shouldn't the goal to be keeping good veteran officers and making sure the uniform division is staffed adequately to provide a good service for the citizens of DeKalb county.
