Usually when something of significance happens with the department, Chief O'Brien will either address the issue himself or through a press release from his office. Funny how he allegedly makes all these moves and the media finds out through "a spokes person from the department".
It's common to move assistant chiefs in mass? Horse squeeze. Even Tebo didn't move his entire command staff in one day!
Hey Wiz, you shouldn't be so cocky about whether people will talk or not. They may not on camera, but you better watch out for those behind the scene. Just ask Terrell Bolton.
You should have just done the right thing. Now it is out of control and you are going to drag this whole department down with you.

Obviously you have no idea who your talking about lets pull everything out of the closets from command staff. The Major of CID arrogant? are you kidding? You obviously dont work for him, or maybe he was your boss years ago and you were just a lazy slug. SOD lucked out? I would love to see/hear chief lane or williams whatever her name is today speak at a public event there is no way she could properly use a 4 letter word in a sentence. Im not even going to mention Holmes, what a scary thought him has head dog.
Sophia Choi: Keep digging. Chief OB may have signed the document, but that's not where it came from. Keep looking into this and while you're at it, dig into Asst. Chief Holmes and Wiz Miller and their roles in the incident with Holmes secretary and the officers that were/are being investigated for doing their jobs.
Oh how in the heck are we going to survive this...CID is screwed, on one hand we now have a chief whose greatness is because of his hair and the other is a major who has a head so big from his ego that how can the bldg contain them both at the same time. This is truly going to be interesting. Any openings in SOD or Training?????
Ms. Choi, why don't you ask the Director why he ordered the K9 that alerted on the secretays car to be re-certified the next day and why did he and Chief Holmes attend. Oh wait I guess that will go up in smoke as well.
Did one of the Assistant Chiefs knock up a recruit in the academy a few years ago?
I am truly happy to see we are not the only ones on here. No gag–orders. No one affraid of losing their jobs. Nothing! Lets air out the dirty laundry guys. Now if only we can direct some of our citizens who elect these officals to this page, we maybe can go back to being an elite department!
Are the sergeants, lieutenants, captains and majors next?.... I predict a big shake up at Candler Road...
"Chief O'Brien made the decision to reassign the assistant chiefs. Supervisors, sergeants and above are commonly reassigned based on the goals and needs of the police department. This is the first rotation under the current organizational chart, however, a similar rotation could be executed in the future at the discretion of the chief of police," a statement from the police department said.
Stop being snitches!! Everytime you hear something you go run tell the news without knowing the whole story. The news does not care about the truth only getting a juicy store and making us look bad.
I'd like to know why Lattrice wasn't sent for a drug test. I'd love the phone records between Wiz and Holmes during the investigation on Lattrice. Oh wait she wasn't investigated only the police officers.
So 4 officers say that a car smells like weed, a K-9 officer responds, the K9 ignores every car in the parking lot except for the car the 4 officers smelled weed coming from, the car belongs to Assistant Chief Holmes's secretary, the secretary is not asked to take a drug test, but the K9 handler had to take a recertification test supervised by Wiz and Holmes?? How much more corrupt can you get??
No drug test for the secretary, but the K-9 had to take a test?? Way to go Wiz and Holmes! Everyone sees how dirty you two are now!
For anonymous 4-28-12 0220 yes I worked with your Major in center uniform and in sod when he tried to ride a motor so I do know him and yes he is an egotistical self-centered arrogant pompous ass. He was a slug as an officer and could not do anything right. He did what he knows best and became a salesman and jumped on the coat tails of anyone with rank and rode his way all the way to the top. I can come to work and know that my men and women who work for me respect me because I treat them like men and women and with respect I am fair and honest and I have a clear conscious on all the decisions I make and how I treat people. I may never get promoted any higher than what I am and that is fine at least I was not hand fed any of the test and I reached my rank on my own. You are right the new sod chief and the uniform chief and the cid chief are not well spoken and it is scary to think of any of them as a new police chief at all. I am sorry if I hurt your feelings because you are a pet of the CID Major or the new CID chief but once you open your eyes and realize what and who they are then you will see what everyone else does. This place is in big trouble for us all and I get discouraged but I try to set a good example and show my troops that we have to stick together til the end. I can go in 5 years or maybe sooner I pray the rest of you can make it to retirement. God bless and good speed
Hey........I thought that APD was totally fucked up. DCPD has every department in the twenty - three county area beaten by many times over.
DCPD is so fucked up that a writer couldn't write this stuff for any cops & robbers show.
Its basically a lughing stock and that is simply put !!!
Sophia Choi seems pretty smart, if the other(s) won't comment anymore, then maybe she needs to speak to the other(s) boss, it is a re-election year. While she's at it, she can ask some of the commissioners what they think.
To anon 11:05
Really??
I'm just looking forward to the day that a man won't be judged by the color of his skin and he will be judged on the content of his character.
Anon 12:44
Well said! I take it you are not in the elite know it all club of the DKPD. I know I will never be smart enough to be a member.
Anon 10:33
You are right about DKPD being fucked up. But it is a leadership problem that has caused a culture problem. I still say there are a lot of damn good officers who work for this department. Some of the best officers in the state of GA work for DKPD. It is not their fault the department is fucked up.
Look here you guys can't even get past 12 post on this issue which, on it's face appears to be very serious. So please allow me to let you down as easy as I can. Find something else to complain about because the media is interested in covering anything about the Wiz, or Bur-rell!
Im telling you Dale "Mumble" Holmes is a back stabbing SOB....When he was Narcotics Commander he kept a black cloud over the unit. I say its time he has to account for his behavior
If the media wants to do a news investigation then they need to look into all the Chiefs, Majors & Capts, who have been taking on-line college course on the taxpayers dime. Yeah...you heard me right...sitting in their offices doing college course work while getting paid at the same time. All they would have to do is do an open request on the ip addresses associated with each computer. Talk about violating the public's trust and county policies all at the same time...these same policies they force on the rest of us and threaten you with....
Anybody listening to what I'm saying....if you're going to open a can of worms...don't open just one, open all of them.
I appreciate the information that the blog relays but I must say what is not posted on here bothers me too. When Detective Richards passed there were no mentions of him on this site. Why didn't this site honor one of our own. I know that it was not a line of duty death but that should not matter. He was one of our own but this site that claims to represent us did not honor him. I have seen other fallen officers honored on this site, why not him? I have seen officers that have been retired for decades honored on this site. Richards was still an active duty officer at the time of his death. This site has lost credibility with a large segment of DeKalb Officers because of this inaction.
Dekalb has to get better at hiding these criminal activities. Look at APD, they are experts at committing crimes and covering it up.
To Anon May2, 2012 12:05 AM,
Our sincere apology the death of Officer Richards did not get posted. We strive to to keep everyone informed, particularly when it comes to the lose of one of our brothers.
Dekalb Officers
News Flash. If you are certain skin color and you make the news in a negative way, it will be posted. Did you notice the Captains story and the female Sergeant at east never made the this Blog? Things that make you say Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Its time to move on to another subject......We have read enough about WEED.
The soap opera, known as DKPD, continues.... wow, you can't make this stuff up....I saw DKPD in the news again yesterday!
WOW BLOGMASTER I AM STARTING TO SEE THAT YOU ARE JUST IN IT TO MAKE THE COUNTY LOOK BAD... I WANT TO HEAR MORE ABOUT MY FALLEN SOLDIER AKA BROTHER RICHARDSON...
It will be time to move on from the "weed" when the people who set out to destroy good cops are taken down. The corruption in this police department needs to be stopped so Dekalb can be the department it was 20 years ago---GOOD. So you move on while the rest of us try to get rid of the poison in this county.
10:48am, if you're tired of reading on the blog about black county employees covering up crime, being fired, arrested, or indicted, join the club! But is that really blog's fault? Maybe if it wasn't happening so much, I'm just saying.
One of the blogs favorite targets is Richard Stogner, a white guy. White people aren't ignored by the blog. The news story about the captain at east said Clayton County police said she wasn't under investigation for anything. I guess you missed that part, detective.
What female sergeant at East?
Hey Anon 8:03 I didn't mean to call you out, hit Pit Bulls will scream. Question if you happen to work uniform and you stop a Stolen Vehicle, deeply occupied by four. Every ass is going to take the ride for. THEFT BY RECEIVING. Glad to read you finally have a issue with that charge, maybe now people can be treated equal. Now the detective in Auto Theft. Anyone here about that? Hmmm he is being investigated by the FED's. And the East Sergeant that came from Tucker, let's just say she can't keep her Thong's on. So Mr. 8:03 all these incidents have one common denominator. Can you figure it out DETECTIVE? I will give you a clue they are not, you fill in the blank B--ck!
Guys and girls the DKPD has always been fucked up. Just like every other department. Egos always get in the way. Egos determine assignmnets, uniforms, weapons, color of cars.
Face it, do you really think bobbie burgess and his merry men didnt cover up or hide things.
The best person we ever had was F. D. Hand. Under him, we were the best paid, best trained, and best equipped in the nation.
Bobbie was against semi automatics because we had officers' revolvers rusted shut because of no maintenace. He was against walkie talkies because officers would be out of their cars having sex instead of answering calls, he was against KDTs the forerunners of computers, the dui task force, the swat team and the academy. so on son on.
All of these items F. D. Hand got through grants and didnt cost the county a dime.
Dekalb police has always been a department where the ass-kissers will always win. Officers will rat out their best friends for weekends off, take home cars, and positions where they can call themselves police officers, carry a gun and badge but never really take the risk that an average street cop handles every day.
You ass-kissers know who you are and please realize the real police officers will always hate your guts.
Dekalb uniform patrol officers still handle more calls, write more reports, and deal with more dangerous situations than any other department in the state.
To these dedicated officers that really do the work, make the arrests, and deal with the risks, I applaud you.
Stay safe and make sure you and your fellow officers make it home after your shifts.
Happily retired
Just remember, it was white employees who sued in federal court over racism in this county and won.
You're really going to cry racism over a white auto theft detective in the mail room and a white female Sgt getting transferred to another precinct not making the news? Maybe there's just not much of a story there! If he's under investigation, maybe they don't have enough to run a good story yet? Why run a story with no good information? Did that ever cross your feeble mind? Adkinson is under investigation and they ran a story, but that's because there was a lot of information leaked to the news. They even had the rape victim come forward and give an interview. It's easy to run a story when you have a lot of information to work with!! As for the female Sgt, does every disciplinary action in the department have to make the news to make you happy?
As for your auto theft example, not even relevant here. If you actually made an auto theft arrest before, passengers are cut loose 99% of the time. If the driver has keys, he's getting cut loose too. Did it ever occur to you that maybe Clayton County police know a little more about the situation with the Captain than you do? Or are you under the delusion that you know everything? It sure seems like you think you know everything.
You are absolutely right about uniform but we get treated like crap. We got people bragging how they make $40 an hour with there take home car. How are uniform officers suppose to react to crap like that.
Anon 8:33 what suit was won in Federal Court? Has anyone been arrested in that idiot Atkisons case? And do you arrest everyone in the car if they have keys to the unit? Fair is fair. You guys are funny, looks like double standards to me. And one last thing read the code section for Theft by Receiving.
