However, the punishment should fit the crime and from the little I've heard it does sound that the punishment against Officer Bonar was overly harsh in this case. And I think you made a great point when you stated "In a better world, the CRIMINALS would get as severe reprimands as has Jon Bonar." This obviously is not the case.<BR/><BR/>Now, regarding Karen Richards: Just after my home was fire-bombed a couple years ago, a FWPD officer laughed at me about the situation and told me to quit causing problems with the drug dealers here. Because that officer was a member of the Command Staff, this implied to me that FWPD had no concern for my personal safety.<BR/><BR/>That was the circumstances under which I filed a formal complaint against that officer. Because of the high rank of this officer, I feared that my actions might draw retribution from the department as a whole. That is why I sent a copy of my complaint to Karen Richards also. Her reply was that her office had no business investigating the internal affairs of FWPD.<BR/><BR/>So, why is Richrds not willing to just let the police handle things themselves this time? I'd bet money it's something political.Phil Marxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04372454786699413982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33342813.post-41817618970330133622009-01-06T10:09:00.000-05:002009-01-06T10:09:00.000-05:00I thought about that, Dan....but he did a LOT of G...I thought about that, Dan....but he did a LOT of GOOD police work too.<BR/>(which all that O/T did was keep him away from home)<BR/><BR/>Maybe someone got "jealous"???<BR/><BR/>Many times, those in authority will resort to trumping up crap to divert attention from THEMSELVES in some fashion...<BR/><BR/>Scapegoat?<BR/>Anyone?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your thoughts, Buddy!Bob G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09222203353717749897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33342813.post-17234217695162003152009-01-06T08:48:00.000-05:002009-01-06T08:48:00.000-05:00Maybe Bonar was targeted because he make Soooooo m...Maybe Bonar was targeted because he make Soooooo much money?AWBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10104604075864511656noreply@blogger.com
