Blame every Chief that hired him.
-
Just a dirty cop......A Liar with a badge.....he should never be a cop again.
-
This is what journalism is supposed to be about.
-
He should be on a police red list instead of resigning and banned from working in any department. It's interesting how its a lot of empathy and compassion for a thug.
-
"Asked him to resign". How about firing him?
-
Don't call him a gentleman! He's a criminal.
-
The chief needs to resign he is NOT OMNIPOTENT
-
Police should NEVER be able to police themselves. The thin blue line is just a smoke screen and line of protection for them.
-
Why isn't this man in jail?
-
He didn't "slip through" the system, the system flung it's door wide open. Allowed to resign over and over. Allowed to get hired again and again. He should have been fired every time.

Thanks for outting this predator!
-
Cops should not be able to refuse the questions of a reporter or citizen when the question directly relates to their job.
-
This is a huge part of the problem. Bad cops hiring even worse cops.
-
This is why local journalism is an invaluable resource. They expose corruption in our community.
-
A chief did not pursue a criminal investigation because he resigned? Any criminal activity would be investigated regardless 😠
-
"...slip through the system" Equivalent to a cow slipped through my front door.
-
He took a car, sold it, and pocketed the money. How was he not arrested after his first job
-
Thank you for pursuing the facts on this story. The crooked officer's history and the discharging agencies failing to state the truth about him is indicative of good reason to not place trust in our law enforcement agencies in general. It's a sad state of affairs.

If these police departments aren't willing to uphold their oaths to defend & protect its citizens, even when they need to hold (their own) corrupt police officers accountable, then WHO SHOULD the public trust?? It's pathetic that this is what it takes to get the police to follow-thru on their obligations to uphold their oaths. Journalists policing the police. Perhaps, our town taxes should be paying you instead of the police department??? Thank you for your investigative work and due diligence in covering & following important informative news such as this cover story for the public.😍🎉

This is why cops who get fired or resign due to misconduct should never be allowed to wear a badge ever again.
