It was Tuesday when some North Forest Independent School District police officers said they were forced to patrol in the cold after their interim police chief ordered them to remove their jackets while on duty.
Those allegations came after the officers say they didn't have on their department designed patches for their jackets.
Chief Larry Patrick insists the Insite received only half the story. Here's the response from NFISD:
Note: The officers who contacted the Insite are drafting a response to the chief's statement. They say Tuesday's blog post was accurate and they deny the claims being made by Chief Patrick. They also deny having department issued jackets. I've placed an open records request from North Forest requesting that information.
The Insite will keep you updated!

“All NFISD
officers are issued cold weather jackets, windbreakers and rain gear.
When I became interim chief in May of 2011, I made changes to the uniforms and
patches. During the Christmas break, I asked officers to make the patch
changes to their winter jackets, which are now in use. At a meeting at
the high school Tuesday, I asked all the officers who had not made the change
and who were working as school resource officers that day—meaning they
were inside the building, not on patrol, during their shift—to give us
their jackets for 90 minutes so they could have the correct patch put on at the
district’s expense. At no time were officers working outside
without jackets. No officers were required to pay for the patches.”

This employee is upset she has to get in the field and is doing the work of the previous chief that was canned by the district. She was asked to remove those patches the week before. She was offered to have the patches put her her uniform for free. Isaiah go to UofH and see just why she aint there anymore. LOL nosides
ReplyDeleteSo timid, these officers. Children needs protection from them, they are receiving tax payers money to do their job and they are upset about a stupid jacket. This story seems to be a bit shady.
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous this employee has been disgruntle since the previous chief was oust out and now he is using her to do his dirty work. When he (the former chief holland jones)first came to North Forest he called all of his employees stupid and dumb and said no one else want to work with a bunch of dummies. He hired a transistion team who he allowed to com in and talk down to people and after he got what he wanted from them, he forced them out the door. Then he brought in his 2nd transition team who kicked trash cans at employees, used racists slurs, threathened employees extra jobs and told his employees if he found out they knew something and didn't tell him, he could not trust them and would find a way to get rid of them. Now he has this particular employee fighting his battles, but where was he (the big time lawyer)when allegations was brought against him? Could he not fight his own battle and try to keep his job. Nooooooo but he is using this employee to do his dirty work and she is too dumb to see this. Well let's just say her career is OVER because his law firm can't hire her because he has no clients. Who's fooling who? Look at both track records of these employees, he has cause precinct 7 to be under investigation because of a female officer he pushed through the fto program whom he had relations with and the north forest employee who brought reported this story was fired from u of h police dept because of integrity. Isiah before you go around reporting false information look at the real fact. There's a old say "the dog that's bring the bone is the one carrying the bone."
ReplyDeleteLOL three times ova...ijs
