More Spin and Marty!

The above reference to Spin and Marty was for the benefit of older folks like myself who use to watch the Disney Series Spin and Marty. Marty in this Series is of course Ozzie’s training Deputy. Keeping in mind that this whole expensive exercise was created to prove I’m a liar and make me eat crow, so from Ozzie’s perspective I certainly would have to be Spin, and he tries to make a case for that throughout this series.

As we are discussing Cops that lie, for some reason, Ozzie throws the case below in.

 

SUSAN B. ANTHONY LIST ET AL. v. DRIEHAUS ET AL.

I believe the 2007 date Ozzie talks about is when the case was first filed, then worked its way up to SCOTUS via the Sixth District and a 2014 SCOTUS Decision. I really don’t see the relevance to Cops that lie in their official capacity and Politicians that lie. SCOTUS just said it is okay for politicians to lie, something they never do of course, but nothing about Cops lying in their official capacity. All Politicians can of course lie during a campaign, or thereafter with some impunity beyond the ethics rules.

Okay, I admit right after Ozzie brought up the SCOTUS case I did kind of use a little I & I Technique which is also a ploy used by defense attorneys to beat up on Cops on the witness stand, and something I’ve been asked by defense attorneys, I have no idea how many times. When you are on the witness stand a defense, attorney to make the witness look like a liar asks someone if they have ever lied, the honest answer for 99.99% of the population is “Yes.” The follow-up after a “No” response is … “You mean you have never lied to your wife or family?” then it can go downhill from there.

We get a little deeper and more specific into the staffing level of the Spokane Valley City staffing level and find that the SCSO is down 14 positions, and when that happens per Ozzie he splits it up, which would mean SVC is down 7, and the rest of the County is also down 7, so the question remains whether Ozzie is fulfilling his contract with the SVC, and whether they care or not. 

 

I am not going to get into detail about Case Management Systems, Solvability Factors, Choke Points, Detective Caseloads, etcetera, and will only say … been there done that … no T-shirt just Atta Boy junk, because Ozzie said he was going to consider whether his 130 cases per year per Property Crime Detective is way too low. 

Ozzie when he checks will be able to find considerable documentation that his 130 cases is low as ICMA pointed out.

There is a distinct difference by the way between “Solvability” and “Clearance”, some other time maybe. 

 

A little more about Ozzie’s new business and where he lives. 

I hope Phil Tyler takes a careful look at this statement by Ozzie “He’s the NAACP President.” and the context. I might have missed it but at this point I haven’t heard anything from Phil Tyler regarding the McMurtrey case. Ozzie’s AML (Administrative Memory Loss) fortunately goes into remission and he remembers some IA stuff I brought up earlier.

Ozzie explains what happened with the guy that gave him the “International Obscene Number One Gesture.”

We begin to get into the Travis Pendell issue.

 

A little levity at the end about who is the Boss. The real Boss of course is all of us, and no one person! 

 

HERE YOU GO!

I REPORT HSS YOU DECIDE!!!

 

For folks that may be wondering today’s Episode (SIX) is out of clip order. For some reason, I am having a hard time uploading the clip that should have been Episode Six but now hopefully will be Episode SEVEN for tomorrow. I believe I have the issue fixed. I didn’t want to delay public access so I put up today’s clip out of order, sorry for the inconvenience and I will get everything I have posted ASAP!

 

The crow eating quest continues!

This Episode continues with the camera on the Power Point Presentation playing the press conference with Ozzie’s very own expert Jarrod Carter. You must keep in mind that Ozzie’s intent in this entire production was to make me out to be a liar, and make me eat crow. I don’t think it is working, but that’s up to you.

As you can see in the video when Carter states that he took a closer look at scene images based upon the plaintiff’s information, I point out that it was the plaintiff’s expert who was responsible for the hat band impression being found in the bumper of the vehicle. Ozzie of course could not stand for that being on his video so he must try and clean that up.

“Brian, did you read the report?” I sure did, and I have no idea how many thousands of police reports I have read. It is funny because when I read the Holyk case file I saw something I have seen hundreds of times, and that is a cop trying to explain away evidence that contradicts the investigative theory. Remember the theory was that Bodman never hit Holyk, so no hit no foul.

Ozzie for some reason tries to demonstrate that it was Carr’s report that was the reason Cater found the evidence that Bodman hit Holyk. When you read Carr’s report that Ozzie was referring to in the images below you might take note of the fact that Carr to explain away the DNA found on the bumper he documents his theory of how it got there if Bodman didn’t hit Holyk primarily based upon the Grant Fredericks analysis. Carr in his report talks about the improbability of Holyk getting up with a broken hand and moving his bike 180 degrees as one explanation of how the DNA got on the bumper. Later in his report Carr specifically attributes Holyk’s DNA being on the bumper as “TRANSFER.”

The truth is “Transfer” without the hat band impression is a plausible explanation for Holyk’s DNA being on the bumper. The possibility of DNA “Transfer” from the victim to other pieces of evidence at a scene is something that every homicide investigator knows must be minimized as much as possible. In the civil litigation, OUR lawyers who are representing OUR County would be remiss if they don’t try and make a point that Holyk’s DNA on the bumper was the result of “Transfer” and not contact. To do so OUR lawyers would also have to beat up on Ozzie’s expert Jarrod Carter. It reminds me a little bit of the Creach case where if it had gotten to trial OUR lawyers would have had to beat up on OUR expert the Medical Examiner Doctor Howard regarding the trajectory of Hirzel’s shot that killed Creach.

You also might want to take note in Carter’s presentation his comments about “speed involved.” Later you will learn that Ozzie still maintains that speed was NOT a factor in the death of Ryan Holyk.

Ozzie wants to get away from my questions regarding the Holyk case and quickly moves on to the Deputies booted out of the Academy.

I want to make something very clear at this point regarding the next issue, which involves things dealing with Ozzie’s hiring practices.

I liked Ozzie’s training Sargent, he gives the appearance of having as much fun as I was, and has a nice smile, he seems like an honest guy to me. He just didn’t like my characterization of a “Bad Hire.”

One very notable admission by Ozzie right here on the big screen is what many of us have known for years, and that is the power of the Law Enforcement Lobby in Olympia. Ozzie even goes into how when he was trying to get this dead from the get go thing passed he was threatened by the Law Enforcement Lobbyist. Even with all the big media productions and stories, it was of course destined to be a failure.

Ozzie was exactly right about the 2003 date regarding the WSCJTC rules about lying Cops. You might note that I told Ozzie I couldn’t remember the dates, and I’d look it up, which I did. The LaFrance case was decided by the Washington State Supreme Court on October 29^th, 2009, and is an interesting read if you are so inclined.

So far, I have been unable to locate cites concerning Ozzie’s statement that and Arbitration Ruling must precede a Decertification Hearing, I could have missed it but here are some of the places I looked.

http://app.leg.wa.gov/wac/default.aspx?cite=139

http://app.leg.wa.gov/wac/default.aspx?cite=139-06-040

http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=43.101

https://fortress.wa.gov/cjtc/www/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=25&Itemid=26

I am not saying the cites don’t exist, they may, I just can’t find them yet. Even though Ozzie hasn’t answered one post meeting email I will shoot him another one today and ask for the cite. Keep in mind that going after a Cop’s State Certification is an idea to “Break the chain” of the “Cottage Industry” that has been built up surrounding Disciplinary Arbitration for Cops.

HERE YOU GO!

I REPORT HSS YOU DECIDE!!!

I’m having some problems uploading Ozzie/Buff Episode Six, but I’ll get there and hopefully tomorrow!

In the meantime, there lots of behind the scenes things going on in local law enforcement I’m trying to keep on top of.
