Memphis Police Chief CJ Davis was previously fired from Atlanta PD, then reinstated

She appealed the firing and was reinstated, then left for Durham, NC.


and was picked from there for Memphis

In Atlanta:

As a commander, she led Atlanta’s Special Operations Section, which included SWAT, mounted patrol, motors, APD’s helicopter unit, vice and narcotics. She also led the city’s infamous REDDOG unit, according to her biography on the Memphis police site.

Good sleuthing, Beeches.

The corrupt get corrupter and corrupter.
Then rewarded and elevated.

Some info on that Red Dog Unit in Atlanta:

The Atlanta Police Department's Red Dog Unit gained notoriety following the unconscionable — and,
according to a federal court ruling, unlawful — raid of the Atlanta Eagle in Midtown.

Now, according to police, three officers who participated in the raid have been put on administrative duty following another instance of alleged misconduct.

Two men have alleged that during a traffic stop, officers with the Red Dog Unit humiliated and groped them whilst searching for illegal drugs. Brian Kidd says he was forced to pull down his pants on the side of the road; his roommate, Shawn Venegas, claims he was cavity searched — all in public and all in broad daylight.

No drugs were found on either of the men.

CJ loves her special aggressive police units. And they keep getting themselves in trouble.

There is a long interesting story at the link about an officer in the Atlanta Red Dog unit. It looks like these units attract overly zealous officers with mental problems...

May 9, 2008: Major D.A. Williams wrote a memo to Major C.J. Davis of the Office of Professional Standards requesting a “file extension” because “Officer E. Rabb (Red Dog Unit) was arrested by the Clayton County Police Department on an unrelated case and was suspended without pay” as of that day. Rabb was also informed that as of May 09, his status changed from suspended with pay, to suspended without pay.

the five in Memphis must have thought they could get away with it.

Durham, North Carolina

so I found out today

is a really crime-ridden city..

It's accepted and expected in the Chocolate cities!

I’m glad they got their diversity hire for reform. As someone that avoids both cops and blacks, it couldn’t have worked out any better from my perspective.
