I don’t get it. Why did Hurley tell his officers to find non-police ways of policing black youth crime?

So he and his boss the M-D schools superintendent could take credit for the big reduction in juvenile crime.

Because CRIME by black yutes in school was so high. By finding non-police ways to 'discipline' the yutes, the CRIME FIGURES were drastically reduced. (The CRIMES were not reduced, just the FIGURES).

This made the SCHOOL look good, and increased Federal Funding.

IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT THE MONEY.

You know, it’s really bad when you have a SCHOOL POLICE DEPARTMENT.

No kidding!! And I thought ‘Study Hall’, (look it up youngn’s), was a bad enough ‘Police State Type Department’ at school. Remember Study Halls Ol Reb?

And for what reason should the producers be taxed to support juvenile criminal trash?

Sorry if any Libtards are offended, but the death of “St. Martin of the Purple Drank”, AKA Trayvon Martin saved teh taxpayers many hundreds of thousands of their hard earned dollars.

PS Expecting any reasoned behavior from the Miami-Dade Pooblik Skrewl Collective is wildly optimistic.

The Houston ISD has their own police department.

Showed up to ref a girls volleyball match between two schools and noticed there seemed to be more than the usual number of administrators, the usual uniformed officer (they have them at games even in the small towns), and what appeared to be a couple of guys wearing sports jackets who turned out to be detectives with the school district. apparently the two teams go involved in an altercation in the parking lot after their previous match.

In football, there can be 3-5 cops that travel to away games to make sure there are not problems, mostly between fans of the schools. This way local law enforcement can deal with problems created by people from their own town.

For the same reason Clinton changed the way we calculate National Debt-to-National Deficit, so he could claim a non-existent "surplus" in our coffers when he left office.

Come up with the lie that achieves your desired appearance or outcome, and then convince the rubes that it's legitimate.

There, that's done!

Sounds like Chief Hurley bears some indirect responsibility for the death of St. Trayvon of Skittles.

Had Chief Hurley simply done his job properly and instructed his officers to do the same, Trayvon would have probably been arrested and be alive today, even if incarcerated.

Burying crime stats is stupid and doing it specifically for black male students is both racist and sexist. Shame on the M-DSPD!

"...a policeman is assigned to come once a week to teach drug class..."

Like, where to get the cheapest weed, how to keep your "works" sanitized, and stuff like that? Seems an odd job for a cop...

With that investigation, Hurley opened a can of worms that led to his removal from office.

He was suspended to try to quell public outrage (IMO). And reassigned after two female subordinates sex harassment suits alleging. there was an undisclosed settlement with the females.

Sworn statements obtained during that internal investigation show that his goal was to divert kids away from Criminal Records and avoid bad optical statistics.

My impression was that he wanted keep them out of the criminal system to divert them away from crime before they became adult criminals. I've read nothing about them seeking "good optics".

The only thing I've seen about money is in the comment section at theconservativetreehouse. Help me out if you know more about it than I do.
