Officer departures dominate LMPD budget hearing

Buckner got into trouble in Little Rock and went to Syracuse, where he's been an unsworn civilian police chief since he hasn't passed the physical requirements. That gig will be up in a few more months. Burns and Buckner are probably at the top of the list to replace Conrad.

We'd be better off having a random drawing among the Lt's to pick the next Chief than having our Facebook Live blogger of a Mayor do it.
