RE: Former Metro Corrections employees sue again
Amen brother!! On behalf of all my co-workers on LMPD that actually do work and care please accept our apology for the knuckleheads that only want to get on here and dog everyone else. Remember, most of these crybabies talking bad about you guys are the same ones probably that have failed to do their jobs and you guys called them on it.
So for all the good officers from LMPD our apologies for this site being used to criticize good people like you and the many others that you work with.

No one at the bottom has the power to fix anything. The web site chitchat defuses a lot of the animosity. No one's holding rallies or picketing like back in the days of Dave Armstrong. That might also be because so many people are far having 20 years and have more to lose. No one with sense stays past 20 on a department being run like LMPD if they can find a post-retirement job, unless their buddy can get them a nice easy job away from the street. I'm about 99% sure most of the people complaining about the "whiners" are the ones whose buddies got them off the street or they're on the Command staff.
If Corrections, LMPD, or the courts have a problem, they all end up having a problem. If an officer misses a knife in a search, a Corrections officer could get stabbed. If a Corrections officer decides to take a smoke break, making half a dozen police wait on bookings unnecessarily, then some other officer might get killed because there's no backup available. There are many good officers on both departments, but many people know who some real sh*tbags and maybe even a few criminals are on both. Defending those people out of a warped sense of loyalty makes the whole department look like sh*tbags and criminals.
One thing I'll agree with you about is training. Police academies that last 6 months are the city lawyers' way of convincing courts that the city tried to train an officer that's getting the department sued. Most of the training is useless filler, unless they are going to be an Alaska State Trooper expected to be a roving 1-man police department. You don't need that much training for new patrol officers on a city police department having lots of supervisors and house mice around to randomly watch your in-car camera and make up new policies every week to tell you how many times to wipe your butt when using the restroom. What passes for routine policing in Louisville is considered laying down in most cities. That kind of "training" will ruin even the best police academy graduate in a short amount of time and it has already done so in many cases.
