I couldnt agree more. No offense to our brothers in corrections, but you can forget any ideas of merger. Its not ever going to happen unless all corrections officers go through the police academy either here or in richmond. Thats the only way you willbe pops certified. You cant be grandfathered in as police officers because the law wont allow it. Even if LMPD does take over the jail nothing will change except a police major will oversee corrections. It wouldnt be any different than the KSP/KVE merger KVE is run by KSP but they are not considered troopers, they still make way less money than troopers, and they are even more miserable than before. They have a KSP major that is in charge of KVE who could care less about them, and thats what will happen here if corrections is run by LMPD.

Geez, how many times can a person say "police academy" in one paragraph? Corrections and Police have at least one thing in common.....they both have dumbasses working for them all the way from line staff to administration. Just because the LMDC Director and his flock fall into this category, do not look at the CO's that way. Jerry Abramson picked this "clown" when there were several others in the running that would have been a much better choice.
