  FBI Public Corruption Unit seeks our cooperation in investigation of the Little Rock Mayor and Police Chief by Russ Racop On Tuesday, August 10, 2021 I received a call from a special agent with the Little Rock field office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the Public Corruption Unit. The individual that called refused to provide his name, and I assumed it was a scam call like one about your Social Security number being disabled or the last call about your car warranty expiring. The man said "we think you have some information that can help us on one of our cases."   I told him to call an attorney friend of mine and try to schedule the meeting. I gave them the number of fellow blogger and attorney Matt Campbell. Matt publishes  Blue Hog Report  and we often collaborate to expose shady public officials and government corruption. I called Matt and gave him a heads up. Some time later Matt sent me a text. I wanted Matt along to be a witness as I felt certain I would not

CORRUPTION SUCKS BLOG: its purpose  Overview CORRUPTION SUCKS BLOG: its purpose Overview Though often coarse in language and chronically straight to the point, the primary goal of Corruption Sucks Blog is to provide the tools, research, resources, and news to help good government, cops, community leaders, victims, and other concerned citizens address the complex issue of governmental & especially police misconduct. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for everyone to get up to speed on how prevalent governmental corruption and misconduct actually are in everyday local government. Especially regarding police misconduct and the woeful lack of police oversight at the local levels of government supervision. This way, more energy can be constructively invested in real progress, especially in law enforcement and how they deal with members of the community. Most especially if the officer resides in another city or town other than where he works and carries a gun &a

  Lonoke County Sheriff's Office files charges against a female detention employee We were tipped off that a female Lonoke County Detention Deputy or employee was arrested earlier this week for sexually assaulting multiple female inmates and providing contraband items such as cellphones and drugs to inmates.  To hide the arrest from online exposure (LCSO arrests and booking are posted online) the Sheriff had the city police do it. We called the Lonoke police department and the cop that we spoke with stated he was not authorized to release her name. He said we would have to get that from the chief. To cut to the chase, we sent the Lonoke Police chief, Matt Edwards,  a FOI request via a text message to his cellphone.    This is an image of the full FOI request.     Why is the Lonoke Police Department unwilling to provide the name of the individual or immediately provide the booking records and mugshot? It's all public information. We suspect the Lonoke Police Chief won't be h
