Blue Code of Silence READ ABOUT:  Little Rock's Newest Corrupt Police Chief Kenton Buckner The examples and perspective in this article deal primarily with the United States and do not represent a worldwide view of the subject. The Blue Code of Silence (also known as the Blue Shield, Blue Wall, Curtain, Vei l, or Cocoon) is an unwritten rule among police officers in the United States not to report on another colleague's errors, misconducts, or crimes. If questioned about an incident of misconduct involving another officer (e.g. during the course of an official inquiry), while following the code, the officer being questioned would claim ignorance of another officer's wrongdoing. The code is considered to be police corruption and misconduct. Any officers who engaged in discriminatory arrests, physical or verbal harassment, and selective enforcement of the law are considered to be corrupt. Many officers who follow the code may participate in some of

Title 42, U.S.C., Section 14141 makes it unlawful for state or local law enforcement agencies to allow officers to engage in a pattern or practice of conduct that deprives persons of rights protected by the Constitution or U.S. laws. This law, commonly referred to as the Police Misconduct Statute, gives the Department of Justice authority to seek civil remedies in cases where law enforcement agencies have policies or practices that foster a pattern of misconduct by employees. This action is directed against an agency, not against individual officers. The types of issues which may initiate a pattern and practice investigation include: -Lack of supervision/monitoring of officers’ actions; -Lack of justification or reporting by officers on incidents involving the use of force; -Lack of, or improper training of, officers; and -Citizen complaint processes that treat complainants as adversaries. Under Title 42, U.S.C., Section 1997, the Department of Justice has the ability to initiate civ

One minute to tell Sen. Pryor to support equality? Dear Arkansas MoveOn member, The Supreme Court is getting ready to vote on the fate of two monumental marriage equality laws—California's discriminatory Proposition 8 and the Defense of Marriage Act—and possibly rule on same - sex marriage across the country.     As the Justices look around the country to get a sense of whether the country is ready to embrace marriage equality, right now they'd see   seven Senate Democrats, including your senator,  Mark Pryor , who have yet to  come out in support of marriage equality.   Seriously.  He is one of only seven. Every Senator who publicly supports equality makes it easier for the Supreme Court to do the same—so MoveOn members and our allies have been doing everything we can to pressure Senator Pryor   and the rest of the holdouts to support equal rights . And it's working.  Last week, the number of Senate Democratic holdouts was nine—and just in the past 48 hou

A former Bella Vista police officer who served jail time after shooting a suspect to death was sworn in as a police chief Monday night. When Coleman Brackney took over as Sulphur Springs’ chief, it was the first time Coleman put on a police uniform since he was fired from the Bella Vista Police Department in 2010. Coleman was convicted that year of negligent homicide and served about one month in jail. A district court ruled that Brackney was to blame for the shooting death of James Ahern following a high-speed pursuit in January 2010. His negligent homicide conviction was a misdemeanor, so Brackney was spared prison time. “I told the guys the day I left I would be back, and I told them it may take me a while because it was going to be a long fight,” Brackney told 5NEWS on Tuesday. “But I’m back.” Ahern’s family was awarded $20,000 after suing Brackney. His charge of negligent homicide was expunged, and a state board ruled Brackney could again serve as a police officer in

Color of Law Abuses U.S. law enforcement officers and other officials like judges, prosecutors, and security guards have been given tremendous power by local, state, and federal government agencies—authority they must have to enforce the law and ensure justice in our country. These powers include the authority to detain and arrest suspects, to search and seize property, to bring criminal charges, to make rulings in court, and to use deadly force in certain situations. Preventing abuse of this authority, however, is equally necessary to the health of our nation’s democracy. That’s why it’s a federal crime for anyone acting under “color of law” willfully to deprive or conspire to deprive a person of a right protected by the Constitution or U.S. law. “Color of law” simply means that the person is using authority given to him or her by a local, state, or federal government agency. The FBI is the lead federal agency for investigating color of law abuses , which include acts carr

REPORT # 2007-143797 IS THE LITTLE ROCK RIVER MARKET, "LAND OF THE MISFIT COPS"? Oh, yes. It has certainly become a "dumping ground" for cops in the dog house or just don't "fit in" anywhere else within the department. It would seem that it's been this way for sometime now, there is hope of that changing soon though. How do I know? Well, more to come on that. Let's just say that when you have invested the time and money to collect enough informative files, CD's, DVD's and so forth, you begin to see an undeniable and well documented pattern. E Pluribus Unum
