Can anyone tell me who is Dirk Diggler?

No, but we can tell you who he/she isn't. Dirk is not Smallwood. Dirk is not Palmer. Dirk is alive and well, just like the MPD Enforcer 2.0.

The purpose of this blog is and will always be a place for officers to sound off about what is really going on with the Memphis Police Department. A place to publicly out all back channel deals and mistreatment of officers. We may take "breaks" at times to clear our collective heads and redirect our energy for the betterment of the officers.

There's no doubt about it. Memphis is in a bad state no matter how Gibbons and GODwin try to glorify the current climate. Any college kid that has had Criminal Justice 101 knows how the rate fluctuates in the media. One minute it is up, the next down. The full awake in CJ101 knows that the rate is steady. It's the amount of crime REPORTED that causes and ebb and flow.

Our classifications on R&Is cause the rate to constantly be misreported. Janikowski might as well be a janitor with all of the shit he has been shoveling.

***SIDE NOTE: We are no longer moderating comments. You will see trash talking and Jerry Springer like antics that are NOT condoned by the contributors.

New post.

Everyone wanted a new post. Here it is...........

Announcement.

We received the below e-mail in regards to a retired officer's status:

hello i am a former police officer in Memphis. I'm not sure how many older police officers read this blog, but if they do i was wanting to let them know that my father, Jason Morris Jr. , a retired Lt. is is the hospital with liver disease. it doesn't look good and just wondered if you would post this and keep him in your prayers.

Congratulations JD Sewer!

Well, JD Sewer squeeked out a win by one point last month to garner the first title for 2009. We are now taking nominations for February.

As a reminder, nominate someone that is worthy of this award. Just because someone has a cushy assignment, doesn't make them an asshole. There are plenty of assess in the MPD, obviously from the top down. When submitting your name, tell us why. These are not new rules. Submissions that do not contain details will be left out of the vote.
