She will do a great job as the next police chief. Did I say she? Yes I did.

True enough she has a tough job. The toughest job? Probably class room teacher or school social worker ... followed by city resdient- paying property taxes on artifically propped up property values to pay for reduced services and increased stadium facilities for billionaires.

Hope she cracks down on the gangs and criminal illegal aliens.

April 5, 2013 with another report of a payout for violent and criminal behavior on the part of the MPD. Chief Harteau has been with the deprtment a long time and she will likely change nothing. I saw a comment about them cracking down on violent street gangs. They should start by cleaning up their own gang. Just a bunch of thugs.
