June 12, 2007 Dearborn Police Motor Carrier Unit Completes “Operation Road Check 2007”

DEARBORN, Mich. – On June 7th, the Dearborn Police Motor Carrier Unit completed “Operation Road Check 2007’. During this three day annual event, held simultaneously in the United States, Mexico and Canada, approximately 75 trucks were stopped in the city of Dearborn. The Motor Carrier Unit distributed over 40 free Truck-Driver Guidebooks and other CMV safety/education materials and issued over 20 verbal/written warnings and 54 citations to violators.

This year, the Motor Carrier Unit implemented a joint operation with Melvindale PD Motor Carrier and shared each other’s expertise and resources.

As a result of this program:

. 18 vehicles were taken “Out of Service” for serious safety violations and or unqualified drivers.

. 2 vehicles were taken “Out of Service” for serious hazardous material violations.

. 1 vehicle was impounded as a result of serious safety violations.

The Motor Carrier Unit will continue to participate in such cooperative programs throughout the year. The program provides a “snapshot” of the trucking industry, and specifically, the status of truckers in our area. Unit Supervisor, Sgt. Michael B. Delaney, stated: “I believe the aggressive year-round enforcement by the Unit, combined with programs such as this; have a positive impact on the safety of the motoring public”. * * * * *

Dearborn Police Motor Carrier Unit Winner of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) 2006 National Law Enforcement Challenge for Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety

Dearborn, Mi. — The Dearborn Police Department’s Motor Carrier Unit is the winner of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) 2006 National Law Enforcement Challenge for Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety. The Dearborn Police Department was the only police agency to win the award in the commercial vehicle category and only one of two Michigan agencies to win an award overall. This achievement is truly a great honor for the City of Dearborn. The Law Enforcement Challenge is a competition between similar sizes and types of law enforcement agencies. It recognizes and rewards the best overall traffic safety programs in the United States. The areas of concentration include efforts to enforce laws and educate the public about occupant protection, impaired driving, and speeding. Departments submit an application (usually in a three ring or presentation binder) which documents their agency's efforts and effectiveness in these areas. The winning safety programs are those that combine officer training, public information and enforcement to reduce crashes and injuries within its jurisdiction. Capt. Robert R. Powers, Jr.,Commander of the Michigan State Police Traffic Safety Division, stated, “I am personally very appreciative of the leadership and proactive enforcement activities in the commercial vehicle arena that your agency has consistently shown. As a result of the efforts of Dearborn Police and other law enforcement agencies across the state, Michigan currently enjoys one of the best truck safety records in our nation”.

The Dearborn Police Motor Carrier Unit will be recognized and presented with an award during the IACP Annual Conference in New Orleans, LA in October 2007.

The Dearborn Police Motor Carrier Unit was most recently recognized as winner of the 2006 Michigan Association of Chiefs of Police “Award for Excellence in Commercial Vehicle Safety” at an award ceremony in Grand Rapids, MI. The Motor Carrier Unit, under the direction of Patrol Commander Jeffrey Geisinger, is staffed by: Unit OIC Sgt. Michael B. DeLaney, Cpl. Michael E. Nelson, Ofc. Christopher A. Brayman and Ofc. Timothy T. Stacy.

Mexico to reorganize training of all state and federal police chiefs - 06/29/2007 00:51 http://english.pravda.ru/news/world/29-06-2007/94267-training-0

Mexico would overhaul training of all state and federal police chiefs Thursday as it seeks international help to fight organized crime. Authorities recently removed the nation's top federal police officers and are forcing them to prove they will not be corrupted by organized crime. Now, more than 1,000 high-ranking state and federal officers will be required to complete a yearlong course in crisis control, law enforcement techniques and the English language - as Mexico aims to work closely with U.S. and European police - said Genaro Garcia Luna, secretary of public safety.

The courses begin Aug. 13 and will be taught partly by experts from the United States, Canada, Germany, France and Spain. "For the first time in the history of (Mexico's) police, all new chiefs ... will be selected and trained using a uniform criteria that meets international standards," Garcia Luna said.

"Putting the best police Mexico has" in the top posts is the only way to succeed at combating organized crime, he said.

On Monday, Garcia Luna announced that 284 top federal officers would be forced to undergo a "trust test" to remain on the job, an extreme measure to guarantee the honesty of the country's high-ranking police.

The screening, which will be conducted periodically throughout officers' careers, includes anti-doping exams, polygraphs and psychological reviews. It also investigates acquaintances, friends and family, and checks on whether an officer's assets are in line with earnings.

Mexico's police forces have been rife with officers working for the drug cartels. All participants in the yearlong course first must pass the screening and those who fail polygraph and anti-doping exams will be let go, Garcia Luna said.

The measures are part of a new strategy by the Mexican government to rehabilitate police rather than simply boot them.

In the past, authorities have often purged police forces in attempts to eliminate corruption, only to see many of the fired officers go to work full time for organized crime - or to find work with other police agencies due to poor information-sharing.

Garcia Luna said Mexico wants to strengthen ties with police in Colombia, the United States and especially Europe, which has seen an increase in drugs from Latin America. Mexico is seeking more U.S. aid in a nationwide crackdown on drug gangs, and Washington has long complained about corruption hindering anti- smuggling efforts in Mexico.

But Garcia Luna says the overhaul is in response to Mexicans' own frustration with crime and corruption, and has nothing to do with U.S. pressure. Since taking office in December, President Felipe Calderon has sent 24,000 troops to regions plagued by drug gangs, which have been linked to more than 1,300 deaths so far this year.

Early Thursday, a 44-year-old woman was gunned down at a Cancun residence and her body was left with a message from alleged drug traffickers, police said. The death appeared to be a settling of accounts between gangs, authorities said.

In April, the government of the northern state of Nuevo Leon arrested 141 state officers, accusing them of working for the powerful Gulf cartel along the Texas border. And in Tijuana earlier this year, soldiers patrolled the streets while local police were disarmed following accusations they protected smugglers. White supremacist gang indicted for murders http://kob.com/article/stories/S126682.shtml?cat=519

Owen Puckett, Jr. is the leader of the New Mexico chapter of the Aryan Brotherhood. A federal grand jury has handed down three indictments implicating several members of a white supremacist prison gang in two murders and a plot to gun down a former New Mexico sheriff’s deputy.

Nineteen people have been indicted. They are either members of the Aryan Brotherhood or associates. Seven of the indicted are either currently behind bars or served time in New Mexico prisons. The leader of the New Mexico chapter of the Aryan Brotherhood is Owen Puckett, Jr. Police say he hatched a plan to murder former Otero County Sheriff’s Deputy Bill Anders.

In December 2004 Anders and partner Bob Hedman got into a shootout with white supremacist Earl Flippen in Cloudcroft. Hedman died in the gunfight. Moments later, Anders opened fire on a handcuffed Flippen, putting a bullet through his heart.

The first indictment lists 12 people investigators say were involved in the Anders murder plot. The second indictment is connected to the murder of Henry George and the beating of a man who had information about the crime. George’s skull was found in Sandoval County four years after he was reported missing.

Investigators say George met his killers while serving time in the Bernalillo County Detention Center on drug charges.

The third investigation and indictment surrounds the shooting death of Causey, New Mexico ranger Jimmy “Bo” Chunn. Detectives believe the gang’s motive was hundreds of gallons of anhydrous ammonia at the ranch. It’s a key ingredient for making methamphetamine – a huge source of money for the Aryan Brotherhood.

The indictments also list several members of the Texas chapter of the Aryan Brotherhood. Investigators say since the New Mexico gang is still loosely organized, local members went to Texas for guidance and approval in the Anders murder plot.

HOWARD COUNTY Officer's Death Leads to Policy Changes http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/30/AR2007063000770.html Departments Across Md. Halt Practice of Police Outside Cruisers Hailing Speeders By Raymond McCaffrey Washington Post Staff Writer, Sunday, July 1, 2007; Page C05 A Howard County police officer killed while working a traffic detail is being honored in a way that goes far beyond the wearing of black bands of mourning.

Less than two weeks after Officer Scott Wheeler's death, numerous police agencies have discontinued the type of detail in which Wheeler, 31, was participating when he was struck standing outside his vehicle as he tried to stop a car for speeding. Maryland State Police, Maryland Transportation Authority Police and law enforcement agencies in Anne Arundel and Howard counties have largely suspended the practice that involves officers stepping out of their cars to wave down and stop cars.

"We will continue to look at whether or not we should reinstate the practice on roadways with lower speed limits," said Greg Shipley, a Maryland State Police spokesman. "We will not return to using this procedure on the interstates. There's no debate on that."

State Police Superintendent Col. Terrence B. Sheridan had ordered a review of "stationary stopping teams" when he took command June 6, Shipley said, but the policy decision wasn't made until June 22 -- the day of Wheeler's funeral. Shipley said he was unaware of how many other police agencies were following suit, but he said: "I'm sure everybody's taking a look at it."

Police in Prince George's and Montgomery counties said that even though they have not changed their policies concerning roadside traffic enforcement, they are making efforts to train officers to be as safe as possible when making stops.

And since last year, Montgomery police have been advising officers to approach cars from the passenger side only, said Lucille Baur, a department spokeswoman.

In Virginia, state police officers stand by the side of traffic ramps when pulling over cars in violation of high- occupancy rules for commuter lanes, but they don't engage in the practice when stopping speeders, said Sgt. Terry Licklider, a police spokesman. "We have never been trained in that, and we do not do that," Licklider said.

Anne Arundel had followed the practice until June 22, when County Executive John R. Leopold (R) issued a directive to discontinue the "step out and stop policy" pending a 30-day review, said Cpl. Mark L. Shawkey, a police spokesman.

On Thursday, Maryland Transportation Authority Police suspended the policy of officers making traffic stops outside their vehicles. Cpl. Jonathan Green said the department is reviewing the policy to determine "what's the safest thing for motorists and officers."

Because Howard police were preparing for Wheeler's funeral, the department's policy change did not take effect until this week, police spokeswoman Sherry Llewellyn said. Wheeler was struck June 16 while hailing speeders on Route 32 in Savage.

"We were back to work this week, and the chief directed our deputy chief to issue an e-mail department-wide that they should not be participating in stop teams enforcement," Llewellyn said.

Police had exercised caution when employing stop teams, she said, making sure that officers wore reflective vests and that they worked on roads "without visual impediment," such as curbs and hills. Nonetheless, investigators believe the 24-year-old woman driving the car that struck Wheeler did not see him in the roadway.

He suffered serious head injuries and died two days later at Maryland Shock Trauma Center. An investigation continues, and no charges had been filed by late Friday. Howard police, however, will continue to step into traffic in residential areas and school zones where the speed limit is 35 mph or lower.

"The number-one complaint we receive from our citizens is speeding in residential communities and school zones," Llewellyn said. "So the current status of our stop teams operations allow the officers to continue to conduct enforcement in school zones and neighborhoods, if necessary." OAKLAND POLICE OFFICER KILLED IN AN OFF-DUTY MOTORCYLE CRASH LAST UPDATED: 07-16-07 AT 9:22AM HTTP://WWW.CBS8.COM/STORIES/STORY.96646.HTML

CONCORD, Calif. (AP) -- An Oakland police officer has been killed in an off-duty motorcycle crash. Police say 39-year-old Stan Mock was killed Saturday when he hit a tree while riding his personal motorcyle in Concord. Mock was found by a passerby around 5:30 Saturday evening near Cal State East Bay's Concord campus. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Concord police are investigating the crash. An autopsy to determine the exact cause of death is expected to be conducted later this week. Mock joined the Oakland Police Department in 1998.

Off-duty policeman killed in accident CONCORD: Popular member of Oakland force dies after his personal motorcycle struck a tree By Kristin Bender MEDIANEWS STAFF Article Launched: 07/16/2007 03:03:29 AM PDT http://www.contracostatimes.com/ci_6386397?source=rss&nclick_check=1

A Oakland police officer was killed Saturday while riding his personal motorcycle in Concord. Stan Mock, 39, was off-duty and riding near the entrance to Cal State East Bay's Concord campus when he struck a tree, Concord police Cpl. Scott Wagner said.

Mock, who lived in Clayton and was married with two small children, was discovered by passers-by, who called authorities at 5:28 p.m. Saturday, police said. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Concord police are continuing to investigate the accident, and an autopsy should be conducted later this week.

Bob Valladon, president of the Oakland Police Officers Association, said Mock, who joined the force in 1998, had been on the walking beat in Chinatown for at least three years and was well-liked by merchants and residents. "The residents of Chinatown are really going to miss him down there," Valladon said.

Walter Chinn, co-founder of the Asian Advisory Committee on Crime, a 21-year-old nonprofit group, and the group's youth component, the Asian Youth Services Committee, said Mock, who spoke Chinese, was an asset to the Asian community because he understood the language and the culture.

Man charged in off-duty police officer's death http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-070715officer-killed,1,784292.story?track=rss&ctrack=1&cset=true

By Liam Ford and Emma Graves Fitzsimmons Tribune staff reporters Published July 15, 2007, 8:33 PM CDT Chicago Police Officer Wayne Smith Jr., killed in a crash over the weekend while riding his motorcycle to pick up a birthday gift for his daughter, never said no when a friend or family member needed a hand with something. On Sunday, his family gathered at his Washington Heights-area home to help his wife, Toria Renee Rivers- Smith, and their three children cope with Smith's death, as a Cook County judge set bail at $300,000 for the driver who authorities say hit the off-duty officer's motorcycle.

Manuel Puga, 22, was drunk and had cocaine and marijuana in his system when he hit Smith's bike with his sport-utility vehicle late Friday in Bridgeport, Assistant State's Atty. Tracy Senica told Judge Raymond Myles on Sunday. Smith was riding his Harley-Davidson south on Ashland Avenue when Puga, who was driving north, made a left turn in front of him at Robinson Street, just north of 32nd Street, about 11:20 p.m. Friday, police said.

Puga of the 3700 block of West 77th Place is charged with reckless homicide and aggravated driving under the influence, both felonies, as well as five misdemeanors, including driving without having been issued a license, police said.

Smith, 34, was driving home from work on his way to pick up a birthday gift for his youngest child, Brille, who turned 4 on Saturday, sister-in-law Michelle Rivers said Sunday. Family members remembered Smith as someone who always entered his home smiling, eager to greet his three children after a day of work. He went out of his way to be helpful to everyone he knew, Rivers said.

"He never had the word 'no' come out of his mouth," Rivers said, as family members and friends stood on the front stoop of the Smiths' home. "He would help you at the drop of a hat."

Smith, an 11-year police officer and native Chicagoan, had worked several assignments for the department, including in the public housing section and his current post in the narcotics and gang investigations section. Motorcycles and cars were his hobby, and he often spent time detailing his cars and maintaining his bikes.

Smith's family had not yet made arrangements for his funeral, after having to celebrate Brille's birthday Saturday under the pall of her father's death. Rivers took Brille to a restaurant for a small party, then they returned home for cake and ice cream. Rivers said that as of early Sunday afternoon, Smith's wife had had nothing to eat or drink since his death.

"You've got a wife who has to come home every day and doesn't hear that key through the door for him. You've got kids calling for a father who isn't ever going to come back," Rivers said. "You've got a daughter who keeps looking up at the sky, talking about how she wants to go to heaven. She doesn't understand. It's unfair."

Further details of the crash emerged at Sunday's bond hearing.

Following the crash, Puga and a passenger in the SUV ran off, but witnesses followed them and helped responding officers catch them, prosecutors said. In a videotaped statement, Puga admitted that he was driving the car, Senica said. The passenger was still hospitalized with injuries Sunday afternoon, said Puga's lawyer, Noel Johnson.

In addition to Puga having marijuana and cocaine in his system, police found a plastic bag filled with what appeared to be marijuana in one of his pockets and an empty beer can in the back seat, Senica said. Puga has not been convicted of any crimes in the past, Senica said. Court records show that Puga has had several misdemeanor arrests in Chicago dating back to 2002, when he was arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct.

In that case and several others, including a marijuana possession arrest in March, charges against Puga were dropped, according to court records. In a misdemeanor assault arrest in 2002, charges were dropped because the complaining witness did not show up to court. In arguing for a lower bond Sunday, Johnson said Puga is the father of two young children. He and his fiance live with his parents, and he is a lifelong Chicagoan, she said. His fiance, Esmerelda Lopez, burst into tears as the charges were read, saying as she left the hearing that Puga would never intentionally hurt someone. "It was an accident," said Lopez, 21. "He's not like that. He's a good father and son." Smith's family members said they hope the crash will lead to stricter driving laws.

"He hasn't even had the chance to grow with his kids yet, and he won't come back anymore," Rivers said. "And the only thing that we can do is keep his memory alive, through his kids, through pictures. Don't let it die down. We, as citizens, need to get behind these laws and go after these people."

French police officer kills man, 2 kids, then himself The Associated Press Article Launched: 07/14/2007 12:00:00 AM PDT http://www.dailybulletin.com/ci_6370631

MALAKOFF, France - A police officer killed his 11-year-old twins and a fellow officer Friday before turning his gun on himself at his Paris home, officials said.

The killings occurred at a gendarme compound that includes officers' housing at Malakoff, on the southern edge of the French capital. Gendarmes carry out policing functions, but under the Defense Ministry.

The killing was apparently linked to a "personal conflict" between the two officers, said State Prosecutor Philippe Courroye.

The exact order of events was unclear. Courroye said the most likely scenario was that the officer, whose identity was not made public, fatally shot his superior officer and then killed his 11-year-old twins, a boy and a girl, before killing himself.

The shooter's body was found at the foot of a stairwell on the ground floor of his apartment building, while the other three bodies were found in the entryway of his apartment, Courroye told reporters.

The gendarmes' central press service said the twins' mother was at work at the time.

President Nicolas Sarkozy went to the police compound soon afterward, along with Defense Minister Herve Morin and Interior Minister Michele Alliot-Marie.

The prosecutor said the officer used his personal weapon in the killings and that he had received psychiatric treatment.

The officer's service gun had been seized from him in September 2006 because of "psychological problems," said gendarme spokeswoman Capt. Olivia Poupot. She said the officer and the colleague he shot, both 43, had had "differences," but did not elaborate.

Gen. Gerard Remy of the gendarme service said an internal investigation was under way into the incident, which he said was the first of its kind in the gendarme service. July 15, 2007 Longwood officer killed in I-4 accident ( News from Florida)

By SCOTT WYLAND Staff Writer

A Longwood police officer was struck and killed by a sports utility vehicle while he was tending his disabled car early Saturday on Interstate 4, Florida Highway Patrol investigators said.

Sgt. Karl Strohsal, 58, was a head investigator for Longwood police and lived in DeLand. He was driving his unmarked car home from work when he hit an I-4 guardrail, leaving his car disabled in the center eastbound lane a half-mile from Saxon Boulevard, the FHP said. Strohsal clicked on his flashing blue lights, but the angle of his car made it hard for passing drivers to see it, the FHP report said.

Strohsal was standing in front of his car about 1:30 a.m. when he saw an SUV coming at him. He tried to run to the inside shoulder, but the driver swerved to the left lane apparently to avoid the stalled car and struck Strohsal, the report said, citing witnesses. The SUV's driver, Dayne Love, 21, of New Jersey was not injured. A trooper drew blood from Love for testing, and charges are pending the results of toxicology tests, the FHP said. http://www.news-journalonline.com/NewsJournalOnline/News/Local/newWEST01071507.htm

Lawmakers to question prison officials about guard's homicide The Associated Press Article Launched: 07/16/2007 10:41:56 AM MDT http://www.sltrib.com/ci_6387726?source=rss

Posted: 10:38 AM- State lawmakers plan to question prison officials Wednesday about the death of a guard who was shot while accompanying an inmate to a medical appointment. "What kind of overall policies do you have with transportation? How do you define who a high-risk individual is?" said Sen. Jon Greiner, R-Ogden, a member of the Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Committee.

"I don't know that Corrections owes us an explanation," he said. "Corrections should be given some concerns by each of the legislators." Stephen Anderson, 60, was shot in the head and the chest with his own gun June 25 while trying to stop Curtis Allgier from escaping from a University of Utah clinic, police said.

Allgier, 27, faces eight charges, including aggravated murder, which could bring the death penalty. The head of the agency, Tom Patterson, said he may not be able to answer all questions. "We don't want to compromise the criminal investigation and the prosecution," he said. Some policies have changed.

"We immediately went to a two-person transport on every inmate regardless of risk factor," Patterson said. "That would be two officers escorting every inmate." Another possible change: bringing doctors to the prisons instead of transporting inmates to clinics.

Greiner, who also is the Ogden police chief, said Allgier had threatened one of his officers. He wonders why the prisoner was escorted only by one guard. "I don't understand their operation well enough to be a critic, but I do know this particular individual was a big concern to this police chief," Greiner said. "At some point, when all the things are done, I might ask some very pointed questions."
