Some chief jobs get posted at the MMA website; and some are advertised in the papers. I think it's telling that the chief's job hasn't been posted. |

Emile, my friend - I was writing of "other communities" and not our own. No, Everett does have a history of inferior appointments because we like to keep the pool of candidates very, very small, to keep the competition low....in order to make sure that mayor's friends and families get those positions. That's the history of Everett.
I hope you and the pup are well on this very cold day. |

Thank you for your concern, Court, I had to buy two sets of hand warmers for him.
We will have much more to say about many more things very soon.
Please be patient.

Excuse me for my ignorance here but I see alot of cheering going on from those who are not actually familiar or involved in the goings on within the police department. I think its hard to judge what is best for the dept without knowing what the real story is. The reason I pose this... Word is that the majority of EPD officers are supporting someone else for chief? On a side note.. The crime rate has not actually declined in Everett. The current leaders of the EPD have found creative ways to doctor police records so it appears that crime has actually declined when in actuality it has risen.

Well, Kari, if that is the case, then it should be reported to some agency -- or better yet, call the newspapers. Do you work within the police department and know this for a fact? Is the new mayor aware of this information and that's why he wants to replace Mazzie? Who are the people doctoring the information?
Or is this more rumor and speculation on the part of people who want to see Mazzie gone -- like our former alderman from Ward 3 who still hold a grudge against Mazzie for the drug raid on his bar? |

I harbor no ill feelings towards Mazzie. If he is the right guy for the job then so be it. There are some troubling things that came to light recently and I merely wanted to hear if anyone else had similar experience. I am unsure if Hanlon is aware of them, or perhaps he would prefer not to bring a scandal to light?? Don't right know.  |

Being the Chief is more than a popularity contest. Some are always going to have oppositional and discipline issues with the Chief. Kari, that you state that the men are supporting someone else is not a surprise. Some guys always want the next chief around the corner. It wasn't long ago that they were complaining about Capt. Henry possibly getting the nod, and wanting Mazzie instead.
You also raise "troubling things" and the doctoring of records...without evidence. Where are these reports and what are these troubling things that could be scandalous? Inquiring minds want to know. |

Louie - are you suggesting that the chief is responsible for those drug overdoses? Actually, I support any postings that have evidence. Kari made some pretty hefty statements that deserve proof of some sort. |

Lets face it.. Everett PD command is hiding true crime from the public. The only reason the machete incident was made public was due to it taking place in broad daylight with witnesses. The funding for Gang control is there and available but Mazzie chooses not to use it. They are glossing over, hiding, misrepresenting and re-labeling incident reports so it appears the crime rate has gone down.  Gimme a break! |

Sooooooo........Kari,
Why did Hanlon extend the Chief's contract if these allegations are true?
Should have let the Chief go a few weeks ago....if the allegations are true...
The answer is that Hanlon has no idea what to do.....are we back in Vermont again?
Kari, please tell us some Vermont stories....

Don't forget that Hanlon also stated in the Globe that he hasn't investigated the Police Department and he doesn't intend to. If there's such rampant corruption and illegal altering of documents going on, isn't it incumbent upon the Mayor to demand an investigation? |

Kari - you seem to have an ax to grind. All kinds of allegations and nothing to back it up with. |
