As a former WPD officer from 70"s, it bothers me greatly to see my former department to take such a low road. Where is the chain of responsibility ? Who actually should take responsibility in overseeing the management of WPD ?. It falls on the public. We the people should become the voice, force the town fathers to take control. If the people refuse to act on such conduct of law enforcement, this cancer will continue to grow, and essentially this effects each one of us. It is time that the Town of Westfield appoints a Superintendent of Police that can oversee the entire operation. The Chief and staff will answer to the Super. Along with the Super, he creates a staff of volunteers outside of the department to hear such complaints against<br />officers and the department. The police committee should have the power to hear complaints against any member, supervisory or otherwise and have the power to take whatever action is necessary to remedy the situation. The department should have an IA division, monitored by the Super and the Police Committee. The committee should actually be part of the community with NO POLITICAL INFLUENCE.<br />This is where each member must also run a on fine line. Prior to any appointment, each member must actually be immunized from such political and department influence. I do not feel at this point that turning the police department over to the prosecutors office is fair to the general public. In stead, the Mayor and council should move forward and select a Super that has the integrity and stamina <br />to move forward without such outside influence. If no one is guarding the hen house, who is going to protect who here. This is not rocket science, if you have an existing problem, well fix it. Now, to the Town of Westfield, take the lead here ! show the public that it is time that you take control, professionally and diplomatically. Start your search for a Super and Police Committee. Restore the integrity and image of the Police Department.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9092698870812368405.post-15961402080068805142010-12-14T11:56:35.507-05:002010-12-14T11:56:35.507-05:00It certainly appears that from reading this memo a...It certainly appears that from reading this memo a crime was committed based on a investigation by the Chief of Police. So why 1. wasnt someone arrested or disciplined and 2.if the Chief and Captain Wayman covered up for this John Rowe, their friend why didnt someone report this to the County for the crimes? Sounds like my Police Department has a whole lot more problems than I thought.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9092698870812368405.post-52835547008666341992010-12-10T14:27:16.305-05:002010-12-10T14:27:16.305-05:00No Biometric hand reader at all anymore?

Wow, honor system in 2010 for this department.. how come other departments mandatory have to scan in and have for years officers and superior officers and Westfield does not.. beats me.<br /><br />I wish I knew what happened to the "Chief's" Exam given last December, for $40 dollars a person to take the test and over 100 applicants and all anyone heard back was that the town was "On a Hold" for hiring due to budgetary issues. This department took in over $4,000 for a test that they told takers they would actually-probably-maybe only hiring 1 or 2 from the process. Has anyone been hired from that test? When will the takers hear about the 2nd step in the process?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9092698870812368405.post-83505003550564404472010-12-10T13:59:03.527-05:002010-12-10T13:59:03.527-05:00What's Nicole going to do now that she doesn&#...What's Nicole going to do now that she doesn't have acces to the "delete" button on this website?

The Parizeau and Wayman enterprise must be held accountable for their actions. Its high time the UCPO or AG Office steps in. It is obvious that the Mayor and Gildea are not going to derail thier own careers and admit to all these wrong doings under their watch.

Within the policy it states" Where a preliminary investigation indicates the possibility of a criminal act on the part of the<br />subject officer,the county prosecutor must be notified immediately. No further action should be taken, including the filing of charges against the officer, until directed by the county prosecutor." So I ask why didnt the Chief adhere to the policy, why didnt the two Captains who solely conduct major internal affairs investigations contact the proper authorties, The answer is the Thief is the Chief and Captain Waymans friend. They have covered for him for years.....John Rowe.
