Inconsistencies?

  • Buckeye officials now are focusing their police chief search on Phoenix police Cmdr. Frank Milstead, a finalist for the job.
  • Milstead's climb to top candidate comes after the town eliminated Ernest Brown from the running because of inconsistencies in his Chicago police background.
  • Top staff and interview panelists remained silent about what kind of irregularities they found in Brown's record that threw him out of the race.

    "What we were told (by Brown) and what we were seeing were two different things," said Scott Rounds, Buckeye's assistant town manager, who traveled to Chicago to visit Brown and tour his department in mid-July. "Through the process we found Mr. Brown doesn't fit the team."

We guess Arizona wasn't quite far enough.

damn he lost his home to foreclosure cause of the $50k pay cut he took in March?, that was quick and i guess Lt's pay is not enough to pay your mortgage with and wasnt that pretty fast!

This essentially applies to all of the exempt members who were demoted prior to being shown the door. They are all toast in the law enforcement community. Phat Phil hangs on the Chicago Police Memorial to retain any credibility he once had.

Old Ernie got caught up in his lies. And Unigue tries to bail him out. Non of our bosses are qualified to be police officials elsewhere. Real police departments don't have merit. look how Sheriff Dart had to clean up the Sheriffs police with our clout appointees, one pension wasn't enough, the dirty little secrets continued on the CCSPD, ex cpd trying to sleep around like they did on the cpd with their 19th ward beithches on the cpd, they tried the same on the county....

"Downtown" Ernie Brown, CPD retired, was the front runner for the new chief of police job in Buckeye, AZ, a growing town of 25,000 about 35 miles west of Phoenix.

However, after several Buckeye officials visited Chicago, "Downtown" was eliminated from consideration due to "inconsistencies" in his background.

Outside Illinois, Chicago CLOUT don't mean squat, Brown. As a bonus, the attractive young women of Buckeye will now remain safe.

It would take very little investigation to find out what a 2-faced POS Brown is. His personal life is a mess - between the multiple GF's, divorces, paternity suits, unpaid creditors, the foreclosure, lawsuits he has caused against the City for his poor judgment and his "close association" with former Alderwoman Troutman - why would any Department want to hire him. Chicago should have fired him years ago.

Downtown Ernie Brown says---

Here is my resume:

Deputy Superintendent CPD.
Good family man.
Strong values.
Well liked and respected by peers, subordinates, and superiors.
Great dancer.

Truth:

Demoted to Lieutenant.
Skirt chaser to the Nth degree.
No one liked him, only tolerated him because he was heavier than greased whale shit.
Great dancer--that one was true.

Maybe Phoenix found out how full of shit he was, like so many other bosses on the CPD.

Any boss worthy of being hired by an outside agency has already gone. Look at Cline's cohorts, the best they can do is another Chicago or Cook County spot and we know how much talent that takes. Zero.

Former Ald. Troutman Admits Taking Payoffs
Corruption Case Filed In 2007
CHICAGO (AP) ― A 17-year veteran of Chicago's City Council has pleaded guilty to taking payoff money and cheating on her taxes.

Former Ald. Arenda Troutman acknowledged Wednesday that she'd taken money for helping real estate developers in her South Side ward.

She pleaded guilty to mail fraud and tax fraud charges. Eleven other counts were dropped in exchange for her plea.

U.S. District Judge Ruben Castillo set December 3 for sentencing the 50-year-old Troutman, who lost her re-election bid last year after the charges became public.

Defense attorney Sam Adam Junior says other than the payoffs, Troutman had "an impeccable record" of working her way up after a poverty-stricken childhood "in the coal fields of West Virginia."

all u guys ragging on ernie brown have never worked for the man. you tell me how many m/1 exempts have ever put in m/2s for promotions and i am not talking about confused m/2s who have listened to too much rap music i am talking hardcore w/bs.
all you guys who come on here and talk about other male coppers because they chase skirts probably have no gf's or are to scared to talk to women in general.
Ernie brown is the police and takes care of his people.
last thing when i was in three we had an influx of m2 amd m4 officers this was not apprieciated by the 1's who worked in three and was stated so directly and inderectly. in more than one case ernie took these officers to the side and said dont worry about that bull sh!t keep doing what your doing and let these officer's know he was happy to have them there.
so get off the guys back because if you ever worked for him you would know he was a good boss despite his personal problems

Most of these posts are just illustrating the typical police mentality. Since most officers are miserable they enjoy when other people are miserable or fail. I dont care what color he is or who he fucks or tries to fuck. As far as being a boss he was way better than most. He liked workers and tried to take care of them no matter what color you were. That is all that matters to me as a P.O. Merit is a fact of life so deal with it. Its how the boss treats the troops after the promotion that matters.

I do know him personally, and yes, he can be a nice enough guy, but he has consistently been promoted through CLOUT, not ability, this is FACT.
