She is definitely incompetent and corrupt. With the unemployment rate where it is at it should not be a problem to hire ethical, non-felon police officers.

dilliqaf- The truth hurt does'nt it.I know just as much as you or the next person on this story and thats not much at all.Only what a couple haters have dished out.I have to be moron to think she is doing her job right? and why is that...is it because pine bluff have crime.L.R.,Lonoke,Conway every other city here have crime,so maybe all of the police chiefs need to be fired.These are Allegations against her that has not been proven so until then you stfu.Since you say "I pulled the race card" you didnt care to respond on the discrimination of her being a woman.It seems that all of Your focus is on race.

me501, pull the blinders off and put the race card back in your pocket, it isnt needed here. If you honestly feel that the chief is doing her job and doing it proficiently, then you truly are a bonified moron. But since you have your race card, and she is black, then you feel its race based. Think about this, there are several black officers complaining against her. Is that racial also? Its idiots like you that keep this racial bs breeding.

The upside of hiring a felon,they normaly already know how to use a gun.Over in a town near me,the Mayor is the problem.He has a criminal background,has been accused of being a child molester and hangs out with the Meth crowd.But hey,he is doing a good job as Mayor.

I think they need to do background checks on all law enforcement including elected sheriffs.

I don't have a problem with the Cheif being a woman,or a black woman.Most times when a woman does a job,it will be done to the best of her ability and there in lies the problem.The Cheifs abilities are not up to par with what is needed for a city the size of PB with all of its problems.I only hope the Mayor has another Girlfriend that will be more qualified.

I hope PB can get rid of it's Mayor and his hired Police Chief,It sounds like she would not make the grade as a KINDERGARTEN cop,the mayor got rid of the best chief they had and then hired her,enough said.
