Check out the bill paying practices of Sgt. Sonny Jones in Easton. Nothing like the good old public web site of Case Search, Only in queen annes county, somebody with pending charges as a defendant should have their police powers suspended. Different rules for different people, WOW!

I think that calling these police "punk cops" is showing nothing but dis-respect for the people that will show up to protect YOU.. and put their lives on the line everyday.. BTW you say that you are for the people, but you sue for 3 million dollars because you got your feelings and hurt and your car towed/crushed? You should have picked up and paid for your car from impound then. A lawsuit like that definatly dosent sound like a "for the people" kinda guy. Who's going to pay in the long run..the QAC taxpayers/"people" bingo... calling police, any of them, punk cops and nazis and name calling is the most disrespectful thing you can do. The deputys I've meet are hard working guys, and are just trying to make a honest living like everyone else. The police meet 90% of the low life scum thats out there, pete you should know being retired. I didnt vote for gary, voted for charles. But you cant complain about who's in charge when gary was voted in. Its the american way. ;D

moose..........If the cop is a good guy doing his job that's great. If he is a punk cop so be it. The idea is to weed out the bad cops before they do harm to the citizens.

I totally concur. I haven't had any personal bad experiences with any police officers over here in over 16 years -- of course, I haven't done anything to have a bad experience -- and hopefully won't..... Moose hit it right on, they are hard working guys and are just trying to make an honest living like the rest of us.
I did vote for Gary. I like Gary very much. I realize there are those of you who have your problems with him, but he still remains a favorite person of mine. On that I remain solid.
And this does not infer any form of disrespect to you, Pete. I may not agree with your tactics used against Pipken, et. al., however, I do very much admire your convictions. That's a trait I admire in anyone. Just wanted to pass that on.

Sequel............My Friend. Please tell me what tactics you would have used?..........The Senator used the power of his elected position to have the MSP illegally try to run me out of business. This was stated by Capt. Marty Knight MSP in front of 4 witnesses......What would you have done my friend?

I find it difficult to warm up to someone trying to sell themself on me by pointing out particulars on how bad everyone else is. And frankly, the story I heard today on the radio sounded quite a bit stretched.
Mudslinging is not a good way to come out of the chute, IMO. I know nothing of the department or politics in this county - but I know what turns me off of a candidate.
My 2 cents.

What did you hear, please tell us! I heard Pete call into WBAL and speak with Ron Smith. I don't recall the call verbatim, but in a nutshell Pete indicated that his son and wife moved into a house. Shortly afterwards the police came there looking for an ex-resident. Pete's son produced ID - the police were satisfied and left. Then they returned weeks/months later - same deal. But Pete indicated that on this trip his daughter-in-law caught one of the policemen outside her window, peeking in and watching her breastfeed. I'm skeptical.

Al.......I reported to the public a true story of Police misconduct. How is that mudslinging?............Ron Smith was talking about a raid on the wrong house conducted by Balto. Police. Not only did the Police raid the wrong house. They destroyed the front door, cuffed the husband and wife, and embarrassed these innocent citizens in front of all their neighbors. The incident occurred several weeks ago and the cops still haven't repaired, or paid for the damage they caused. If I'm elected Sheriff in 2010 two things will happen if my Deputies do what these cops did in Balto.. 1- Find out why they went to the wrong house. A sworn affidavit with your probable in detail must be presented to a Judge to obtain the warrant. So why did they go to the wrong house? They're either stupid, or they lied on the affidavit. If they lied they will not be working for Q.A.Co....2- I will make an official apology for the incident, and have the door repaired even if it comes out of my pocket.

At least Pete isn't afraid to speak his mind and what is going on around him, like some others candiates that won't speak unless it DIRECTLY works to their political advantage. Or isn't only worried about smiling for the newspaper every chance they get! I guess we need to continue this issue in the Pete for Sheriff Forum, because this is getting off the initial topic of this forum room!

Pete, I haven't been ignoring your post. I've been pondering. I honestly don't know exactly what I would have done, but I can assure you I would have explored all avenues, as well. If it did come down to dirt-meet-dirt, I'm not above that either, as sometimes that's what it takes to get your point across. I do know I would have gone to my most "creative" contacts and friends, bounced the situation off of them, and listened to what they would suggest. However, ultimately, I would have made my own decision on how to proceed -- and proceed I most certainly would have.
I also would have searched out legal counsel, who could cut through the extraneous garbage and slide a knife directly into the heart of the matter -- of course, one who would consider pro bono would be easier on the pocket.....
In reading other posts, I would have to say at this point that I agree with funnel from a logical standpoint. However, this situation appears far removed from anything remotely close to logical. Seems to be emotional-based and highly charged and it's not about me, it's about you, as you've chosen to post it here on this forum. Thus, the responses. I do not know all the facts, have not heard both, or multiple sides, and I do not sit as a fact-finding tribunal -- although the thought of being so in this case is intriguing.
One thought that's bothering me is what actually precipitated this entire situation? What started it? Not whose fault it is, just what action, word, deed, actually put the ball in motion to escalate to this degree?
What you've been stating, going on the assumption of truth, would enrage anyone. It is gut wrenching and luckily, and hopefully, what you did is all you did. So based on that, your choice was the use of a swastika and public humiliation in return. I can understand that. I can understand you made a personal decision on how to respond. With every action comes a consequence -- whether it be a good one or a bad one. Swastika's cut through the very heart of most people -- I personally ache inside when I think of that d**nable Holocaust, the ungodly pain and suffering, and abuse millions of men, women, and children suffered. And I will always hope Hitler rots in hell for eternity over it.
Given that thought, that's why I don't think I would have used the swastika -- out of respect for those countless others who suffered so horribly -- not because it was a cruel thing to do to Pipken, if, indeed, the situation warranted it, as you have stated.
I don't know what else to say.....

Sequel......The problem started when the Sheriff pointed out my neighbors as the culprits to the Burglary, and $22,000.00 vandalism of my home. The incompetence, the arrogance, and the corruption in the system is the real problem.
I used the swastika out of respect for the Nazi victims. No way should we, as a nation of free people, allow any of our elected officials to use Nazi tactics on our citizens. However, my mistake was assuming that the average citizen had the courage to stand up for what's right. When I produce my evidence to the people who are supposedly outraged to my use of the swastika they tuck tail and run when they see I'm up against the heavy weights. God Bless The Constitution and The United States.

Back to the original matter of the thread... Pete, I just read in your "Pete Richter For Sheriff" thread that you would (and please Father forgive me for not quoting verbatim) "try not to leave the punk kid with a record"...That sounds more than likely what the 'Punk Cop in QA County did to the deviant teens that were allegedly speed racing in front of a grocery store.

adaml.........What type of Sheriff are the Deputies looking for in your opinion?.............I always liked the boss who learned his trade on the street, had a open door policy, was fair to his men, used common sense, believed in God, stood his ground, and who insisted on justice when the law needed to be enforced. This may be considered old fashion by some, but that's my kind of boss.

This may be considered old fashion by some, but that's my kind of boss. Lets see: A sheriff who is a leader and not a follower who will go out in the field and work with his deputies. A sheriff who will have a command staff that has worked their way up the ranks and not one who kissed a$$ to get where they are at. Also a command staff that goes out and works in the community, not a staff that pushes papers all day and goes to a community meeting once in a blue moon. A sheriff who will stand up for his deputies through hel- or high water if his deputies are in the clear. A sheriff who will give his deputies reliable patrol vehicles and not worry about what him and his campaign buddies getting new trucks. A sheriff who is not worried about always smiling for the camera and only worried about getting elected next election. A sheriff that is going to KEEP HIS WORD on what he says he is going to do! Most of all, a sheriff with INTEGRITY, ETHICS, and MORALS!
