Alamogordo Police Chief Brian Peete believes it had something to do with a letter he sent to the city commission, detailing complaints against the city manager and the city attorney.“The letter was generally written, a summarization of all the things that I had saw that were my concerns hoping to address them at the lowest level possible. And I wrote it with the expectation that there may have been some engagement from the commission,” said Peete. Peete sent the letter in December. In it, he claims there is a culture of retaliation, rampant unprofessional behavior and negligent leadership within the city manager’s office. He also says there are serious financial issues with the use of city funds. Now, he’s considering his legal options.https://www.krqe.com/news/new-mexico/alamogordo-police-chief-discusses-sudden-suspension/KVIA2019/11/04 Alamogordo police chief abruptly quits amid on-going lawsuit against the city.

A statement from the city announcing Brian Peete's immediate resignation didn't cite a reason for him stepping down -- but in a lawsuit filed against the city over the summer, he alleged wrongdoing by a city administrator and violations of the New Mexico Whistleblower Protection Act. Peete contends he was suspended for about a month at the start of this year as retaliation for sending a letter to city commissioners outlining what he called illegal and improper conduct by the now-former city manager.https://kvia.com/news/new-mexico/2019/11/04/alamogordo-police-chief-abruptly-quits-amid-on-going-lawsuit-against-the-city/Perez, DominiqueAlbuquerque.

Officer.Real Crimes Excerpt: (Later became APD Police Chief.) “The APD Intelligence Unit, under the supervision of Sgt. Joseph Polisar, was accused of illegally creating and maintaining secret dossiers on innocent political figures. The only possible use for such dossiers would be to exert influence and pressure on those politicians. When the existence of the dossiers became known, they were burned to prevent their inspection. Sgt. Polisar was subsequently elevated to Chief of Police” 10/1/87: Former Chief Justice William Riordan, the City’s first independent councilor, found that the APD Intelligence Unit, under the supervision of APD Sgt.

On August 24, 2004 a court awarded Jimmie Marshall, a 58 year old Black man $580,000 for police brutality claims he brought against Porter and the City of Hobbs. Specifically, Porter took a blood sample from him without his permission and without a warrant following a Dec. 26, 1996, traffic stop. Marshall claimed Porter only tried to stop him after determining Marshall was black and then used a racial slur during the arrest -- a claim Porter denied. The jury awarded Marshall $390,000 in compensatory and punitive damages for Porter's actions (the remainder was for the liability of another officer's actions).[more]http://brownwatch.squarespace.com/police-brutality-watch/2005/1/3/hobbs-police-beat-down-another-black-man-cop-with-racist-brutality-past-is-the-arresting-officer.htmlPressburg, Charles Lake Arthur.
