As I have commented before, the whistleblowers act fails to protect the police who try and bring to light corruption in the Police Bureau. I too was fired from the City of Portland, due to the fact that I had filed a complaint against a police detective. My case has been profiled in the Portland Tribune, The Mercury and the Oregonian. The amount of corruption in the City is a sad commentary to our government. If you make waves, they will make problems for you and make it impossible for you to work in a safe atmosphere. The amount of cover up is also deplorable. My job with the City was made impossible to conduct because of the retaliation against me due to a complaint that was valid. It seems unimaginable that this type of behavior and retaliation would exist in this day and age, but sadly it does. It seems surreal that these government employees can make up lies about another employee just to try and hide the type of corruption that exists and is constantly swept under the carpet. Fortunately, I won my unemployment claim against the City, and intent to pursue a suit against the City. This issue has been kept alive by the vigilance of groups that strive for fairness and protection of the citizen such as Dan Hindleman's Cop Watch, the Northwest Constitutional Civil Rights, Eileen Luna-Firebaugh and those members of the Citizens Review Committee who have stood up for citizens like myself by placing themselves also in the line of scrutiny for speaking out.
