the message I'm getting loud and clear is that Hales really has no control over the PPB, nor have any other recent mayors...

meanwhile, in other news, jarhead is an ass.

Outrageous that PPB has released arrest records that include phone #'s and addresses, adding to the pain and suffering the taxpayers are about to compensate activists for... in a case where all charges were dropped or reduced to traffic court (in a common ploy the City uses to deny victims court-appointed lawyers).
Hales is the most incompetent mayor PDX has seen and the police have gotten more and more criminal under his regime. Don't forget the O'Dea lies & cover-up reached all the way up to the Mayor. Maybe Hales will manage to go through FOUR police chiefs before Wheeler takes over. Talk about an easy act to follow!!! But can Wheeler reign in the PPB? Will the PBA let him?
Judge Simon's head must spinning on his shoulders. Let another lengthy tedious DOJ investigation begin!
What is a citizen to do?

If you look over the documents, they also released the names and addresses of people who weren't even arrested that night, as a form of intimidation?

I wonder if the IPR is stacked with police informants like the COAB? That reminds me - can the Mercury explain why they haven't reported on the fact that a known snitch was appointed by the city to one of its police oversight boards?
