C'mon now- how can't we like a police chief named "Outlaw." It looks like Mayor Wheeler made an excellent choice. I understand that the process wasn't very public, but it looks like the results of the process were good. Honestly, if the process was public, the usual cop haters would have disrupted it the way they disrupt city council meetings. We would have no one applying for the job. Failed mayoral candidates can whine all they want, but we actually do need to create a decent working situation for the PPB. Right now, Portland is an undesirable city to be a cop. My joke about Ms. Outlaw is that she must be certifiably insane to want to be a police chief in this town.
