Alamogordo Police Department Update
Highlights of the Police Update Include:
A shortage in police staffing continues to grow.
" NATIONAL AVERAGES OF LAW ENFORCENT IN SEVERAL COMMUNITES IS 2.4 UP TO 3.8 OFFICERS PER 1000 POPULATION, JUST DEPENDS ON THE CITY. SOME HIGHER, SOME LOWER.
APD OPERATES AT ABOUT 1.3 CERTIFIED OFFICERS PER 1000 POPULATION. IF WE
WERE TO OPERATE AT THE LOWER END OF THE NATIONAL AVERAGE, WE SHOULD
HAVE 72 OFFICERS. WE ARE POLICING OUR COMMUNITY WITH ABOUT HALF OF
THAT NUMBER."

Sunny, with a high of 93 and low of 66 degrees. Sunny for the morning, clear overnight.
Looks like her campaign will be generating a few skid marks in it's attempt to gain traction.
Another great Maryland dad.
the saddest part of this story is that we will punish the guy who was hired to do the smuggling - instead of the person(s) who PAID him to do so.
They're catching the ring leaders as well, slowly but surely.
But I'd be interested to know what industries you think might be willing to pay $15k - $20k per person for unskilled labor that they're also at risk of losing to deportation, before getting a single days work out of them?
an extremely sad situation, in which one person was scared, and the other was killed - it is very difficult to imagine reconciling those two facts.
That wasn't fear. That was an extreme over kill... it is sad. And even sadder that anyone could possibly make any excuses for a piece of filth thinking he is above the law because he wears a badge... in fact to even come to that conclusion is sickening... shame on you.
by no means do i think - nor did i say - that the deputy is, somehow, above the law. my comment was simply observing that because he could not control his emotions, an innocent human being is dead...
and that is very sad situation.
