How I wish.Nobody prosecutes in Marion County
Doesn't the chief of police answer to the mayor? What's your current pursuit policy?Can someone please explain to me exactly what a Mayor has to do with keeping someone in or out of jail?
Yes. And I've posted it before. Basically no pursuits for infractions or stolen vehicles without other factors involved. Again, what does that have to do with keeping someone in or out of jail? The Chief has no control over bail or custody issues, and neither does the Mayor.Doesn't the chief of police answer to the mayor? What's your current pursuit policy?
If you can't chase and catch someone who flees how can you put them in jail? I agree that the Mayor and Chief have no control over bail or custody, but you have to be able to catch/arrest them before it gets to that point.Yes. And I've posted it before.

I'm only referring to bail and custody. All of the other things are ancillary.If you can't chase and catch someone who flees how can you put them in jail?

He has some effect/control over the catch part of catch and release.
And that doesn't take in the effects of morale. And/or hiring standards, and the quality of the applicants they get in the first place. How many officers on INGO have said the wouldn't have gotten into LE if the LE environment was the same then as it is now? Or wouldn't recommend getting into it now.
Gotcha. I was referring to the whole ball of wax.I'm only referring to bail and custody. All of the other things are ancillary.
It is definitely all a s**tshow.Gotcha. I was referring to the whole ball of wax.
