I REPORT, YOU DECIDE-by Barry Levinson.
BARRY LEVINSON
I want to thank all the good people from all over California who graced our city with their presence last night at our Fullerton city council meeting. They really showed everyone there that the truth will win out over the public relations machine known as our current FPD.
One of the speakers asked Dan Hughes to produce the DAR’s (Digital Audio Recordings) of those officers who arrested the protesters the day of January 18th, 2014 which will allegedly verify that one or more officers taunted the arrestees, with the chant, Not Guilty, Not Guilty with a broad smile. One or more of the officers then allegedly stated that when the protesters are handed over to the sheriff deputies, that they will have their faces beaten in.
Well I now demand that Dan Hughes hand over these DAR’s to prove whether or not those accounts made by I believe all those that were arrested are indeed the truth.
The clock is ticking Dan Hughes and we expect that information to be presented immediately. After all you always tell us that the new FPD is open and transparent and therefore, should have absolutely nothing to hide from the public.
One more thing Dan Hughes. What is the more serious crime? A non-violent failure to disperse or a specific threat to 10 people in Fullerton Police custody that their faces will be beaten in by OC sheriffs. Sounds a lot like the threat that Ramos made
against Kelly Thomas on July 5, 2011. 
Since these terrible allegations against the police were reported extensively right after the arrests on January 18, 2014, why did you not have the answer to that question last night?

Great headline! I’d lose my temper too if I had to listen too all the self-righteous hate-filled gadflies with agendas who stand at the podium, trying to contrive controversies in order to feel rellavent.

Did you know that gadflies lay eggs? Did you also know that they hatch, and grow into more gadflies?

Gadflys? That’s a good one.

Dan’s job is to run a police department, not a gestapo force.
I think the community had enough with the beating death of the homeless man. We wanted closure and expected it with the trial. Well you saw what happened. Everyone knows those cops got away with murder. I think your comments depicting the speakers as self righteous hate filled gadflies couldn’t be further from the truth. They are brave people who are speaking up for those that don’t have a voice.

Andrea do not be bothered by those that try to put me and others down for speaking the truth. All they have are empty hate filled responses. They never deal in facts because they have none. Most if not all are police plants just worried about the truth finally getting out to the public. And guess what – the truth is getting out and if I were one of the bad police officers, I would be worried also.
