re: The mayor's top choice for BRPD chief was on the infamous vegas trip

Only a few have actual leadership experience along with the respect of peers and organizations outside of the BRPD that can be essential to partnering and tackling a growing crime problem. And of those few, on 2 have the temperament to actually be a strong enough head to do what needs to be done to make the city a safer place. JMHO. The rest just want a paycheck with the pride of the office and will do whatever the mayor wants.
