Update from a friend with the LAPD:

"Many of our officers who left the department in disgust under the Parks regime are now returning. Quite a few went to the federal Air Martial Program and left there is disgust too! It's run be a tight group of Secret Service types who won't listen to anyone but themselves and have succeeded only in making a hash of things.

The new chief of the LAPD is down to three candidates, one from here, one from NY City, and one from Philadelphia. Memories of Willie Williams (who was from Philadelphia) still linger in all our minds!"
