Middlesex Sheriff teaming up with Lowell PD

(Click here to view the original thread on the MassCops Message Board)


Posted by: Kb1100

Read this on the newspaper not too long ago. Middlesex sheriff is teaming up with LPD I guess to form an even bigger warrant app. I know the sheriff's office have a WA but I'm not sure if LPD has one. What are your thoughts?



Posted by: 94c

I think they should at least triple the local police departments. Lay off all the deputies. and use the extra manpower to run the jails.



Posted by: PearlOnyx

Didn't Essex County and Lawrence PD do that a few years ago, and it turned out in a lawsuit where the City was sued for lost overtime by it's own officers? I remember something like that.

My thoughts are that you are a tool.

The officers that go out to do the warrent apps probably do get some O.T.But we all know that this state is hurting for money so we will be lucky if they hire enough cops to take care of the streets. Believe me with or without the sheriffs they wont be able to hire enough, the moneys not there.I like the idea more cops it keeps me in buisness. If you try to say let the crime go up then they will have to hire, some other other politicians will go to the public and say they could have saved a fortune by using the sheriffs deputies that are have 101% rights and power to do warrent apps. Whos office name appears first on a warrent.

Thats not to say that its right, but I always look at things from both sides of the fence and try to see both oppinions. I would ask the department officers if they mind the Sheriffs helpling out, then it can be argued. But if it dont effect you it dont matter, why even care.

I think if I cut and pasted this post into a letter to a Politician that they could be charged with dereliction of duty for allowing a Deputy anywhere near the streets.

It sucks to be a cop and only have 100% rights, when Sheriffs have 101%. Where in the MGL does it list the percentages? Do Constables get 7% rights?

I was just saying that there is nothing saying that sheriffs cant do warrent apps.The police have more of a right than the sheriffs to be out there in my opinion due to the fact they were there first and they are the main L.E in this state and Sheriffs far second. But when it comes to picking someone up on a warrent there isnt much to worry about because the cops are with them and they already know what thier arresting the person for. I would think you guys would like the help because more then likely you already arrested them for them to have the warrent out in the first place. Unless its someone you guys have been looking for that has not been arrested yet. 10 to 1 you guys are going to get them in a traffic stop before anyone else anyhow. But if your in an area with alot going on how can you justify using proactive patrol officers to pick up some goon on a default warrent. Usually nobody knows were the heavy hiters are and like I said you guys stumble apon them because there stupid and have a bad inspection sticker or something and get pinched. I would bet you have picked up some heavy hitters yourself that were wanted just by a traffic stop. No doubt in my mind.

I'm assuming this means there are NO staffing level problems at Middlesex Co. There are plenty of CO's on each shift to handle any problem that comes up.

I probably know the answer to that question already. No and no.

That must have been one nice "contribution" from whomever got that job.

The other bonus for you guys : warrant arrest reports are usually VERY short and don't require much in the way of spelling or grammar skills.

My GOD.

Its good for Lowell who did not have a warrant apprehension unit to begin with. Teaming up with the Sheriff's allows for a bigger unit without taking more patrolman off the street. Besides if any of you guys were stuck behind the walls at one of shit hole jails you would be clamoring to get out and do something like this.

It's called applying a police job, waiting to be chosen and then attending the respective academy. Not trying to backdoor your way in. And by the way, the "guys stuck behind the walls" will stay there. This "apprehension squad" will be staffed by people who writechecks. I wonder if those two deputies who beat up a guy last month in a bar brawl, in Lowell, will be part of the team -- which is half the reason State Police Andover is assisting Lowell PD when the bars close. Ah.. state police and the sheriff's "special tactical" teams in one little area. It'll be fun!

bbelichick your right I didnt proof read. The good thing is I'm not on here to impress anyone. I just come on here to hear other peoples opinions. Some opinions I agree with some I dont. I dont hold anything against the people I dont agree with. I agree with most of your points but I just dont see how this would be hurting anyone.

I was. I took a test, went through the process and got another job.

But, I guess that was the RIGHT thing to do. You guys want to do the EASY thing.

The PT test for the Sheriff's academy is how long you can hold up a campaign sign...the written test is filling out a donation check.

I think these Sheriff guys are just assisting the warrant unit with shitbird info from inside the walls. I believe MSP warrant unit is already working with Lowell PD. I remember years ago when Brockton PD teamed up with ATF,MSP,USMS,Sheriff and a few other agencies doing warrant sweeps.

No it's a joint effort and they're doing the same job working out of a precinct in Lowell. I know some of the guys on both LPD and MSO they're good guys. As far as Lowell teaming up, they don't have the resources that the MSO has $$$$. The LPD union approved it before hand with the promise of overtime paid for from the MSO.
I don't think they have any type of arrangement with the SP as far as warrant Apprehension.



Posted by: j809

So they bought their way in with $$$. Otherwise, I am sure LPD would have chosen to work with real cops from MSP.

Right, but all the guys in the Unit are Police academy trained and they do have powers of arrest. I think you'll see more of this type of thing with this Sheriff. Basically he's got a ton of $$$ and really wants to break into traditional police work.
He chooses to utilize old statue that gives them their powers of arrest that past Sheriffs haven't used.
People have been saying it for years that this was going to happen but then others say Oh that would never happen... but guess what it's here they're evan being utilized by the SP for the details they can't fill. open your eyes everyone.



Posted by: j809

You're such a shit stirrer. Sheriffs working Warrant Units is nothing new, they been doing for many many years. The days of Sheriffs working details for SP are coming to an end and just about evry other municipality won't call them anymore either.

Here we go again. Enough with the name calling. Shit stirrer

The detail situation is based solely on what we cannot fill. With the addition of the 79th RTT, it has been harder than ever to get a detail, especially this time of year. The Pike, once plentifull, is even slowing down. Suffolk County used to get what we could not fill at the Big Pig. I have not seen the Sheriffs up there in a long time. Funding is also drying up for the LECS and Sheriffs because there is barely enough money for Golden Boy Deval to make good on his promise of 1000 new PO's. You are the one who needs to WAKE UP!!!

money is getting tight, i know that they are reconfiguring the money paid out for the boston bomb scare. original the sp was getting 700-800 but they've decided to filter 250 to the lec's. i'm sure that will help the cause.

The State isn't given the lec's anything....the lec's weren't even there!

We have no one to blame but ourselves.....Shame on Lowell PD and every PD that calls the Sheriffs. I work for MSP I wouldn't ever have a Sheriff patrolling any of my highways or DCR Roads, but standby local pd's when the sheriffs take over your town and bump you out. County and State Policing is coming...standby to standby!

Ya, and shame on the MSP for working alongside deputies in their drug units.

You're a one man band with no clue how your organization works.

Some of us locals are always ready. Just don't ruin it for the good troopers that are out there with your moronic statements.

I'm willing to bet your still wet behind the ears.

New warrant unit nets 28 arrests since Jan. 28
The Lowell Sun
Article Last Updated: 02/28/2007 11:49:02 AM

LOWELL -- Lowell police in conjunction with deputies from the Middlesex County sheriff's office have formed a six-member warrant apprehension unit that has netted 28 arrests since its Jan. 28 inception.
"These are the type of people who shouldn't be walking the streets of Lowell," Acting Police Commissioner Kenneth Lavallee said during a press conference on the new unit yesterday at the Lowell Police Department.
Lavallee said the 28 arrests by the six members of the new unit -- three sheriff's deputies and three Lowell officers -- cleared 69 warrants for 144 different charges.
"We're sending a strong message to the criminal element in the city that once a warrant is issued, it cannot be ignored," he said.
Lavallee was joined yesterday by Middlesex Sheriff James DiPaola.
"We look forward to more success and I congratulate and applaud the work that was done so far," DiPaola said. -- MICHAEL LAFLEUR

At least when I go to a call, The Commonwealth pays for my gas. I will be more than happy to change a tire, but the Commonwealth takes care of that for us. How sweet is it going to be when you fill up that new truck and go to pay for it sunshine. I am glad I don' have that problem. Let me know how that goes, ok.

I am not saying anything about "My HIGHWAY" or making any statements about us being better. You and I both know that the lec thing is wrong and if you were lucky enough to wear my uniform you would be bullshit too. I respect all cops and understand that the small town thing gets old. I also don't fault local guys/girls that go on the teams..One of my best friends is on SWAT. If anything the MSP is too nice, allowing your stupid PC's to drive crazy in the breakdown lanes to lowell. If lowell and Haverhill got out of lec....you would have almost no calls. I understand that you're excited about the opportunity and I respect a cop who wants to work, but it is wrong and you know it. Another thing.....don't you ever disrespect MSP and say change another tire on the highway.....we lose a Trooper a year in the line of duty. Have some respect and understand that the Troopers are in the worst and most dangerous units/areas in this State.

Jesus H. Christ.....when are you guys going to get over the fact that not everyone who criticizes the MSP ever had the desire to be a trooper??

I don't know "dolt" and don't necessarily agree with him, but surely you can do better than that.

Criticizing is one thing, hate is another. I have no problem with critics. We are not perfect. I know I do my share of criticizing on this board, but dolts comments are spiked with hate. If you hate someone, there are only two reasons for this: either they wronged you or you wish to be them. Just my opinion. Take it any way you want. I don't hate Sheriffs, Locals or DOC. I am however critical of their actions at times. There is a difference.

As long as people can honestly look at their own jobs and still be critical about some of the things that their organizations do, there should not be any problems. That includes everyone from federal, state to part time cops. If you can do this, you have the right to criticize others. If a person can't honestly look at his/her own departments, then a person has no right to criticize others. No one or organization is perfect..as soon as some people realize this, these posts will become shorter.


I think the reason the Sheriff is so focused on doing things for Lowell is purely for selfish reasons..he is considering running for Marty Meehan's seat if he gets the UMASS Lowell job..Of course everything he has ever done from boats to warrant teams to SWAT teams has always been to promote himself..it is the average guy who works behind the walls that takes the heat..and no I am not with the Sheriffs Dept

I TOTALLY agree Nirt !!!!!!!

It comes from personal experience; I would say 90% of the locals I know that "hate the MSP" were in the Academy and quit or were ejected from the process. I am friends with many local guys and most of them have ZERO problem with the MSP. The most vocal ones have a "history" if you dig a little further.

Of the small time local Chiefs in Western Mass that are constantly "ordering the MSP out of town", do a little digging and you will find their name on an MSP Entrance exam somewhere.

Most Troopers would probably echo this phenomenon. I am sure it doesn't cover all cases but it is pretty accurate.

I have yet to meet anyone who "hates" the MSP (hate being a very strong word), and most of the criticism I hear (and level myself) is directed at the brass for not properly staffing the stations, which is turn makes our job harder.

And, for the record, I have never taken the MSP test, although I was called of the 1992 merger list. I did not return the background packet. Please feel free to look it up for yourself.

Now Coach, you clearly HATE sheriff's, so should we believe there is a deputy sheriff application out there, somewhere, with your name on it and a big red REJECTED stamp across it

Nah, but I was a C/O.

That job is awful.

This is what I find disturbing....When I was a local, I wanted the Troopers to come into my town because I knew that they would stir it up...when I was ordered to sit in a parking lot while one of my 40 year Lt's slept behind the dispatch console. I still locked people up but I was so angry that as a cop I was told not to do work. The MSP never really came into my town but when they did I made it a point to say hi or start conversation. When I joined MSP, a dream that I had since I could talk, I was really honored and proud to wear the uniform enriched in tradition. I work my balls off, proactive, proactive, proactive. I have been lucky enough to get great assignments, and currently work in Boston. I find SOME locals coming up to me asking why i'm not on a highway. I know some are kidding, some are even my friends, but SOME guys feel this way? I always reply the same way...First, I don't cover any major highways, secondly....I don't work for CHP, I work for the Massachusetts State Police. Why are you in my State? Most Troopers don't have the thinking process of "Make A F***ing Hole" most were locals, sheriffs, DOC, even fed's that are happy to assist local/city pd's and make friends. I also agree that we have a purpose, like all dept's....The State Police are the experts in motor vehicle law, OUI's Accident Recon, and making gun and drug arrests off civil violations. The cops who can't do this are first to say "ya violate another persons rights" but most of the time this isn't true. Most Troopers are honest, hard working men/women who want to do the right thing...nothing worst then the slippery slope! Anyways.....If everyone did what they were intended to do, locals patrol their city/town, sheriffs work the jails and gather intel (which is very valuable info for all of us) and State Police patrol the STATE! We would make everything right again. The lec's are wrong and trying to take more of our jobs...ie. Crime Scene, Swat, Computer Crime, etc....Even members of the lec's that I am friends with say that it is wrong. I was watching that double murder in Woburn and I spotted the nemlec crime scene truck? The State Police assigned to the DA's office handle murders...Why was nemlec there? Our crime scene handles that end of the scene so how can MSP Crime scene and nemlec handle the same evidence? This seems like things would get screwed up? Just another example of things gone wrong in this state...Be Safe.

I didn't know that only the MSP are the experts in mv law, accident recon, and every other thing that falls under law enforcement. Us locals should geneflect evertime we see a trooper.

I completely agree that's the case now, but it most certainly wasn't always. I don't think I need to tell you that all cops have the memories of idiot savants when it comes to that kind of stuff.

This is a list of 5 things...I guess that means the locals are experts in everything else...

same thing goes for most local cops, whether you guys want to admit it or not

.

I agree with you 100% but you have to admit that when a hot call comes across the radio, we get every trooper from inside Rt128..and this comes right after we get a call from the barracks asking us to book an accident because they don't have anyone in the area. This is not a shot at the individual trooper doing his/ her job, but at the upper management

Did you ever think that just because someone is a local, he may still have more experience and expertise in computer crimes...the patch on the sleeve doesn't determine if you have more knowledge about specific issues.

Then maybe these friends should resign from the LEC if they feel that strongly about it..

What is the problem here ??!! The MSP Troopers that I know, including all those that i worked with before they became Troopers,are excellent officers and intelligent, stand up guys. It seems to be the officers in small towns who disregard professional courtesy and have delusions of grandeuer , that raise our eyebrows.... Troopers are a.o.k. in my book and with 99.9% of the guys in this police department.... we only raise an eyebrow at small town cops who seem to have a need to "prove" themselves or "impress" their boss and with the political hack deputies who thirst for underserved authority, despite little trainining and their wink and a nod appointment process.. ALL real police are top shelf here.. MSP has acquired respect.... the right way - they earned it.

Oh I know, your comments on this board are always of the positive nature. Maybe we should all bow down to you with your enormous amounts of infinate wisdom and experience since you seem to think myself and my classmates are not worthy enough to post our opinions or respond to your rants!

94c is a whacker, just like some of his inexperienced college officer and deputy friends - he has no clue....they need their own web site forum.. very, very different jobs.

No need to bow. Just let your Super Trooper friends defend themselves when they tell the world how great they are.

and what makes your Mickey Mouse Department any different? Everyone to you is either a whacker or a wannabee.

This is you bragging about your massive department in another thread;

"we make about 2000 arrests and request numerous warrants and summons each year. In addition we respond to about 30,000 incidents a year."

well, we make over 6,000 arrests a year and respond to over 90,000 calls. Lightweight.

Any chance we stop bashing the hell out of each other? I would hate to see what the bad guys are gonna do to us if we attack each other like this.

To some point it is funny, but we are going way past that point.

Hey dick head,

how about you have a nice warm glass of SHUT THE FUCK UP! You're an SSPO and all you do is talk shit about the State Police. You are nothing but a rabble-rouser w/ too much free time on your hands. That's clearly obvious since reading the nearly 2000 pointless and hater posts/threads on this site written by YOU!

Hey 94C,

when's the last time you made a felony arrest? If ever. Here's an idea, get your fat ass off the computer and do some good for once in your life. You are a problem child and a hater. It's people like YOU that cause outside-department problems!

NO MORE PROFFESSIONAL COURTESY. ONE MORE EXAMPLE LISTED ABOVE!
