POLICE DIRECTOR ATTEMPTS TO FIX TICKET OF LOCAL BUSINESSMAN






Two weeks ago local businessman Bradley Greer appeared in City Court for driving 19 miles over the speed limit. Greer didn't want to stand in line like other citizens and kept trying to go to the front of the line outside the courtroom of Judge Jayne Chandler. One of the two City of Memphis police officers who handles security for the courtroom Officer K.J. Brown noticed the man on his cell phone trying to break the line and ordered him to get in line like everyone else.

At that point Greer read the officer's name tag and mentioned it to the person he was speaking with on the phone. When the officer inquired as to who he was giving his name to Greer stated to the officer "Director Godwin will be down to take care of you".

Officer Brown mentioned this incident to the senior officer in the courtroom Officer S.F. Pryor III whose been on the force for 29 years. Pryor told Brown to do his job and treat Greer like any other citizen.

Shortly after court started and Judge Chandler was on the bench Deputy Chief Jim Tusant entered the courtroom with Greer,by passed the judge and went over to the City Prosecutor to address ticket #Q409632. Tusant asked that the ticket be dismissed and it was. Never even regarding Judge Chandler, Tusant and Greer left the courtroom. At this point the judge inquired of Officer Pryor as to why Tusant was in her courtroom. Pryor told the judge what Tusant had just done as part as having Greer's ticket dismissed.

Judge Chandler became livid and told the Prosecutor that Tusant was out of order and that Greer was going to treated the same as any other citizen no matter who he knows. Chandler ordered that the ticket be returned to the docket and that Greer appear before her. The date for Greer to return to court was this past Thursday July 3,2008. In the mean time I'm told that Judge Chandler sent a letter to Police Director Larry Godwin telling him that she will not allow him to fix tickets in her courtroom and that she had returned Greer's case to her docket. I'm also told that Chandler requested his appearance in her courtroom also on July 3,2008.

Earliar this week I received a call from a close business associate who stated to me that Police Association attorney Ted Hansom had been in contact with him,and knew that the two of us were friends. I was told that Hansom had said that there was really nothing to the case and that the ticket had been paid. It was apparent from my conversation with my business associate that there was the wish that I not be present in the courtroom on Thursday morning. Seeing that a private citizen and not a police officer had received the ticket I couldn't understand what Hansom's role was. But when I got to Judge Chandler's courtroom on Thursday morning I found out.

It appears that Ted Hansom is representing Bradley Greer who was not present on Thursday morning. I'm told that Larry Godwin was on vacation so he was also unable to appear. The hearing has been reset to August 5,2008.

The question here is why is Godwin and Tusant attempting to fix a ticket,and what is the relationship between Godwin and Greer. I'm told that Greer owns a restaurant that officers frequent but I have not been able to prove that...yet. The Police Director and his command staff getting involved in ticket fixing should send a signal to mayor Herenton that it's time to make a change. How can police officers ticket citizens when the Police Director is allowed to fix tickets for his friends.

Under Tennessee law “illegal cancellation of a traffic citation is a Class C misdemeanor and carries a maximum fine of $50 and a maximum sentence of 30 days in jail, according to Tennessee Code Annotated, 55-10-204.” But in the case of Godwin it is also Malfeasance of his duties. This matter should be turned over to The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. This matter can easily proven by questioning the officers along with Godwin and Tusant. Plus the records of the court can also be checked. Judge Jayne Chandler also would be able to testify to the fact she placed the matter back on her docket.

The Director was so upset with the officers in Judge Chandler's court for telling her what went on, that the officers whose only job is court security were sent outside 202 Poplar to write tickets on their lunch break.



FROM THE CITY CHARTER:

Sec. 2-10-8 Use of position or authority.
A. An officer or employee may not make or attempt to make private purchases, for cash or otherwise, in the name of the city.B. An officer or employee may not use or attempt to use his position to secure any privilege or exemption for himself or others that is not authorized by the charter, general law, or ordinance or policy of the city. (Ord. 5206 § 8, 7-1-07)

Hooray for Judge Jayne Chandler, hope she throws the book at all of them on the August 5 court date.

Wonder why Godwin doesn't issue a list to the officers stating that these people are to receive no tickets?

Wonder why he is acting as if he were a judge? He should be held to the highest standard. In Memphis, it looks like the standards are very low within the top leadership level.

Congratulations to the Officers who did their job.

You don't know that Greer was actually talking to Godwin, you imbecile.

I really don't believe Godwin is dumb enough to try & pull something like that.

Don't make the assumption that everyone is as dumb and corrupt as you & your black posse of nimrods.

They aren't!

BTW, could you imagine what the world would be like if everyone operated like your dumb black ass?? Be a helluva place, eh?

Thaddeus Augustus Matthews said...

I need to swat your ass Fly. Greer told Officer Brown that he was on the phone with Godwin. The officer has no reason to lie,and we know for a fact that Tusant came into court and got the ticket dismissed now who do you think gave the directive for that?

Let us go down history lane for a moment my brothers and sisters:

A white woman by the name of Joyce Bousson, was once the city court clerk who handled the paying of tickets and recording their disposition. An elected office.

Along came a police man who wrote her son a traffic ticket for speeding and some other offense.

Mrs. Bousson attempted to have the ticket advanced on the docket and dismissed. However a heroic Afro-American woman informed the appropriate authority and an investigation was launched. Mrs. Bousson was indicted, tried, and convicted of criminal malfeasance in office. She was fined, thrown out, and barred from ever holding elected office again.

We now have a white deputy chief of a law enforcement agency, who in the past has constantly and consistently used the word "Nigger" in referring to Afro-Americans, attempting to obstruct justice in the most vile way. We may also have him acting at the behest of the Director of Police Services. A white man himself!

Can the Mayor any longer ignore these criminal white beasts he has placed in office?

Does the Mayor no longer listen to those who elected him into office, as he has in the past noted?

Can Bill Gibbons now wake himself up and make sure a level playing field is in play, and investigate this? Does he not wish to be elected Governor?

Officer Pryor is an Afro American. Will he be punished and lynched?

I say, encourage, and request, you must investigate this matter further. There are way and far more Afro-Americans who get tickets than white folks. The police use the excuse of tickets to illegally search our vehicles, our persons and even our spouses. What Afro-American voices protest against these beasts when they do at the risk of injury and jail?

I also say that if any Afro-American is ticketed that they demand that it be placed on the docket for August 5, 2008!! Let your voices be heard. White folks need to be taught that they are no longer plantation owners and they will be held accountable. I say indict Greer, Tusant, and Godwin for obstruction of justice and contempt of court.

as usual godwins coward ass didn't have the balls to walk into the court b/c he would have drawn attention, so he sent his number one flunkie Tusant to do his bidding, and tusant is such a ass kisser he went, what a dumbass,

i guess none of them learned the lesson of the wolfchase incident where the little girl of the woman godwin was trying to bang at the time was arrested for shoplifting and godwin sent another flunkie to take care of that situation and it blew up, getting one deputy chief Mike lee retired early and major bubba walsh sent to the netherlands of a night shift, the day before he was to get a plumb job working beale st. days.

I believe it. Godwin is trying to do what J. Edgar Hoover did, collect enough intelligence on powerful people in the city in order to remain in power. Remember, he spent many years in OCU. I suspect that he has real, damaging information on the Mayor and several city council members. He knows what he's doing...

This is the corrupt fact of Memphis. So called leaders on a power trip. It does not only occur in the police world take for example those charged with the safety of our food:

Anthony Otuka does NOT have a M.D. or PhD. He has a medical certificate from a African country that is NOT recognized in the United States!! Why then is he called Doctor? Typical fraud!
Why was Memphis under a watch for contaminated Beef (FOR TWO WEEKS) BEFORE it was told to the public.
and then only because of local news!! The Health Departemt is a joke and I hope no one gets seriously ill.

This is exactly how many criminals are busted before they can do more harm to the law abiding citizens.

Seems like a great tactic to me. Because of a busted tail light, they find the dope, find the gun, discover the warrant, no registration, no insurance,find the drunk driver, etc.

Please continue this tactic.

Two Will County courthouse employees have been indicted by a grand jury for fixing traffic tickets for family and friends, authorities said Thursday.

Arthur Schultz Jr., 44, of Joliet, and Diana Massat, 28, of Monee, have been charged with official misconduct and tampering with public records, authorities said.

A judge approved the charges Thursday, concluding a two-month grand jury investigation.

Schultz Jr., who was a court security surveillance coordinator, is the son of Joliet Mayor Arthur Schultz and brother of Will County Clerk

BURNS, Tenn. (AP)—A Middle Tennessee police chief has been indicted for trying to fix his stepson’s traffic ticket.

Police Chief Jerry Sumerour Jr. of Burns, about 35 miles west of Nashville, was indicted this week by a Dickson County grand jury on a charge of illegal solicitation of a citation, a class C misdemeanor.

The indictment said Sumerour solicited the cancellation of a traffic citation given to a teenager, his stepson, around March 21.

Capt. Larry Williams issued the citation for speeding 60-miles-an-hour in a 30-mile-per-hour zone and reckless driving. Williams lost his job after the traffic stop.

Williams said the police chief forced him to reduce the charges, but an attorney representing the city denied this allegation.

Sumerour declined comment to WTVF-TV in Nashville when contacted Friday.

Get a clue Brothers and Sisters:

Fullilove ran after she got one of those little envelopes, and now where is she? Lowery wants to play the game because he has got nothing for the Afro-American citizen other than "I think we need to look at this...I think we need a committee.....we need a consultant." He gets his and you get nothing. Where is his ass when they are cutting the low income funding from MLGW? Where are the TV cameras?
You all know I am right when I say the Cops get into your personal business and your wifes' when they get to search your car about a damn ticket!
I say now and forever, there is nothing a damn white man can do for me I can't do for myself.
You white folks sell your whiskey in our neighborhoods. You sell your cigarettes in our neighborhoods. You bring your dope in our neighborhoods. You bring your house niggers into our neighborhoods running for office. I say no more!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know why this surprises anyone, Godwin is the same person that sent officers to Dillard's to take care of one of his friends daughters, when she was under arrest for stealing there. He also is the same person who made the scene when one of his drunk friends had been placed under arrest for assaulting an officer, and ask that he not be locked up. Oh no! let's not forget when is son, got knocked the FUCK OUT for running his mouth at a fight. I'm sure there are other incidents out there as well, but my point is, Godwin has never been fair to us and shouldn't be police director.

Before I make my comments, let me say that I am a white man.

-"Can the Mayor any longer ignore these criminal white beasts he has placed in office?"
-What if I referred to blacks as "Black Beasts?"

-"Officer Pryor is an Afro American. Will he be punished and lynched?"
-What if I said this?

-"The police use the excuse of tickets to illegally search our vehicles, our persons and even our spouses. What Afro-American voices protest against these beasts when they do at the risk of injury and jail?"
-Look at the jail stats on race.

-"White folks need to be taught that they are no longer plantation owners and they will be held accountable."
-I don't own a plantation - never have.

This type of racism is the worst. The victum mentality needs to end. You are as racist as any plantation owner ever was.

It's sad, but corruption exists all the way down to the lowest common denominater in any government. It's not just black or white, but all races. These people use our pocketbooks as play money.
I am as good as anybody, and it really pisses me off that people in authority, or people with "friends" in authority act as if they should get a free pass.
In my profession, I have to come in contact with a lot of these big shots that like to push people around. We suppossedly elect people to serve us, but once they get in office, they act as if we don't exist. But alas the reason this happens is because we all have our agenda for voting for some one, so we overlook the rest.
Or worse yet some of us screaming the loudest, don't vote at all.
The only way to stop this crap is to hold people accountable on election day, but that is not likely to happen as long as the candidates know that they can hit certain of our buttons and we will vote for them. In the meantime voter apathy will keep this corrupt snowball rolling.

And you can belee dat.

It's time for the FBI to look into how as the head of Special Operations Godwin covered Herenton's daughter in law when she rear ended the man on the interstate. Maybe Godwin needs to explain how the dead man's car was destroyed the next day and why Andrea never received a alcohol test but the dead man did. Lest we forget after James Bolden was fired it was announced that Janice Pilot was the next Director until Bobby Todd walked Godwin into Herenton's office where a deal was struck.

Fellow officers, just hold on a lit while longer, there is a substantial law suit about to drop on the director of police that he wont be able to deny or plead out of. Its about time someone had the balls to sue Larry Godwin for using his position to carry out PERSONAL vendettas..Oh and by the way, Larry if u think you will be able to hide behind the city when the lawsuits lands on the 12th floor think again, someone from the city's attorney office has already said that they are going to leave your racist ass hanging because they had already told you what to do but you insisted on fucking with certain officers.

I agree with u bloggers, black people need to stop voting for these crooks just because they r black, you know half the black population is made up of crooks but you continue to put them in office because you say u don't want the white man to get in. that is why the city of memphis is gone, i hate i ever moved here, and surely am looking for a new city, the whites probably had u negroes under control when they were fully in office and that's why u don't want them back in there.i for one will for vote for a white one this time maybe then some of these no good punks will go to jail and stay there, and these nasty looking daisy duke wearing women will have to get up off their asses and go to work instead of wobbling to the mailbox every month. i am sorry and yes i am black but i am sick of u negroes, everytime somebody says something that u don't like u ready to sue or u r offended, if you want respect then first respect yourself. some black folks r the worst thing that God allowed to roam the face of the earth.

First and foremost, the city is in a state of emergency.Our leaders,white or black only care about "GREEN". The police department has a lot of quality officers,but when you try to do the right thing you 're ridiculed.Officers like me and many others come to work everyday and try make a differnce somehow.The DA's office is a joke.It would seems that justice is administered differentlyamong blacks and whites.They put who they want in jail.As long as blacks are committing non-violent felonies,they are released back on to the streets so they can be rearrested.201 Poplar is the biggest money making business in town,sorry Fred Smith.Blacks first we need to educate themselves,stop the killing,stop the drugs and gang banging,raise our children.I'm sick and tired of black women calling the police on their children because he wont go to school or he or she keep's talking back.Black men need to get off their asses and be men.Use you vote wisely,provide for your family,and don't fall for these traps that are laid out for.

To 1:44 AKA I got Minz:

Please Negro; Please look into statistics of Afro Americans in Memphis and in the nation as a whole. Look at the prison population stats, black on black crime, unemployment, welfare, affirmative action, the dumbing down of the ACT and SAT, high insurance rates, crime in schools (why do you think that there are so many private schools?), government corruption; no bid contracts. Bribery. I could go on and on about this.

I mean, blacks are 15% of the U.S. population and they dramatically affect the other 85%. Is this really all our fault? How much are we at fault? Can you take any responsibility? Any at all? Will money fix it, if we just give more money and free stuff, will that fix it? I honestly think that if there was a program that gave each African American born before today's date $63,000 in reparations, an overwhelming, vast majority would be in line to get it. Even with the stipulation that this was it and that they were on their own from here on out. No affirmative action or welfare.

I am white and I don't like Godwin or anyone else who abuses his or her power. I personally think he sucks as well as his long haired, smart aleck son who was promoted to OCU overnight if you know what I mean.

You failed to mention Herenton in your rant. Here you have a man saying that he is shakin' haters. Does that sound half way intelligent? You failed to mention his racist remarks in almost all of his speeches.

Here is another thought. Look at your ancesters. Look at the Presidential election in Africa. Mugabe said that I will win this election no matter what, even if I have to send out a squad to "hack" up my opponents followers and constituents, as well as my opponent himself. Can you imagine if you lived in Africa? let me let you in on a little secret, Hot Wing junts and Blockbusters are scarce in Africa.

What do you think Memphis would be like if all white people were forbidden for five years to live here or even come here? In five years, after no outside intervention or even reporting of ongoing events or news in Memphis of any kind was allowed, it would be total CHAOS to a level that would render you speechless. There would be dead bodies in the streets, buildings on fire, rampant prostitution and an enormous drug cartel that would make Scarface look like Mr. Greenjeans. Mad Max comes to mind Ghetto Style. The Mayor's desk would have a mirror top for the coke, Harbor town would be roped off for Freaknik. The Pyramid would be Van Wrapped with the mayors favorite rap group or whoever was paying the most. What is so sad is that these things are things that would happen given the circumstances laid out.

Another question to ponder is what if slavery never happened? I would not be here nor would any one person reading this. Did you ever stop to think about that. NONE of us would be here. Let me say this again, IF SLAVERY NEVER HAPPENED, NONE OF US WOULD BE HERE TODAY.

It is cause and affect 101.

Blacks in America want to get it handed to them on the backs of all of our ancestors, mine included.

The civil rights movement had to happen. Thank God it did. Now that it has, get an education and keep fighting for equality. Equality, not inequality; the very thing that you are fighting against. Remember? Or is it just a big game of the "Dozens" or "One Up"?

Look what education can do for people of color. Obama and his wife got an Ivy League education and now they just may be sleeping in the Abe Lincoln bed by Christmas. Pretty good Payoff for someone who has only spent 147 active days as a Senator and never knew his father. That's right "By any means necessary" is the old school cheer in the black community. Just get a black in there.

Do you remember the "I didn't inhale" hooplah against Clinton? Obama openly said that while in his twenties that he was doing Coke and smoking Weed trying to find his identity as either white or black. I haven't heard very much about this. That is because it is deemed racist to bring it up. Yet another Bogie or crutch for the Afican American community.

The bottom line is that we all need to be held accountable for our own actions and we all need to be responsible for our own future.

In closing, I think that all of us are fixing to forget about White and Black equality once we are ALL faced with paying upwards of $10+ a gallon for gas. I think that we will ALL, Blacks and Whites, be saying "Black, White, Green, Yellow, please, someone, please help us, please."

And anyway i BET YOU have had a ticket fixed for your ass before anyway. A lot of people have had that done before and YOU know it. You need to stop and leave people alone. You act as if your fat ass is living the life of a Angel and have not did anything wrong.. He who laugh last laugh the longest. Watch who you talk about because someone will get some dirt on you one day and we will see if you post the truth about it. OR will you lie like someone offered to suck your dick. You have been gay for years and everyone knows it.
Address that why dont you ?

___________________________________

1:19PM you sound like 1 someone who has been overindulging in some fool flakes.

Why should Thaddeus leave "these people" alone? We need more people like Thaddeus to put these lowlife, wanna-get-over on everything & everybody people in power/positions/politrickians on blast. I guess if we had more sickos like yourself then it'd be ok to play games in office, and do exactly what's going on today in Memfrica that's making everybody black and white upset.
With citizens like you 1:19 it's no wonder we have any and everybody whose is crooked running for office. They know that nobody is going to do anything and there are no consequences to the shady shit they do because folk like you are always trying to hush Thaddeus up. Sit your scared ass down and just know that if these fools where doing what they are or where suppose to be doing in the first place then we wouldn't be talking about them now. You niggers make me sick with that jive. You sound like the typical nigger, you know how we like to say, "stay out of it", "it ain't our business". I bet one thing if they cut your dam food stamps off for 2 months in a row your ass will call Thaddeus crying. 11:19 inducted into THE FOOLS HALL OF SHAME. Thaddeus burst these motherfuckers left and right, black, white, red, or turquoise. That's what's wrong they do shit or ain't about shit and we (blacks) don't do a dam thing about it but want to hurt the messenger (Thaddeus). 11:19 sit your sympathic ass down!

I like men, thank you very much. Particularly black men. None of them will date me. That's why I hate them all so much.

WHO IS BRADLEY (BRAD) GREER? said...

Come on folks. Surely someone can tell us WHO Bradley (Brad) Greer is, where he works, and other details. If all the details are what they appear to be, that is one cocky guy.

Thad, you need to put on that master detective hat of yours and get us the scoop on Mr. Greer. He needs to be assured that he is not above the law, or better than anyone else in this town.

10:04pm nice try but you don't have to hide that you are black, in order for many to get your point. You are indeed a black woman. Your diction, slang, is that of a black person. But I agree with everything you said.

Fuck Godwin and the sorry ass Mayor, they are the reason so many people are leaving this city in masses, the city is not safe for anyone to live in and yet these two stupid fuckers are saying that crime is down, get real. Crime has gotten worst every year since Godwin has been police director, his ass needs to be fired!

You all are crying over a dismissed traffic ticket. Try re-directing your anger to the much larger scams, cover-ups, and under handed dealing going on in this city. I don't disagree that Godwin, Herrenton, and all the rest of thier crew should be removed from this city, but seriously...traffic tickets? big deal, go sit in city court for a day (you are allowed, if questioned just say, I would just like to sit in on the court proceedings to observe) and listen to all the tickets dismissed, and not just for speeding. No insurance (yes, those assholes that you hope dont crash into you) tickets are dismissed by the hundreds with no proof of insurance in court. If they are not dismissed, the person is required to pay a fine and they can continue driving with NO INSURANCE! Our justice system is a joke in this state, and even more so in this county, it's unreal. Memphis will burn because of it's corrupt politics, slackers in the A.G.s office and because ignorant people vote based on race instead of issues.

Sometimes it is best not to stick your nose into something that you do not know. For example, people who fish for catfish using a method called "hogging" sometimes stick their hands into a hole and come out with a missing finger(s). Be careful where you go, you may find EXACTLY what you are looking for!

" The officer has no reason to lie,and we know for a fact that Tusant came into court and got the ticket dismissed now who do you think gave the directive for that?

The officer may have had no reason to lie, but you have proven time and time again that you do.

Whatever happened with Godwin and that school teacher death? Was he screwing the man's wife and leaving text messages?

Andrew Clark Sr is pathetic fool that has no influence what so ever.

You couldn't be more wrong negro! If you ever listened to his show you would know that he has more callers each weekend than he can take. It's because he cannot tolerate ghetto peices of shit like yourself that you don't like him. It hurts to see a brotha succeed while you're left behind in your ghetto hell, doesn't it dog?

To the person who responded to 10:04. I am a white male that is 39years old and I learned that slang in Memphis and that diction at school. Thank God I made it through public school before the Wigger phase hit or I would just have the slang and my ass hanging out.

I am currently looking for another city to relocate to because this city is overrun with tribal acting blacks that have no regard for life. I grew up in this city and it hurts my soul to leave. I love this city, but we have lost the good fight. The feds are helping, but that has a time frame and financial limit. It also goes to show how we continue to pay for it as well. We will continue to pay. If we only knew then what we know now. Fuck that God Damn cotton. Our forefathers fucked up bad. And I'm not trying to be funny. I mean it, they fucked up.

People don't realize this, but when gas does rise to that breaking point... Random and vicious crime will be out of control. People better get ready for it because the worst is yet to be seen here in Memphis and this is truly the calm before the storm......

Kudos to Judge Chandler, Officer Pryor, and good ol' Thaddeus.

Advice to would-be powerbrokers --

Don't waste your goodwill with a high elected or appointed official by asking them to fix your fricking' speeding tickets!

You jeopardize your alliance, you jeopardize the public official's position, and you insult your friend the public offical by using him like a cheap rubber.

Save your clout for when you really need a favor.

You are what Memphis has become, you are it's down fall. You and all the vulgar crap that is now Memphrica. I hope I have the pleasure of putting you under the jail someday.

Niggas and Flies I do Dispise said...

For 7:35 and 10:42 yes exactly like I said a true exhibit of a fool overindulging in "fool flakes". First of all, I must have really got under your skin. You posted at 7:35pm and then I guess you had another bowl of "fool flakes" while you were fuming and behold you couldn't sleep because my thoughts are illing you, so you post again at 10:42pm. I guess you really think you doing something now. As I said that's why crime is up shit creek here in Memfrica. We black folk never see what we should see but we can tell you when our EBT cards are ready for usage, we can tell you who Laquita slept with last night, and what's the latest dance move, but when it comes to the stuff we need to see like who broke into Ms. Bessie's house, or who committed crimes, or beating the hell out of our bad ass too-grown kids it's always this: "I ain't getting in it" or "that's none of my business".............oh here's a all time favorite with us "well you know.....they gone do what they want tah' do" sounding like a straight fool. That is until it's your own child. You talk about my vulgar well lil Ms. AngryLou you got me beat with both your post. Please stop talking about your momma and daddy because you certainly are not talking about mine. I'm laughing at you and I'm pretty flattered that you are taking heed to the truth I depict. You may not agree with it but you it's on your mind. As stated: Niggas and Flies I do DISPISE!

this is my first time at this web site,and reading your comments.
I personally think that most eveyone in this town is so worried about race and the white man!!!! that nobody is really looking at the issues that plaque our nasty city!! I'm so sick of this dung
our government is hung up on democrat and republican as our city is black and white. I just don't understand why someone thinks they have to vote for a certain race.reguardless of the issues. I've read many blogs today and the fact of the matter is that until people pull thier head out there ass and quit voting for someone just because they are black!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
such as everyone Black I know will vote for Obama but yet if you ask what political view of his that they like, and noone can tell me one other than he is black.
the bottom line is I hope everyone realizes this before our nation turns into MEMPHIS.
OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE!!!!!!!!\
PLEASE!!!!!!!!

Reverse that no you are what Memphis has become. Someone who wants to mask the truth by saying "leave people alone". Why???? Why leave these people alone when they are doing exactly WHAT THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO DO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO they are the reason MEMPHIS is a hell hole & we thank you for being one of the ones that have made that so easy for them. You say he who laugh last laugh the longest. What you need to remember is "there's nothing like a blind fool" and not only are you blind but you want him to leave these people alone. Just shut up 1:19.

THE ONLY BRADLEY GREER I KNOW OF OWNS THE BOGIE'S DELI ON MENDENHALL, OTHERWISE NO NOTHING OF THE PERSON... IS HE THE ONE IN QUESTION?

Anonymous said...

There are 2 different Brad Greers in the Memphis area. I wouldn't want the wrong one to take the flack. So which is the right one? According to one database, one Brad Greer is 42 and the other is 45. Let's find the right one and see what he has to say about this. Come on, sleuths!

You couldn't be more wrong negro! If you ever listened to his show you would know that he has more callers each weekend than he can take.

That is a lie !!! His rating are down and he cannot escape the fact that he is a step n fetch it negro with a democratic black man about to become president. He will be be on the wrong side of history!! P.S. Why did Clark Sr leave his first black wife for a fat white trash scank? I am white and one of the reason's that conservative are in trouble is due to trying to have a big tent and include butt kissing negros ( We are for white folk period!!) To pretend by having this mongrel piss ant Clark Sr does not help whites at all. How are white causes "helped" by letting a negro act like he is in leadership over whites. Andrew Clark Sr is a dirtbag!!

Hey Thad maybe you got your answer about this "Brad Greer's" restaurant.

Poster at 2:18 PM said he knows of a Brad Greer that owns a Bogie's Deli on Mendenhall. BUT, there is also a Bogie's in midtown, and another on Monroe, DOWNTOWN. That sounds convenient for police to eat at doesn't it? It sure sounds like a possibility anyway.

Someone solve this mystery!

Anonymous said...

Thad PLEASE keep this alive and don't let anyone forget about this upcoming court date. Don't let anyone slick out on this. It just isn't right.

Burn Baby Burn said...

Mr. Greer owns Boggie's Deli. Mr. Godwin may have a "Director's (BBQ?) Sauce" that Mr. Greer sells in his deli. Gowin may have fixed the ticket so that he would continue to make a profit on his sauce. BTW,Bogie's doesn't treat MPD cops any different than the rest of the customers - just Larry!

It is always heartening to come here and witness first hand how race relations have advanced in Memphis. Let's be sure to keep the conversation going. At this rate of progress, we should be up to 1950 any year now.

If someone here wants to go to Bogie's and buy a sandwich "undercover" and report back here that would be great.

You can run but you can't hide Mr. Big Shot. Think you are special Mr. Greer? Let's see what the JUDGE says on Aug. 5.

Remember, Thaddeus is now investigating you like a hawk! Whatever comes out is gonna be ALL OVER the news, thanks to Thaddeus!

Look here. Why can't someone got a cell phone with a camera, go to the damn Bogie's and get a picture of this man Brad Greer. Then Thaddeus can show the world what "Mr So Important" really look like. He no better than anybody else and he need to know we in this city is watching his ass from now on.

Brad Greer you reading this you aint SHIT in my book.

There certainly are a lot of people with high blood pressure leaving messages on this blog.

The bottom line is that no one should be above the law and any offenders should be prosecuted. The Director of any police department should certainly not be using his "authority" to skirt the law. If he did it, he should be fired immediately. He should be setting an example for all police officers and citizens that the City of Memphis will not stand for any corruption no matter how small it may be.
