The DNCD is getting prepared with the right tools and vetted by the DEA...

Canceled and put into forced retirement 28 policemen, including senior officers
Ten captains, 13 lieutenants, three sergeants major, two sergeants and a corporal

Santo Domingo
The police chief, Major General Jose Armando Polanco Gomez, reported today that the Superior Police Council ordered the cancellation and commissioning forced retirement of 28 officers, including ten captains, 13 lieutenants, three sergeants major, two sergeants and a corporal.

http://www.listin.com.do/la-republi...a-28-agentes-entre-ellos-oficiales-superiores




The first batch to go after DEA and DHS vetting...

Cleaning the house as we speak...

The order was given to start from Captains down to corporals, then Top Brass and finally grunts...

Why the middle first getting vetted? Once Top Brass gets vetted and cleaned, there will be a need to promote lower ranks to those positions and the need to go up the chain will be instant. Best to have that next in line vetted first than later.

The forced retirements and cancellations were signed by Medina first hour in the morning!

Told you a large group of DEA and DHS were busy, busy, busy at San Isidro arriving...

Operation "Deworming" is underway...

Hopefully this program works and it is not just a 1 time deal. It would be great if this vetting was done annually or at random intervals.

 

[mido]

If there is no better pay for the normal policemen, then this will just not work. Did you know that the guys have to give half of their pay to their superiors in order not to loose the job?

New Worms

The forced retirements and cancellations were signed by Medina first hour in the morning!

1. This kind of cleansing has been going on for years.
The problem is that they cannot fire them as quickly as new crooks take their places.

2. "El informe de la Polic?a explica que la reuni?n del Consejo fue celebrada el pasado 9 de agosto y d?as despu?s el Poder Ejecutivo acogi? las recomendaciones."
The recommendations were made before DM came into office by the 'Consejo Superior Policial'.
DM just signed the list as LF always did.
Nothing had ever changed the system then, nothing will change now.

3. The 'cancelados' are put into retirement, it is not a dishonourable discharge, neither were they court-martialled.
They'll reappear as businessmen, security experts or worse.

Operation "Deworming" is underway...

Sure, the new 'worms' are hungry and waiting to get their bite. :classic:

[PICHARDO]

Timed with the new graduates for Polygraph experts on the DNCD by US and British experts!

Cleaning house... From top to bottom...

[PICHARDO]

It will be a permanent clean house!

The above was ONLY the first batch trained and certified on the system, more to come and better tech from DHS was "loaned" so to speak from their contacts with the C.I.A. and the Treasury...

They can't not only detect when you lie and are involved or hiding something during checks, but also SEE your lies on your face and body!

 

[donP]

Liars Out?

They can't not only detect when you lie and are involved or hiding something during checks, but also SEE your lies on your face and body!

[PICHARDO]

1. This kind of cleansing has been going on for years.

Nope! Only vetted officers are promoted once a superior is cancelled or put into forced retirement!

That's why they started at the Captain to Corporal level first! The smart way!

2. "El informe de la Polic?a explica que la reuni?n del Consejo fue celebrada el pasado 9 de agosto y d?as despu?s el Poder Ejecutivo acogi? las recomendaciones."
The recommendations were made before DM came into office by the 'Consejo Superior Policial'.
DM just signed the list as LF always did.
Nothing had ever changed the system then, nothing will change now.

Nope! If you had any knowledge of background into Law enforcement, then you wold know what was that handled that way!

3. The 'cancelados' are put into retirement, it is not a dishonourable discharge, neither were they court-martialled.
They'll reappear as businessmen, security experts or worse.

Nope! Cancelled officers get NO retirement benefits at all! 0% and no severance pay of any type or amount! They just get cancelled after admitting criminal conduct while in uniform against the code of their service. They admit and sign a cancellation "contract" in order to avoid getting further prosecution based on their personal admissions of violations from the institution. Officers that get forced retirement, are those that flunked on important parts of the tests and questionings, beyond the doubt that they are dirty, but admit to none as the others.

These officers are ordered into forced retirement with only the minimum basics of their early retirement benefits approved by the executive power. There's no evidence of their violations to the code of conduct or criminal acts, other than an officer that's not trusted due to failing to pass the minimum required levels of tests of the vetting process.

As part of their unique executive ordered cancellation or forced retirements, the individuals can't perform security state or private duties, or carry out a type of business like banking, financial or other character where personal conduct is related as needed for their operations. They are pretty much branded!

As for those that "nombramientos or ranks" were conceded as part of their duties but failed in some aspects of their tests, will get their appointments vacated and their ranks frozen as well as their positions within their units restricted. Pretty much a dead duck for their entire career without any opportunity of advancement one step up.

Sure, the new 'worms' are hungry and waiting to get their bite. :classic:


donP

The new worms will not get pass the vetting! It's that simple!

That's why it was started in the middle, to then filter the top brass and later the grunts below.

Considering the size of the state's L&O institutions, it will take sometime before all is deworming takes place!

 

[PICHARDO]

In that case, rather an empty house... :laugh:


donP

So, in your consideration all Dominicans are drug dealers, pimps, putas and sankies?

Tells a lot about where you mind is!

 

[PICHARDO]

1. This kind of cleansing has been going on for years.


donP

And to clear this part:

No it has not! They had carried out vetting to partial units alone before, not a widespread vetting like now, which requires a lot of manpower, trained and certified investigators and overall equipment to carry it out without faults.

Before what was done at the time, was to carry out a vetting of say, a unit of the DNCD to hunt for certain groups or infiltrate cartels working in the DR. The problem was that unit members are not perpetual and they always got new blood from other units or below ranks, with the needed vetting officers and equipment long gone back to the US it was impossible to keep the unit's clean aspect.

That also took place when the police got vetted on the top brass, resulting that when lower ranks came up the promotional path, the vetting was not permanent and the actions got lost on all that effort.

The solution was to implement a permanent local vetting unit with local individuals trained and certified from the best out there. Also equipment that was able to keep with the times and vetting needs was needed.

The D.H.S. and D.E.A. came about full circle and offered a final solution with Obama's plan for our country with a lil' help from the C.I.A. as well.

Which brings us to now and today!

See?

 

[donP]

A Shame!

So, in your consideration all Dominicans are drug dealers, pimps, putas and sankies?

Hmm, who said that?
Can you quote, please?

And:
I was referring to your detection of liars.
The people you mentioned above probably lie less than 'functionarios' and 'politicos' in this country and that's a shame.

....this statement show a high level of paranoia, I did not get that from his post. I read corrupt and lying politicians.

Pichardo...do you really believe that the top can clean the bottom so quickly and that it is just so easy? I think this will turn out to be a long, drawn out process...it has to continue over many changes in government....it seems kind of unlikely no matter how much it is wanted/needed. I hope it is the start to the long road.
