Former Memphis police recruiters told The Associated Press of a growing desperation to fill hundreds of slots in recent years that drove the department to increase incentives and lower its standards.

“They would allow just pretty much anybody to be a police officer because they just want these numbers,” said Alvin Davis, a former lieutenant in charge of recruiting before he retired last year out of frustration. “They’re not ready for it."
The department offered new recruits $15,000 signing bonuses and $10,000 relocation allowances while phasing out requirements to have either college credits, military service or previous police work. All that's now required is two years' work experience — any work experience. The department also sought state waivers to hire applicants with criminal records. And the police academy even dropped timing requirements on physical fitness drills and removed running entirely because too many people were failing.
Another former patrol officer-turned-recruiter who recently left the department told the AP that in addition to drawing from other law enforcement agencies and college campuses, recruits were increasingly coming from jobs at the McDonald’s and Dunkin’ drive-thrus.
Many young officers, before ever walking a beat with more experienced colleagues, found themselves thrust into specialized units like the now-disbanded SCORPION high-crime strike force involved in Nichols’ arrest. Their lack of experience was shocking to veterans, who said some young officers who transfer back to patrol don’t even know how to write a traffic ticket or respond to a domestic call.

“They don’t know a felony from a misdemeanor,” Davis said.

That report is totally legit as they've even resorted to try and waive the residency requirements to get officers and recruits from outside the Memphis area. This particular problem isn't necessarily on CJ and I say that as someone who thinks she should have never gotten the job as she's never anywhere to been found when it comes to speaking to the public like the previous police chief did.

She doesn't even live in Memphis herself, but instead outside the city lines.

This is pure insanity

FIRE the Police Chief and reinstall some goddamn standards and bare minimums to law enforcement. Not just in Memphis, but across the COUNTRY

that department is in need of federal oversight. that black bytch allowed ANYTHING to go on in that department, and then turned around and threw them a$$holes under the bus.

she reminds me of the role jack nicholson played in a few good men. turned them dudes loose, then when that can ended up dead from the code red, he cut ties to them

From an article I came across, Bean had only worked at AT&T and a fast food restaurant previously.

In the newly released documents, police officials said that one of the five officers, Demetrius Haley, admitted to sending a photograph of Mr. Nichols to at least five people, including two fellow officers, a civilian employee of the department and a female acquaintance. A sixth person also received the photo, the records state.
