If the Tampa Police Department really wanted to "keep us safe," they would stop allowing their confidential informants from committing crimes against the citizens of Hillsborough and Pinellas County.

I have been the victim a serious crime committed by a Tampa Police Department/Hillsborough County Sheriff Department Confidential informant named Bradley Boyce Bowen.

Bradley boyce Bowen is allowed to commit crimes willy-nilly (w/o fear of arrest) as long as he works as a confidential informant. His crimes include, passing bad checks, assault with a firearm, animal abuse, domestic violence, extortion, assault and battery, narcotice trafficking.

You are failing to note that your own brother was likely a confidential informant?

You stated the facts yourself? Previous prison record then it was mysteriously removed? Not my facts, yours.

My brother is virtually brain-dead from type-4 glioblastoma brain cancer. He can't even wipe himself much less be of any help to law enforcement. But you are correct in that his criminal records seemed to have disappeared sometime in 2003-2004 at the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida.

As you know, many criminal records have been removed from the public dockets on both the state and federal level. http://www.rcfp.org/news/mag/30-1/cov-disappe...

With no criminal record on file, the confidential informant is virtually undetectable; problem is, they are free to commit serious crimes willy-nilly among the general population as a fringe benefit while they help the Tampa Police Department and the Hillsborough Sheriffs Department "solve crimes."

I recall your brothers condition and I'm sad for anyone who must endure that.
You stated there are "hundreds of thousands of CI'S" running around wreaking havoc.
Your hatred for the practice should be tempered by the very real possibility that he was one at one time.

You're shortcoming, H Askton, however, is that you rather enjoy it, and have proposed no solution whatsoever to stop the victimization of innocent Americans subject to the CI havoc.

Maybe those USAO/FBI CI Guildelines need a little Rehabilitation Act of 1973 self-evaluating to eliminate disabled Americans being the target just because they are easy prey.

HAckston,
did you read the link to the post above?
"The News Media and the Law" is a highly respected publication.

The article "disappearing Dockets' reveals "during the five-year period ending Dec. 30, an average of 18 percent of nearly 3,000 criminal cases were not docketed in Washington's U.S. District Court."

Do you grasp the seriousness of an 18% rate of undocketed cases in our U.S. District Courts? That's one of five cases allowing the convict to mix into society with a "stealth" criminal record!!!!!

Do you fancy the idea that the person living next door may well be a criminally insane nut-case with no courthouse record -- working as confidential informant while committing crimes in your neighborhood w/o legal consequence?

Yes, the practice is chilling to the extent I advocate neuro-psychological testing not only as an integral component to the judicial nomination process, but as an on-going requirement while on-the-bench.

DFP, Esq. H Akston believes your audience of judges won't receive your ideas with much enthusiasm, but he forgot about this investigative current Congress ... as well as the neuropsych testing business lobby.

Let's see: sell more neuropsych tests by opening a new cash cow market (judges, lawyers, & their law clerks)= same as sell more pharmaceuticals (bar examination drugging w/Adderal and Ritalin to cop a passing score)= more profits ALA Ayn Rand "Atlas Shrugged" pure laissez faire Libertarian capitalism.$$$$$$$$$

DFP, Esq., having undertaken said Economic Analysis I would give the success of your novel idea better odds than Big Brown winning the KY Derby and Preakness Stakes!!

I have expressed nothing, except being married and the fact of your mockery. Oh wait, tell me you don't actually believe people w/autism get married and like to engage in sexual relations like everyone else? Or, that you're not only an Ayn Rand Libertarian and a card carrying member of the Communist Party, but a bit Holmesian as well.

What, exactly, is your "job," H Akerlsey?

Libertarian Communist?
I've read Mein Kampf, the Bible, the Koran, and a few Hardy Boys mysteries too?

So I guess I'm a Libertarian Nazi Communist Christian Teen Detective Islamist?

I'm exhausted!

chuckie, Fred E already admitted he was H Akston. He stated he was changing names to find something more to my liking. I don't like either of his chosen names. Perhaps he would like to entertain yet another name change?
