It has been 110 days since

since it became public knowledge that there were allegations of public corruption and criminal conspiracy in the APS Police Department administration, and by logical extension, in the entire administration of the APS.

A few days after that, Tom Savage, ordered APS employees to keep their mouths shut. The implications of that statement are; any APS employee/public servant can be fired pretty much on the spot, if they tell the truth about public corruption in the APS.

This is what the CoGCS audit meant when they referred to APS' culture of fear of retaliation and retribution.

A few days after that, investigations began and the truth was compiled.

With very, very few legitimate exceptions; that information is a public record and is subject to the NMIPRA.

The public records are in the possession of the leadership of the APS and Modral.

Those public records are the subject of three NMIPRA requests.

All three requests are now out of compliance with the law. One has been denied by feigned abject incompetence; and two have been ignored.

The law specifically requires the leadership of the APS to make public records, public knowledge. They are required to allow the inspection of all public records surrounding investigations of allegations of public corruption in the administration and leadership of the APS.

Representing them in court; the school board president's law firm; Modral.

They will use dollars originally destined for education, for an entirely different purpose. They will be used to defeat the NMIPRA.

Standing in opposition; a retired shop teacher and founding aps character counts trainer.

Standing in opposition as well (?), a former state legislator who sponsored the original NMIPRA, and who is now the Attorney General of the State of New Mexico; Gary King.

NMAG King is unique in that he is still the only public figure to stand on the record and recognize the allegations of public corruption and criminal conspiracy in the leadership of the APS. And further, to attach his name and reputation to the principled resolution of the allegations.

Bill Richardson; if he were here, would not stand on the record in support of the principled resolution of the allegations. He would not demand the surrender of public records.

Nor will Mayor Martin Chavez; despite his previously professed concern over APS accountability.

Nor will any City Councilor, APS School Board Member, APS Senior Administrator, nor Chamber of Commerce President Terri Cole.

Nor, of course, will either the Journal or the Trib.

I will bow to any controverting fact.
