"You can't prove it!" APS

The Albuquerque Police Department and the Mayor believe there is significant weight of heroin being moved at three of APS' "best" high schools; La Cueva, Sandia, and Eldorado.

The APS Communications Department, at the behest of the leadership of the APS, is trying to convince the community that there is no problem.

The story only got out because the drug busts were made by the Albuquerque Police Department and not by APS' Police Department.

A recent audit of the APS by the Council of the Great City Schools found the leadership of the APS routinely falsified crime statistics to make schools appear safer and more drug free than they really are. Having their own publicly funded private police force is what allows them to do get away with it.

Look at the KOAT TV report, link, and then ask yourself,

Do we want to continue to allow; felony criminal misconduct by APS senior administrators, to be investigated by their own Praetorian Guard; their publicly funded private police force?

Bernalillo County Sheriff Dan Houston has it right;

1. APS doesn't investigate it's own felony criminal misconduct, and
2. APS doesn't hold onto the evidence; if it does.

The Journal steadfastly refuses to investigate and report upon the cover of the scandal they exposed, link, and Houston seeks to end.
