At 9:58 this morning, Bernalillo County Sheriff's Department Public Information Officer Sgt Aaron Williamson responded to my inquiries of this morning.
He wrote in significant part;
Investigators are working with the DA’s Office to finalize the investigation. The information we were waiting on has been received and is being reviewed ...There is some satisfaction in learning that the mysterious third party has finally produced the information for which the Sheriff has been waiting these four months. I can't wait to see the public records of who held up and for how long.
She prosecuted no one in the 2006 scandal and cover up; no one, not one person though felony criminal conduct was openly admitted and reported in the Journal, link.
APS hid evidence from her until statutes of limitation expired on felony criminal misconduct. They hide it still.
APS claimed they turned over (all) of the evidence.
Brandenburg claimed that they did not.
She further asserted that she had no authority to demand that APS produce the findings and evidence they collected during their self investigation of felony criminal misconduct in the leadership of APS' publicly funded, private police force; their Praetorian Guard.
You can't believe either of them and that's why we need to see the findings of the several investigations that followed the scandal and Brandenburg's record of prosecution.
All of which, by the way, remain hidden from public knowledge.
The findings name the names of senior APS administrators who
were involved in felony criminal misconduct and the leadership
of the APS is hiding every single word.
They steadfastly refuse to produce even "legally" redacted findings,
much less ethically redacted findings.
The leadership of the APS, the school board and the senior administration, are spending enormous amounts of operational dollars right now, in their effort to litigate some exception for themselves and those records from the IPRA. The exception would serve no purpose save covering up their criminal guilt.
The leadership of the APS needs very badly to hide those findings and they will continue to hide them for as long as they can.
How they "can" hide is of course, not the issue.
The issue is "why" do they need to hide them?
Why do they need to hide the ethically redacted records of
- their wielding of our power,
- their spending of our resources and,
- their public service in 2006 and since?
They continue do so with the blessing of the establishment's media.
They do so with the outright complicity of the establishment's media; the newspaper of record; the Journal and the affiliates of Paula Maes' and her New Mexico Broadcasters Association; KRQE, KOAT, and KOB TV.
