Surprise Chief's Supporter Goes Crazy

These comments are great examples of a typical Surprise Police Chief Dan Hughes supporter.  Is the guy drunk or bipolar?  Most of Dan's supporters are from the Church of the Vine.  Read this and tell me if you think this group of Dan supports are nuts!

Save Dan Support Created to Help Embattled Chief

July 21, 2010

Now what is Surprise Police Chief Dan Hughes trying to do?  He's keeping busy during his administrative leave. So far, Dan has been interviewed for a job at CAP, hired an attorney, rounded up misguided supporters, quit his church, looking for another church to join and created a website. 

Oh, I forgot!  He's managed to get the AZcentral reporter on his side and do propaganda stories for him.  What's that all about?  Nowhere did the reporter mention Boardpecking, which has kept the world up to date on ringmaster Hughes and his circus performers. Only those insiders truly know what's going on. There are a lot of misinformed people in Surprise who think Dan is a great chief.  Just read this site.

At an ensuing criminal trial and reinstatement hearing, Fleck testified favorably for Patterson. Patterson was acquitted and reinstated.

AZcentral: Attorney: Surprise Police Chief Hughes was asked to fire aide

July 15, 2010

Seems like lies, deception and corruption are the news as reported.  This twisted story is as unbelievable as the recent "drug stats" story.  Did anyone expect us to believe it?   

This one-sided story in AZcentral shouldn't have been posted.  The story is reputed, and the allegations were never confirmed.  

Hughes hired an attorney after the City of Surprise rejected his request for legal assistance. The city attorneys represent the City not individual employees, right?  Sounds like all the back scratching is over.
