Title: SAPD Announcement!

Report to Leaders

After reviewing an idea from the Sergeants of SAPD, regarding ARPD Officers being able to be reported for abuse on duty, we've decided that ARPD Officers from now on will be able to be reported to the SAPD Report to Leaders, Sergeants will be handling cases on the ARPD Officers only if a Sergeant is unavailable the SAPD Command will intervene or will intervene for forum moderation.

To keep Organized, I have designed this way for a Sergeant to handle a report;
ARPD Officer violation of rules in Los Santos - LSPD Sergeant Handles
ARPD Officer violation of rules in Las Venturas - LVPD Sergeant Handles

As an example above, to correctly assign a Sergeant to a report will depend on the jurisdiction of the violation of rules committed by the ARPD Officer. If there are multiple Sergeants in that PD which covers a jurisdiction where the ARPD Officer has committed offence of rules, the available Sergeant will handle the report. The Sergeants will post their decision and act upon it and the SAPD Command will then take any moderator actions (Move/Lock topic)

When reporting an ARPD Officer, under the ''2. Officer's Department'' section, you must put 'ARPD' as the ARPD Officers do not belong to either SAPD or FBI group, but are another group of Officers which are neither SAPD or FBI. We hope this new system brings a decrease to rule breaking from ARPD Officers and brings an increase in communication towards them.

Post by: JDC on April 07, 2011, 05:42:03 am: And how does SAPD expect to handle the freecops over which they have no authority? Some of them end up disappearing and it will be a waste of SAPD manpower and the Sergeants' time to go after them.

I believe this is best left to the admins.

Yes...the admins with which are not allowed to do anything but copban, right? The admins deal with rulebreakers, not job abuse. If SAPD should be responsible for training these new officers and showing them how to do their jobs correctly, they should also be responsible for punishing them should they refuse to follow the rules correctly.

They may not have authority, but Freecops are still not able to rule-break. Sergeants are expected to be on the field the most as they're not in SAPD Command to do a lot of paperwork, but still have power to handle rule-breaking Cops and Organize and train units. So it would not waste time being that they're usually are expected to be very active in game. There will be a time limit for SAPD Command to close an ARPD Officers report if the Officer has not been online for a while, otherwise there would be a flood of reports.

This does mean that the Sergeants will be expected to handle the reports in a way first that they try to help the ARPD Officer, being most are new, and they can introduce them to the job and prevent abuse, but in extreme cases, action may be taken on rule-breaking such as /bancop.

Post by: Ronnel on April 07, 2011, 09:12:11 am: I do not see why SAPD was not able to punish ARPD officers for rulebreaking earlier.
However do note that the rules of ARPD officers are less strict.

This however has never given them freedom not to act like a police officer.
Title: Re: SAPD Announcement!
Post by: Leroy Hudson on April 07, 2011, 09:14:42 am: Yes. ARPD Officer will not be following SAPD Rules / Procedures. Reports must be on Server rule-breaking. (Death matching, car killing, Script abuse - Where a copban may be issued and evidence forwarded to the administration team, Shooting still-standing suspects and so on). The SAPD did act upon any abuse from them, but now we'll handle it by reports also, and try to solve the problem through talking to them and warning them to heed from such rule-breaking acts, punishment as a last resort when required.

IIRC, the Chiefs made that statement a long time ago.

Post by: Fred on April 08, 2011, 12:56:15 pm: Well, Police job have some basic rules (ARPD, SAPD and others agencies), like no shoot at partners, dont shoot to innocente guys, dont shoot to surrender suspects, dont abuse jail system, etc, etc...

And I think that "rule-breaking" should be punished by SAPD Sargeant +, since they can copban. But is SAPD Job to (Officer +) to teach ARPD officers what to do, and multiple times I see SAPD Officers + shouting with ARPD Officers, and they dont explain what is wrong, what they need to improve, etc.

We need to change our atitutes (some guys), we are all in the same "family" the police family, we are not SAPD vs ARPD...
Title: Re: SAPD Announcement!
Post by: Leroy Hudson on April 12, 2011, 17:51:16 pm: SAPD Applicants and SAPD Cadets reports must only be handled by the Academy Chief or SAPD Chiefs

Also to raise activity in report handling against ARPD Officers, Sergeant+ may handle ARPD Officer reports.

Example:
ARPD Officer rule breaks in San Fierro then the SFPD Sergeant/Lieutenant/Captain+ may handle the reports.

But if the report is on an Officer of SFPD, only Lieutenant+ may handle the report
