Scotty Boman's video: The Criminal Promotion Of The Criminal Cop BOPC April 16 2020 part 1 of 2

At this event Chairperson Lisa Carter approves the promotion of convicted violent criminal Dewayne Jones from the rank of Corporal to the rank of Sergeant based upon the whims of an arbitrator (Who has no authority under the Detroit City Charter). Even his accomplice in this usurpation (Grant Ha) said the official letter was not yet available. Strangely blaming the COVID-19 virus for this omission. Regrettably the first part of the meeting where Grant Ha restated this information wasn't recorded by Scotty Boman (the admin of this YouTube account). The BOPC is supposed to have meetings posted on the Detroit website, but is a bit slow at it: Here is a News release put out ahead of the event... https://draco.life/2020/04/16/d-r-a-c-o-organizes-virtual-protest-against-promoting-violent-detroit-police-corporal/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- News advisory in PDF format.

Founder Phone: (313) 247-2052 scottyboman@hotmail.com Draco.Life April 16th , 2020 D.R.A.C.O. Organizes Protest Against Promoting Violent Detroit Police Corporal Detroit, MI – Members of the victim’s family, and community organizers are outraged by arbitrator George Roumell’s claim that Detroit Police Corporal Dewayne Jones should be promoted to Sergeant, and are resolved to hold a virtual protest at the Board of Police Commissioners (BOPC) meeting this afternoon (April 16th, 2020). The protest will include statements during the “Oral Communication” portion of the meeting. Dewayne Jones was convicted of assault on March 19th 2019 in the August 2018 beating Detroit Receiving Emergency Room patient Sheldy Smith. Smith’s sister Ashley has produced a video to promote the protest. In it she said, My name is Ashley and I am the sister of the victim in this video. I am a Central Michigan University graduate and a disabled U.S. Army vet. Please join D.R.A.C.O. (Detroit Residents Advancing Civilian Oversight), my family, and the residents of Detroit in a virtual protest against the promotion of convicted criminal, Detroit Police Corporal Dewayne Jones. At their April 9th meeting Detroit Police Department (DPD) attorney Grant Ha announced the decision by appointed arbitrator George Roumell to promote Corporal Dewayne Jones to the rank of Sergeant. Roumell sent the message to Ha by email, but a Ha said he expected a formal letter to follow. On January 16th the BOPC voted unanimously to reject the promotion. The Detroit City Charter says all promotions must be approved by the BOPC. Boman, founder of Detroit Residents Advancing Civilian Oversight (DRACO) said, We must make it clear that we don’t recognize any effort by anyone to usurp the Board’s final authority on promotions. It is their duty to instruct the DPD to refrain from this promotion, and to instead, dismiss this bad apple from the company of Detroit’s finest. This may be challenged in court. Insubordinate elements in the DPD may try to defy the Board. It is their duty to take on court challenges and dismiss insubordinates.
