that, “many people are afraid to say that the police officers involved in the Stirling [sic] shooting were MORE THAN JUSTIFIED.”
The complaints of his own colleagues, however, proved harder to brush off, especially after he gave up his city union perch in 2017. That year, Ortiz became one of the department’s five captains and voluntarily stepped down as president of the Miami lodge, although he continued to serve as the national FOP’s South Florida regional representative.
Robert Buschel, an FOP lawyer who once represented Ortiz, called the investigation into Ortiz “a political hit job. They looked at all these old, unsubstantiated allegations and still found nothing. But they slow-walked it to drag it on as long as possible. This was a systemwide effort — Miami-Dade state attorney, FDLE, FBI — and there was nothing. He got the colonoscopy and the endoscopy at the same time and they couldn’t find anything.
Palacio says Ortiz stands up for “officers day in and day out wearing bulletproof vests in 95-degree weather trying to stop the wolves from getting to the sheep … Sometimes you feel, especially in the course of the past couple of years, you feel alone. You don’t feel like you have backup.”fight pediatric cancerBut one national FOP official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss Ortiz, offered a different opinion.

One arbitrator gave one cop his job back; another arbitrator let the firing against the other officer stand.
“I am being retaliated against because of my position in the FOP. This is a form of union busting and it effects [sic] my terms and conditions of employment for executing union business,” Ortiz wrote in an evaluation form in 2014.

Yep, without the protection of a uniform a goodly number of 'police' would be locked up as every day thugs and criminals. The US has nvr had a fair justice system. 4.5% of the world's population 25% of its prison popln. 95% never have a jury trial in a rigged, white man's system
Hard to imagine such a set up to manipulate, and bully people 💸. Seems weird to have workers in some government unions so powerful that they can’t be fired? Ever? stoppolicebullies🛑 Bth I love everyone that follows the rule of law. 💗💙💖😘
