------------------------------------------------- To Join: St. Paul Issues Forum Rules Discussion Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------- Corky Finney has indeed been one of the best Chiefs in the country. His tenure was marked by high ethics, zero tolerance of police misconduct, and the best yet relationship of police with the various neighborhoods in st. paul. And of course quite importantly, the city's levels of violence and crime have been as low as it gets in a big city. Cops here are professional, well trained, and reflect the community well. Chief Finney deserves a lot of the credit for all of this.
He will make a formidable candidae for mayor. dave thune st. paul ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Mitchell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, June 26, 2004 11:19 PM Subject: Re: [StPaul] Let's vote for the Lesser Evil > ------------------------------------------------- > To Join: St. Paul Issues Forum Rules Discussion > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ------------------------------------------------- > I see Brett doesn't let the facts get in the way of > his posts. > > Finney is regarded as one the best and most innovative > Police Cheifs in the nation. 30 years serving St Paul > as a police officer and briefly, an elected official > on the School Board. > > His son- not him, but more importantly, the case is in > another juridiction being investigated.
