Hislop Joins Gallegos

Who'd a thunk it possible? What I thought was a pretty hard core Eureka Police Dude, Sergeant Mike Hislop, has bailed from Eureka P.D. and signed on with the district attorney's office as Chief Investigator.

I can't help but think there's more to this than meets the eye but, for D.A. Paul Gallegos, this has to be the first half decent recruitment his office has made since he took office. As far as Hislop is concerned, I would of thought peer pressure alone would have made him think twice about signing up with Gallegos.

Maybe we need to look at the salary schedules.

Fred - wake up and smell the coffee. Hislop has no investigative experience at all. Never done it was a sgt for EPD. He is married to Jim Dawson's (the former and interim chief investigator) daughter and daddy lobbbied heavilyfor the job for him. Dawson was the one who did the cheri moore investigation for Gallegos that the county has waited now about 10 months for and also was trying to lobby for the EPD chief's position. Seems Gallegos took Hislop without any investigative experience over 2 investigators with 20 plus years experience. What does that tell you? Word is out that Gallegos is even trying to create a job for Dawson's daughter so she can follow her husband from EPD to the DA's office.

Man, can't wait until the next homicide. They will have to have the regular investigators out since Hislop has NEVER done any investigation of anything including homicides. This is pathetic and a goddamn joke.

Fred - maybe they're starting to realize that Gallegos is in for 4 more years, and probably beyond that. If you can't have what you want, you have to make do. Libs like me learned that a long time ago. Conservatives just aren't used to losing.

Eric Kirk is a conservative. Eric Kirk is no Democrat. Eric Kirk gave himself away on his own blog when he tried to say that Mike Thompson is a member of the Progessive Caucus. No legitimate Democrat could possibly be that clueless. Come out of the closet Eric Kirk. You are a Republican!

Gosh it just sounds evil. Like some massive conspiracy, running out of control like a freight train. THE COPS AND THE DA WANT TO WORK TOGETHER-OH MY GOD!

Hmong gangs are again threatening the lives of non-Hmong people here.

Why isn't it being reported?

Is anything being done about it?

Hislop is a nice enough guy but with the track record of Gallego's hires, we should be surprised he chooses someone with no investigative experience. The surprise would have been if Paul had actually found someone who would work for him who had experience.

If there is a pattern to the DA hires, it is that he does not want anyone of stature (not that he could get and keep them anyway, pace Truitt) because a person of experience, judgment and self-confidence may not kowtow enough. Always remember the DA's rule
"Your primary job qualification is
personal loyalty to me". Thank you,
Duce. Thank you, dear leader.
Thank you, Paulatollah, I cheerfully submit to the Pauliban rules. Forget the Penal Code, the Constitution (the deputies are supposed to swear to uphold federal and state), my prime loyalty is to my liege, the King Canute of Crime, Paul.

The DA has Klein trying to indict EPD over Cheri Moore, so this is cover against a subsequent charge that he hates EPD. PS, he hates EPD.

You folks are really onto something here. Leave no stone unturned. Get him, get him!

8:01 - how do you know this. Did he empanel a criminal grand jury and if so why isn't it in the press. Or is he trying to go the "accusation route" again like the Debbie August fiasco.

The name "Hmong" amuses some.

Regardless, gangs of Hmong thugs have committed attacks on Eurekan children.

At least warn your kids to keep their eyes open.

Can anyone say something at least a little bit on point about the Hmong community?That is super shallow shit you're slinging. Local Whitey

Fred, concerning your original post. There is more than meets the eye ! Much more. And I suspect much of it will come out once Gallegos makes his next controversial fubar. There could be an opportunity for all bloggers to keep busy.

Word on the street is, Gallegos got him baked at the last Christmas party on brownies and Hislop has been like a lap dog since.
