I thought this tweetin' business was for soccer moms and teenage girls.

Or maybe I'm thinking of facebook.

Don't do either one.

Default not too embarrassed

I do not find that bad at all. I think Acevedo has been way better than many former Police Chiefs of Austin. When he actually supported looking into the shooting of the Rocha guy and wanted his cop investigated and fired her even-I was proud of him for looking for the truth and not hiding behind the badge. So many Police departments in the US in the past "close ranks" despite truth and that is wrong.

Glad to see the Chief say he doesn't want to roll around in the mud with a "lowlife". Seems that he doesn't like the competition - here's a site that discusses rotten California cops:

No Justice in Battering Cop Case


Quote:
[SIZE=2]Then on July 9th, news hit that CHP Assistant Chief Art Acevedo, a prominent candidate to replace Helmick, was in trouble. According to the Press Democrat, Acevedo "has been the subject of a recent state sexual harassment investigation and a $5 million civil claim for allegedly showing nude photographs of a subordinate officer to high-ranking officials while on duty . . . Acevedo kept sexually explicit photographs of the woman in the glove compartment of his state-issued car and displayed them to various supervisors between 1995 – when his brief affair with the officer ended – and 2002, according to claims filed with three state agencies . . ."[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]When he took the photos, Acevedo was a sergeant – guess where! – in the agency's internal affairs bureau! At the time the lawsuit was filed, the CHP had taken no disciplinary action against Acevedo.[/SIZE]
I don't know the outcome of that sordid case, but I'm sure a lot of you will continue to drink Art's KoolAid no matter what.

Hmm. As a woman, I would just add that, as has been proven time and again, letting your current boyfriend take nude photos of you, is, in general, not a good idea. One must keep in mind the fact that the current bf may - one day soon - be the ex-bf and use those photos for nefarious purposes.
