The Memphis City Councilmembers approved and confirmed Cerelyn ‘C.J.’ Davis as Memphis Police Department chief on or about January 21, 2025, Tuesday (01/21/2025). We have two(2) recommendations for her today on January 23, 2025.
First, please, remove, radicate, eliminate, liquidate so-called “police crime” within MPD or local law enforcements in the year of 2025 ‘if it exists’. Or please, pay attention to such allegations/issues/possibilities of police corruptions/misconducts/crime within MPD or local law enforcements ‘if they exist’.
Second, please, try to make some efforts to launch an organization or organize a special unit/committee for detecting or investigating police crime, misconducts, corruptions, or such allegations/issues/possibilities in Memphis, TN.
We don’t think such things can happen soon or are pessimistic about such happening in the very near future. However, we write this editorial for the record in the year of 2025.
The local communities should pay attention to such issues/allegations/possibilities of “Rotten Apples” or “Bad Apples”.
Rotten apples should be thrown away.
