Upon hearing Director Dietz mention several times that it's illegal to interfere with immigration, maybe we'd trust cops & government more if they were willing to be beaten & arrested for protecting us the way they're willing to beat & arrest us for protecting each other?

Ahead of this afternoon's committee meeting at which MNPD will be questioned about its role in federal immigration arrests, Nashville legal director Wally Dietz just sent this timeline (with call recordings) to councilmembers. "no evidence to suggest MNPD involvement in the joint operation"

Technically the rules say there isn’t public comment for meetings with no actionable agenda items, so since y’all are already gonna break that part of the rule, why not break the time limit restriction? Committee chairs routinely use their discretion to let people speak for more than 2 mins anyway

Davidson's attorney calls this “a transparent attempt to discredit and silence a whistleblower who exposed serious misconduct within the Metro Nashville Police Department.”
The MNPD lieutenant who went public as a whistleblower against the department last year was arrested Tuesday on two criminal indictments accusing him of illegally accessing and taking internal files and other documents. More on the story from @iamstevenhale.bsky.social:

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will begin screening immigrants’ social media accounts for antisemitic content as grounds to deny visa and green-card applications, the agency announced — a move that immigration law and free-speech experts condemn as an alarming federal overstep.

Lots to consider from the Capitol this week, from a reprieve on denying undocumented kids education to sending the grocery tax repeal to summer study and more. Plus Nashville Metro passed ‘guardrails’ teeing up a contract vote for Axon Fusus surveillance. open.substack.com/pub/adamshoo...

Decided to watch the Community Review Board meeting last night and casually found out that the TBI raided the files of the Butler Snow lawyers that were investigating the whistleblower report. Used a Robertson county judge and the mayor's office hasn't told anyone. 🦞

Not sure how this isn’t blowing up yet but TBI got a warrant to raid the law firm the Mayor appointed to independently investigate the whistleblower complaint alleging that high ranking MNPD officials colluded with the state to strip the city’s police oversight board of power.

There’s a lot here, but one thing that stands out (& is new to me) is the part about MNPD artificially inflating response time. When many of us attended Fusus demo in November, the main reason cited for Fusus was the need to reduce response time. One might wonder if those response times are accurate

Lots of details the author included about this lawyer. One of them was not that he’s worked for the FOP. Seems like an important omission, no?

Did not have @nashvillebanner.bsky.social letting David Raybin (lawyer for FOP opposing community oversight) openly rail Theeda Murphy (community oversight organizer) on my bingo card. They call Murphy a “local progressive organizer” but Raybin is just a “Nashville attorney”. Context matters.
In the first three months of this year, the Davidson County grand jury declined to recommend indictments for 47 of the 654 cases it heard. That is more than 10 times the number of “no true bills” typically issued over such a span.

It’s clear that @connordaryani.bsky.social either did not have the context needed for this article or intentionally left it out. You can’t just call David Raybin a “Nashville attorney” without mentioning he was an FOP lawyer & recent killer cop defender. This is incredibly irresponsible journalism.
