No Finer Disgrace

HPD Chief Mills is a spendthrift dinosaur.

His old-fashion police tactics are not only an embarrassment they are fundamentally unfair and costly.

His position paper on Marijuana reflects his prohibition era methodology proven so detrimental to society.

Yet, he continues his harmful and bull-dog management style that went away in the 30’s. Mills needs to take his retirement and get lost.

He is part of a out-of-date feeder system that wasting billions of dollars and stunting million of lives.

Chief Mills has been characterized, by many of his police officers, as a do nothing, late to arrive, early to leave and always on the look-out for a long coffee break.

Mills is operating on a 20 year old staffing vs. need report that allows him to intentionally schedule overtime at great waste to Hingham’s taxpayers. Last year it was $500,000.

Why in God’s name would we send a superior officer, much less the most greedy and highest compensated officer, of all time, to a 10 week course offered by the FBI?

The man-power replacement costs alone would be a lavish unnecessary expenditure, not to mention the travel and out-of-pocket costs. Yet, he sends the wannabe chief; John Norkaitus on a 10 week vacation.

Norkaitus used to be a good cop that contributed to the upbringing of the towns youth. Before he turned greedy he would take beer from teenagers and drain the cans in the bay then tell them he would call their parents if ever caught them again

Now he advocates arresting them and sending the information to Mary Ford to be printed the following week for all to see.

This of course makes issues worse, but that is the way with Mill’s and his antiquated philosophy. Did you know Mills has hand picked Norkaitis to be his successor?

Mills and Norkaitis are out of control. The Selectmen should form a committee that will look into every aspect of our police department with the eye toward reshaping it from top to bottom. Dinosaurs have been gone for millions of years.

Why is Mills still here?

Mills, the great spender, is liked by his superior officers as he allows them to lie, cheat and steal public trust, not to mention gas, insurance, time and money. Did you know Mills is sending two of his “boys” to Gang School in Boston when he can get the same service from The State Police for free?

Gangs in Hingham? Not today, not tomorrow Chief.
