Mayor Dave Bing showed that Crime is not the #1 issue in Detroit - and it should be.
He had Saul Green, Deputy Mayor, fire (force a resignation) on PC Warren Evans. Bing, if Evans was such a problem - should have stepped up and fired Evans and had a press conference with a list of reasons.
But, Bing and Green didnt - they alluded to this and that - none illegal and none worthy of firing a police professioanl. They seemed to announce Godbee as the New Chief of Police - but later said he was the 'interim' chief.
Wether or not you like Bing or Evans - Bing should have fired him - personally - not letting underling do this deed.
Bing has promised / said, Detroit will have a national search for a new police chief - I have advocated that for over 20 years - it must be done.
Detroit does not need a new inbred police chief - tied to the leaders? and politicians past and present. We need to clean house at DPD.
I suggest x - LA Police Chief William Bratton. Who do you want?
ps. Watch Warren Evans interview with Fox2 News Anchor, Huel Perkins.

VERY GOOD interview with Warren Evans...he handled the interview much better than the mayor handled the announcement... at first I thought the mayor was announcing the appointment of Godbee as police chief, a little later the mayor and Saul Green mentioned - interim
If Evans transferred out of mayoral security - anyone - that the mayor wanted, that officer would have been brought back to EPU...by the Mayor.
And a reality show showing the Detroit and its Chief are fighting crime - for which
Detoit is almost synonomous with - may have been a positive. Cameras make you work
better more professional - if not then scrap the video cameras in police cars - that have cost Detroit millions of dollars...
do you remember.....
cultural thing in Detroit...to hide relationships..
remember ....Detoit PC Isaiah McKinnon allegedly had an affair with...(Sgt) Cathy Mort----..who he discovered singing ...and promoted...and let her leave her corvette inside dpd hq parking lot...and she was married to a redford twp police lt.... she allegedly was responsible for break up of the 'blue pigs'.........and a lot of talk within the ranks...
- and he allegedly let a (nephew)? leave the scene of a fatal shooting to change clothes...
PC Stanley Knox - allegedly had an affair with a PO Stepahanie -----? and she reportedly had a baby by him.....?
PC Hart...was illiterate (per his attorney) and had affair with serveral women...and became a convicted felon...
maybe DPD should have a no frat ethics rule for police chiefs...
