Friday, March 22, 2019 I received a Hartford Police Internal Investigation report , as the result of a Freedom of Information request to HPD, regarding allegations of perjury made against Hartford Police Assistant Chief Jason Thody. The completed report exonerated Thody of the charges, but implicated others as the result of the IAD Investigation. The details are contained in the over 1,000 pages of the report. You can read my blog posting and portions of the report here http://wethepeoplehartford.blogspot.com/2019/03/what-is-going-on-at-hpd-peeling-back.html
Now I am used to this happening, because it happens all the time. I do the leg work and file the FOI requests to get documents and then lazy media people claim my work as their own. What is even more aggravating is that I usually get the heads up from sources at HPD when this happens.
A reporter will call HPD and ask them "Is that true what Brookman has on his Blog?" or " Can we get a copy of the documents Brookman just posted on his blog?"
I don't usually watch Channel 3 for News, but last night I watched them for some reason and the second story at the top of their newscast was promoted as an "EXCLUSIVE" story of the same IAD report I had posted about on Saturday, complete with the same documents I had posted Saturday. Here is their "Exclusive" story https://www.wfsb.com/news/report-hartford-s-assistant-police-chief-cleared-of-wrongdoing/article_bbcda680-4f42-11e9-b86b-57ffacfaaf0e.html
In the report, the reporter states that in their "Exclusive" story, that Channel 3 were the only ones to gain access to the IAD report. WRONG- I had gained access to the report at least 3 days earlier. It is flattering to know that the Paid media reporters have to chase my content, but I doubt many reporters would want their work stolen and claimed as original by someone else.
Then to add insult to injury, the reporter is now following me on Twitter, I guess to get her content in a more timely basis.
It might be nice if they were honorable and at least give credit to where they were grabbing their stories from. especially when HPD acknowledges that the reporters tell them that is where they got it from

Most of the MSM today are liars and swindlers peddling yellow journalism. This is more of the same from a profession living on its former reputation and reporters is in great need of some professional ethics.
She is a dope.
Handling and treatment of Rodney goes hand in hand with the treatment of Jesse Smollett. To bad Barone didn’t have that same privilege.
I’m not surprised. In addition to heisting your your stories, Channel 3 has been in the back pocket of the Hartford BOE and it’s Superintendents for some time now. That’s what they do. Cover up stories for some, steal stories from others.
Cry A River Mr Timberlake
Don't worry Brokeman, no one saw it because no one watches Channel 3. They're even worse than the NBC 30 Troublemakers and Sponge Bob the Crime Dog at Hartford Courant TV. Yes, Hartford has it. The question is... is IT curable???
A LAWSUIT for $450,000 was given to a
Black man coach from Bloomfield Ct.
who was beaten up by Officer Mike Allen in 2004.
Allen should Be Fired ASAP .We dont need OFFICERS Like
Mike Allen in Hartford Ct. He always is beating people.
Mayor Bronin and IAD are you listening.
you need to get up to speed. He already retired
Did you give up on exposing the incompetence, corruption, and educational malpractice that is permeating throughout the Hartford School district?
You are incomprehensibly stupid, name ONE other person Mike Allen “beat up”. The “innocent man” he hit was fighting a cop, the man was a GIANT DRUNK TURD, nobody gives a crap that he was a coach, for a high school football team. If savages could stop acting savage then we cops wouldn’t have to deal with them. Just wait people, there’s gonna be a ton of juicy bodycam footage coming out of Hartford as soon as the program goes live. Then EVERYONE will see how many mutts are running around the streets of Hartford acting like absolute animals. I’ll bring the popcorn!!
Teachers don’t want students figuring out stupid they are ....
John Gale has been told by the 1st district that he will not have their support for another term on the Council.
Ford was at nrz other nite. When fast eddie takes back his crown , flatliner will be the new chief. What then brookman??
6:38PM, by attending that NRZ meeting, it probably doubled the number of Community meetings he attended as a Deputy Chief
Flatliner will toss the lantern out of the complex. time for Chief Ford to handle all these cry babies and do some police work !!!
The foul smell of deception is roting the community with the arrival of these new contenders for chief of police.
The expert talent of the few will sponsor a new light on the dept.
Mayor Perez will sanitize the outcome of these contest.
Proud members of the community will demand less distraught dept operations.
Change is needed to invoke transparency and dignification.
Chief Ford stand for justice, integrity, and inspiration.
-Time stamp my words blog operator.
why would he start now?
Integrity? that is a word I never thought I would see associated with him. Maybe extra-marital affair, indiscretion or even public sex would be more appropriate.
��Hit the nail on the head there and I pretty much never agree with u.
HOW about RACIST ROB FORD
THE MOST RACIST IGNANT PERSON ON THE HARTFORD CT
POLICE DEPARTMENT ----WHO RETIRED HAD AN AFFAIR WITH A MARRIED COP GENTRY ON THE JOB WHILE
WORKING. OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!! DEMANDED THAT OTHER COPS WHO
DESPISED HIM TO SALUTE HIM.
ROBERT FORD WAS HE NOT THAT CLOWN WHO HAD
AN AFFAIR WITH MIRELLA GENTRY ON DUTY
THEN SLURRED ALL ITALIANS AT ROLL CALL.
YEAH THATS THE RACIST CLOWN FORD.
As I recall Robbie Ford received
a five 5 day suspension
for slurring Italian officers at Roll training.
Ford is not Fit To be A Cop let alone a Chief.
Highly Ignorant And A Coward to Boot.
But Boy could he Dance.!!!!!!
Oh thats right you can't
say nothing about Racist Robert Ford
Cause He Black!!!!!
Going to be some sad faces at 253 when neville comes back ......very sad ....
If Racist Gorillas In The Midst Kessler an retired dancing on tables drunk throwing around the N Word sponge bob were qualified to stay on the job an fit to be cops so is Ford
Brandon and Ford together will clean up that PD and get rid of all the not so good ole boy jabronis in that place cant wait
Neville was alawys out Injured.
He ain't coming back with His high school diploma.
And he has been out of Law Enforcement for more than two years so he is no longer a certified Police Officer and could be required to complete the full Academy to be a Police Chief under State Law, unless POSTC were to waive those requirements
My sources tell me that DC Hightower was called and asked to take over the PD. He is the only chance HPD has to get back on the right track. He’s a no nonsense kind of guy.
You need to get some more reliable sources
Brooks has his degree and FBI National Academy. He’s what Paul West wishes he could be.
Say bye bye to those stupid knit caps!!!
Fast Eddie is running for mayor!!! I hope he wins!! He was always good to police,fire,and teachers unions!!! He publicly apologized that's good enough for me let's send Luke the snake back down south with Malloy!!
When the Police got raises it
was under Pedro Segerra. Not PEREZ. PEREZ HATED THE POLICE
BECAUSE THEY CHASED EDDIE WHEN HE WAS IN THE GHETTO BROS. GANG.
Matt Hennessey was at Perez rally -- as usual
Eating everything in sight. Obese, Loud mouth ,Liar Hennesy said he was
a Pro football player and Dressed up as Britney Spears on Halloween.
Hennessey never played any Sports at all .
Matt Hennesey Daddy got him job as Sherrif where he was Fired.
Hennesey was telling Everyome He will be Campaign Director again for Eddie Perez.
We dont want Emory Hightower.
He Hightower was the Laziest cop on the job at Htfd Police
Hightower could not spell and couldn't even tie his own shoes.
I agree with the comment on Hightower
all he ever did was hang out in Communications
looking at the Lady Dispatchers. Hightower even got into a fight wuth
dispatcher Tommy Cashman. Cashman was a nice man.
Looking? Did you forget about his extra marital affair he had with a dispatcher and the domestic violence arrest?
