[quote=Anonymous]In the other thread about the incoming DCPS chancellor, a poster stated that chief Newsham was a respectable person and because he is white, Bowser should make him permanent. When it was pointed out that he was far from perfect, nobody in DCUM seemed to care. It has been reported in the local news that:

1. He beat his ex wife and broke her jaw
2. He physically abused his ex-girlfriend,
3. He cost the city more than 15 million dollars in settlement and legal fees when he ordered the arrest and hog tying of political protesters,  and
4. He ordered the arrest of an 11 year old alleged rape victim and accused her of filing a false police report 
5. New sham was also responsible for the detective unit that was responsible for investigating  sexual assault crimes.  Remember, a Human Rights advocacy group accused former Chief Lanier of tampering with the sex crime statics and discouraging rape victims to go forward.

So, all the hand wringing against Antwan Wilson(?) is because (1) he is a Black man appointed by a Black woman, or (2),  he does not have the qualifications they deem important for DCPS. I get the second, if that's true.  However, this same chorus of naysayers are completely silent on the appointment of the Chief of Police who is a criminal who has gotten away with his crimes, but, it's okay because he is white. SMH.
