An open letter to Vallejo Police Chief Nichelini:
Your years-long fight with the city council using the citizens of Vallejo as fodder for your political goals has got to stop — now!
While you flagrantly dilly-dally on your decision to retire, you induce crime into this town with your continuous ill-considered statements to the press. The latest: “When you have half the number of people, you can only do half the amount of work.” (www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-08-22/prostitutes-flood-vallejo-after-bankrupt-city-slashes-police-33-.html) It’s like saying: Only half of you criminals will get caught, so come on in everyone!
You are a public servant. Who gave you permission to speak like this to the press? Basic business rules everywhere are “Keep your trouble to yourself.” But over and over again for years, you blab to anyone who puts a microphone in your face and more crime comes.
