diverse community and they
need to be very understanding
… we want somebody who
is compassionate as well as
authoritative.”
On Jan. 14, City Council
will
hold
a
work
session
outlining the goals for this hire.
Hayner said the current police
climate has taken a toll on the
department and their hiring
prospects.
“We are having a heck of
a time trying to fill our ranks
because no one wants to be a
police officer right now,” Hayner
said. “I highly recommend that
we are doing ride alongs to see
(the community) through the
law enforcement officer’s eyes.”
Hayner
discussed
the
necessity of the new chief being
able to train others.
“What any department needs
is a real strong leader who is
going to set the tone for the
department and someone who
is going to do the training to
avoid the situations we see on
the news,” Hayner said. “I think
it’s really important that we
find someone who sets a tone of
tolerance in the department.”
During the meeting, Thomas
highlighted the community’s
strong emphasis on the future.
“The point that I would
emphasize is that there are
issues and circumstances
that has led to the model
that is being used today,”
Thomas
said.
“What
I’m
hearing
from
the
community is that there
is a willingness to move
past that. I have not heard
anybody say that they’re
so stuck in the past that
they’re not willing to
move into the next stage.”
When asked about the
challenges facing the next
chief, Thomas emphasized
the
department’s
challenges with workforce
turnover and diversity.
However,
he
said
he
would not favor a minority
candidate.
“Clearly there’s been
questions about staffing
and turnover,” Thomas
said. “Diversity of the
workforce
is
another
challenge, but these issues
aren’t
unique
to
Ann
Arbor. The goal is not
necessarily the race. The
goal is the philosophy.”
Hayner said he was
looking for someone who
would be progressive in leading
the police department.
“It’s a look at someone who
is versed not only in ridged
academy training but in new
styles of policing, community
policing
and
restorative
justice and diversion practices
...
finding
a
balance
and
embracing and testing out new
ideas,” Hayner said. “There is
a perception problem and (we
need) someone who is going to
be intolerant of poor behavior
in the department.”
Throughout
the
hearing,
residents discussed concerns
regarding
the
financial
inequalities in Ann Arbor based
on factors such as education
and social privilege, with some
saying they knew of people who
had left the community because
of a high cost of living and the
lack of middle- and low-income
housing. They said they wanted
the incoming police chief to
understand the concerns and
politics of the community.
LSA freshman Audrey Ling
said she was satisfied with
the current work of the police
department and hopes the new
police chief can help continue
this good work.
“It seems like the crime in
the area is not as severe, so it
seems like they’re doing a good
job,” Ling said.
In talking about what she
would want from a police
chief, Ling discussed the large
responsibility that falls on the
police chief.

ON THE DAILY: UNIVERSITY ALUM DARREN CRISS WINS GOLDEN GLOBE
THIS WEEK IN HISTORY: CLINTON SEXUAL HARASSMENT CASE TO PROCEED
On the Daily: University
alum Darren Criss becomes
first Filipino-American to
win Golden Globe
SMTD graduate and actor
Darren Criss became the
first Filipino-American to
win a Golden Globe award
at the 2019 Golden Globe
Awards in Beverly Hills
Sunday.
Criss received the award
for best actor in a limited
series or TV movie for The
Assassination
of
Gianni
Versace, where he portrayed
Andrew Cunanan, the serial
killer who murdered Gianni
Versace and four others.
Criss has always been
proud
of
his
Filipino
heritage, and credited the
award to his mother who
grew up in Cebu, Philippines.
“This has been a marvelous
year for representation in
Hollywood, and I am so
enormously proud to be a
teeny tiny part of that as the
son of a firecracker Filipino
woman
from
Cebu
that
dreamed of coming into this
country and getting to be
invited to cool parties like
this,” Criss said. “Mom, I
know you’re watching this.”
Criss also played Blaine
Anderson in Glee. He also
performed at the inaugural
balls of the 57th Presidential
Inauguration and released
an independently-produced
EP in 2010.
January 10, 1996
WASHINGTON (AP) - An
Arkansas sexual harassment
case
against
President
Clinton can go to trial, a
federal appeals court ruled
yesterday, setting the stage
for a Supreme Court battle.
Clinton’s
attorney
argued
that Clinton should not be
questioned under oath on
such matters while serving
as President. But an appeals
panel in St. Louis decided on a
2-1 vote that the case brought
by a former Arkansas state
employee, Paula Jones, can
proceed.
“The President, like all
other government officials, is
subject to the same laws that
apply to all other members of
our society.” The court ruled.
“A sitting President is not
immune from civil suits for
his unofficial acts.”
“Obviously, we’re a little
disappointed, but there was
a
very
strong
dissenting
opinion...which
we
believe
the
Supreme
Court
will
follow, assuming it takes the
case,” said Robert Bennett,
Clinton’s attorney.
If the top court did agree to
take the case, there’s virtually
no chance a trial would start
before the 1996 election. The
Supreme Court would not
hear arguments until October
at the earliest, and a decision
would not be expected until
sometime next year.
Jones, a former Arkansas
employee, alleges that Clinton
sexually harassed her during
an encounter in a Little Rock
hotel suite in 1991. She has
said she rejected Clinton’s
suggestion that they engage
in sex. Clinton has denied
ever having an encounter
with Jones, and has said he
cannot recall whether he ever
met her. Bennett has tried
to have the case dismissed
on grounds of presidential
immunity.
In a statement, Gilbert
Davis, one of Jones’ attorneys,
said
his
client
was”very
pleased”
with
yesterday’s
ruling.
“This
goes
beyond
the
parties in the case because
it stands on the proposition
that no one is above the law,”
Davis said.
He said the next step -
barring any further legal
delays - would be taking sworn
statements
from
Clinton
and a former Arkansas state
trooper that Jones has alleged
first told her that Clinton was
interested in meeting her in
the private hotel suite.
Bennett
argued
in
September that letting Jones’
case proceed would set the
precedent of exposing sitting
Presidents
to
lawsuits
by
anyone who disagrees with
their policies. In addition,
Bennett has contended that
the lawsuit would unfairly
distract Clinton from the
performance of his official
duties - an argument often
employed
by
government
officials to avoid testifying in
civil proceedings. But Davis,
Jones’ attorney, has asserted
that his client is due the same
rights to a fair and speedy
trial as anyone else - whoever
the defendant is.
Bennett has two weeks to
appeal the three-judge panel’s
decision by asking the full 8th
Circuit court to consider the
matter.
