	06/30/07 Miami-Dade JDC: Let's consider the Dade JDO's question "What's wrong with Miami-Dade JDC?". A complete and all-inclusive answer to that question would require an extremely long and detailed list of infractions,crimes,cover-ups,and generally unseemly,immoral and unprofessional behavior on the part of staff and administration alike. A concise and abbreviated answer might just say that the root of the problems at Dade spring from the fertile ground of corruption in the state and regional DJJ apparatus, and has been nourished with the fertilizer of deceit and political expediency. ~Cutler Ridge
	06/30/07 Hillsborough West JDC: Needs is not a racist, if he was he wouldnt hire so many black people. just look around. blacks are the biggest racist. they hate on eachother and everyone else. and when things dont go their way they pull that "race card". and everyone kisses ass not only darlene. at any job its a game of survival. so do whatever it takes to survive! ~Anonymous
	06/29/07 Miami-Dade JDC: To Miami-Dade Anonymous, You don't see the big picture. Doubler may well be a scum-bag but he is a saint when compared to Pifer,Davis,Criswell,Davidson and the rest of the corrupt parasites at DJJ. The mismanagement and subterfuge in the Department starts in Tallahassee. The"jury is out" yet on McNeil but ,the indications are that nothing much has changed in the rancid DJJ swamp. The political/financial interests of lobbyists, for-profit privateers,DJJ officials and insiders still over-ride the interests of the public or at-risk youth., ~State Employee
	06/28/07 Orange JDC: A year before Park Place took over Orange, John was already talking about it... It was all on the works with his friends... He was talking with Williams and Disney long before the bid... The bid was just a "show"... Dizney "liked" John because he told Dizney everything that she wanted to hear, and he is a "red tape (and red neck?) kind of guy" and he encourages and makes the staff to come up with all kinds of paperwork trail "protect themselves"... in case there is a "problem..." but there is a trade here... have the staff notice that Park Place staff spend less than 5 minutes in average with each kid... ~Orange Officer
	06/28/07 Miami-Dade JDC: To the Miami JJDO that Posted, My Sister, you are right about the management at Dade (Doubler sucks). But,get real, you are wrong about the "hard-working officers". Many of the staff at Dade is worse ganstas than the street kids and crazies here. There is a lot of sleeping on shift,talking on cell phones,smoking reefer,screwing around and back-stabbin. This place has always been a hole. Remember Omar...not much has really changed.) ~JJDO
	06/28/07 Escambia JDC: hey is it just me or is escambia jdc the worst place to work.??? favortisism is at a all time high!!! we had two colored (black) staff have heart attacks and one was told that he could not come back until he could work a 16.5 hour shift on the floor and the other was forced to come back early because he ran out of sick leave... now on the other hand there is a mexican lady who had some sort of "female" problem?? which she says required kemo? every one bent over backwards for this staff... ~scared staff
	06/27/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: I had not put the name of Richard Davidson the new Assisstant Secretary of DJJ together with the sneaky rat that had been with the Department in the past until it was noted on this site. The return to DJJ of such loosers does not indicate that the long-awaited positive change is likely to occur any time soon. I still have hope that Crist and McNeil will clean up the Department state-wide but the selection of Davidson for such a top position does little to instill trust or confidence. ~State Employee
	06/27/07 DJJ Policy: So long as DJJ is staffed and administered with deceivers,incompetent careerists and crooks,we can expect lies, blunders and corruption; with or without the PR bullsh-t "Commission". ~ANONYMOUS
	06/27/07 Miami-Dade JDC: To the Person that Inquired About Miami-Dade, The main problem at Dade is that there is too much ghetto-talkin,low-life, trash employed at one place without quaility on-site leadership and with poor oversight or monitoring from the DJJ higher-ups. You asked he question and that is the true answer. ~See It Everyday
	06/27/07 DJJ Policy: To the Historian, Get real man (or lady). McNeil has already shown himself to be no better than the politically driven parasites that have led DJJ for years. By choosing and/or maintaining the likes of Davison,Pifer,Criswell,Chinault,Floyd,etc ; the Secretary has displayed his true colors. A righteous man would not continue to associate himself with known liars or with those responsible for the injury or death of youth in custody. Davison was chosen because he fits right in with the rest of the DJJ upper-echelon crowd. ~In-Sider
	06/27/07 Other: Regarding the posting on 6/22/2007. Anthony Schembri is teaching at the University of Florida in Gainsville. His bio and other info can be located on the UF website: http://www.clas.ufl.edu/events/news/articles/20070619-schembri.html You'll note that mention is made of his short stint as head of DJJ but little else. He reminds me of Bernie Keric... the disgraced police commissioneer under Rudy Guilianni who was found to have shady business dealings and other unsavory conduct in his past. ~Anonymous
	06/26/07 Miami-Dade JDC: To the writer who wants to know what's wrong at or with Miami Dade, I've got a couple of words for you to consider...: "Under Cover Management Corruption" Starting from the Office of Dobuler flowing all through out of his hired puppets (assistants) There is a lack of consideration given to us hard working officers... but you have a management team that publicaly promotes staff unity, but privately practices divide and conquer staff tactics. Let me encourage my fellow JJDO I and JJDO II that it won't be long, you can only be corrupt for so long, then the light will be shined on your dirty deeds. Hey Delancy, how's Ponder's foot healing? (classic example of CORRUPTION at its best) ~Anonymous
	06/26/07 Gus Barreiro: The quote by Gus Barreiro (in green on this board)is is a bit ironic. Barreiro credits the "success" of the Department to those that have chosen to work for DJJ. This statement has a bit of truth in it but is incomplete. He should also have stated that the dismal failure of the Department to protect the interests of incarcerated youth and the public also lies with those that "work" for DJJ. False reporting,cover-ups,fraudulent fiscal arrangements,poor oversight of contractors,whoring/sluttish behavior at DJJ facilities,and general lack of professional integrity are the hallmarks of DJJ operations in Florida. That's what Barreirro should have said. ~Get it Right
	06/26/07 Charlie Crist: Governor, Will the "Blue Print Commission" review the gross inefficiency of the administration in both DJJ regional and the state offices? The costs associated with positions created for political rather than functional needs like the so-called Office of Accounability and the redundant Director of Education(a DOE responsibility) are prime examples of high-priced fluff. A review of actual and specific work performed by Department officials would indicate that the reasons for DJJ's constant pleas for additional funding include waste,ineffiency,laziness and lack of accountability. ~Tax Payer
	06/25/07 Manatee JDC: The Facts at Manatee Dentention. There was a time when treating people poorly in a State Agency or any agency might have brought about a change once exposed. Manatee is still waiting for that change. Empolyees are never empowered in decision making. Empolyees are told about changes, "Deal with it or find alternate employement". Most have done so. We now are forced into reporting for duty thirty minutes earlier to work to satisfy Gargetts ego once again... Employees are told thier families come second to the job. Manatee is not a fear free environment... ~Anonymous
	06/23/07 DJJ Policy: QUESTION: How have the Regional Residential Directors been able to avoid responsibility for the failure to provide proper health and safety standards in the DJJ facilities under their charge? Even after many violations, mold,abuse,escapes, inappropriate sexual events,injuries and deaths,these incompetent career losers continue to collect a state check. There is no accountability at DJJ...only secrecy,cover-ups and lies. I fear the "commission" will be just more of the same old "show biz". ~Tax Payer
	06/22/07 Other: Say it ain't true! There is a rumor that the Knishe (Anthony Saprano Schembri) has been employed by my beloved University of Florida. If this is true ;they can kiss future donations from this alum goodbye. Hasn't that puffed-up charleton ripped-off our tax-payers enough? The folks back in NYC sent the greedy swine packing because of his dishonest practices at public expense. Our leaders in Florida should do the same. ~Gator
	06/22/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: Did you select Richard Davidson for the position of Asst. Secretary? If so; you made a serious error... You would be wise to take any words from his mouth with a grain of salt and to watch your back in his company. There are many that look to you to clean up the Department. You have the reputation of an honest man. Unfortunetly you are surrounded by liars and crooks. As a career law man you should recognize scam artists and cons... ~DJJ Historian
	06/21/07 Other: Carolyn Floyd continues to be retained by Secretary McNeil as the North Residential Regional Director even though it is well documented by the Department's own audit and newspaper reports that the Residential facilities in and around Jacksonville are some of the very worst facilities in the state. This is proof positive that there is absolutely no accountability in DJJ and Secretary McNeil is not truly committed to change. ~Anonymous
	06/21/07 DJJ Policy: Suggestion for the Commission: DJJ should include very clear and specific standards for maintenance and acceptable levels of sanitation and cleanness for all DJJ facilities in the contracts... unambiguous and specific requirements along with... true and honest monitoring might actually result in non-stinking toilets and clean sleeping quarters and perhaps even a grundge and mold-free environment... ~Anonymous
	06/21/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: ...What's the latest on the "commission"? Will this group be any different than past "planning/advisory" groups that included the likes of Chinault,Fontaine and Eggers... Hopefully the group will address the need for honest evaluations,record-keeping,and accountability at DJJ as a top priorty item. Simple integrity has been the primary missing element at DJJ... ~Capital Watcher
	06/21/07 Miami-Dade JDC: What is wrong Miami Dade Detention Center. Please someone post the truth!!! ~Anonymous
	06/20/07 Escambia JDC: Staff at Escambia detention has not had leave for 2 years,yet they double on 3 times per week,is this in violations? All staff at Escambia do not get lunch breaks,just J.Lee and K. Moore get lunch, is this in violation?Of all the staff that work in that facility they are the only ones that get to eat.How can a person that work in a facility for the state have charges and suppose to be an Assistance Superintendent of Operations,there is one at Escambia,J. Lee,if she can have charges and work as a superintendent,why can't other people… ~Anonymous [NOTE FROM J4K: Message forwarded to DJJ's McNeil]
	06/20/07 Other DJJ facility: Hats off to the Jacksonville Times Union for reporting on the terrible condition of DJJ sites in Northeast Florida. Too bad mother Trib is less observant of such matters around here. I can assure you that in the arena of dirty facilities,security lapses and doctored log books the Northeast has nothing on the Central Region. When it comes to stinking restrooms, dirty dorms,routine cover-ups and general sleaze our region is second to none. ~Riverside
	06/20/07 DJJ Policy: The recent murder trials and convictions from 1960's civil rights killings raises the question of whether it would be possible to revisit the cruel and brutal deaths,physical abuse and neglect of kids in DJJ facilities in past years. Perhaps the DJJ officials that failed to protect the youth in custody can still be brought to trial. At least they could be fired. Willie,Shawn,Danny,Omar,Martin and others deserve justice. ~Parent
	06/19/07 Riverside Academy: I think the problem at riverside is a need for a strong executive director. Jason is not the answer for Riverside nor [D]. [D] should not be around boys if you ask me. How can a gay man lead boys the right wat. ~Anonymous
	06/19/07 DJJ Policy: To Tax Payer, You make a very good point about the need for better management by DJJ of the big-time contracted providers but you miss the main issue altoghther. DJJ exists to serve the political and monetary interests of ex-legisltors and other lobbyists,career bureaucrats and corporate fat-cats. Troubled kids,their families and the tax-paying public are simply not top priorty concerns at DJJ. Just take a look at the Department's administrative staff across the state. Would any upright organization maintain such a collection of self-serving loosers? ~Old Timer - DJJ from the Get Go
	06/19/07 DJJ Policy: The disclosure by the Jacksonville newspaper of the deplorable conditions in the DJJ facilities in NE Florida was an indicator that all of the "truth warrior" reports on this board have been accurate. Conditions similar or worse than those reported exist state-wide. Let's see if any of the DJJ bigshots responsible for these disgusting events is fired for corruption or incompetence. Don't hold your breath. ~DJJ Insider
	06/18/07 DJJ Policy: Our state's love affair with privatization of public services and contracting with for-profit companies to manage youth correctional facilities can only be effective when an honest strict system of oversight by state officials/monitors is maintained to protect public interests and the welfare of the youth. DJJ has failed to properly monitor the heavily-lobbied,big money outfits that hold the majority of the DJJ contracts.Corruption and fraud along with slovenly perfromance and incompetence have placed incarcerated youth at risk. Lying,concealing infractions,and spinning the facts have been the path to career advancement at DJJ for years. Florida deserves better! ~Tax Payer
	06/16/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: To Chief McNeil, Why hasn't Pifer been held accountable for the deplorable conditions and operations at so many detention facilities? Why hasn't Criswell been brought to account for the sanitized and manipulted QA evals at the very sites where abuse,contamination and death subsequently occurred? Where is the accountability that Ms.Davis' expensive job was created to address (remember that story?)? How have the incompetent regional directors maintained their positions in spite of repeated incidents of questionable fiscal practices, on-going contractual violations by providers,abuse and mold? We don't need a new blueprint. We need capable and ethical leadership at DJJ. ~Tax Payer
	06/15/07 Other: i would like to receive the grant and coumputer to investagate the drug companys that are not certified to sell drugs in our county. The over site committee offered a 3,000 doller grant and gov cumputer to do this helpful information..please contact me....asap ~laura aviani laura_aviani@hotmail.com 541 4595423 [J4K sent this reply: I have no clue what you are writing about. What grant in what county? ~Cathy]
	06/15/07 Other: [Dozier 46 years ago] THE HORRORS OF THE WHITE HOUSE: In 1961, my mother was contacted by the school authorities who talked her into assigning me to the Florida School for Boys at Marianna, Florida. She thought it was some kind of summer camp or something. I was taken away to this “reform school” where I remained for 14 months... I never experienced such cruelty, many young boys whom I knew did. This only illustrates the living conditions and fear under which we survived while there… ~Robert Edward Littlefield edlittlefield@hotmail.com 850-535-0556
	06/14/07 Other: please check out myspace.com/willimino or type justice 4 willie jr. Thank you! ~Anonymous
	06/14/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: dont we as staff have the right to feel safe during work. i dont and most of my fellow staff feel the same way. if we are not safe then what are we supposed to do? do you fear for your safety when you go to work every day? i dont think so. you are going about this the wrong way. oh great just what we need another stuffed shirt. havent we learned from the last secretary that there has to be a differnt approach than the one we seem to take every time a new boss gets hired. ~Anonymous
	06/14/07 DJJ Policy: Recent media accounts (see news clips this site) indicate that (remarkably) DJJ's own audits had discovered numerous instances of very serious threats to the security,safty and health of youth and staff assigned to DJJ facilities... It appears that the practice of falsifying logs,maintaining dirty and moldy living areas, and failing to provide quaility staff exist state-wide. Question: Will the violating providers maintain state contracts... ~Tax Payer II
	06/13/07 Charlie Crist: If they are sincere and honest,in their efforts, the for-profit providers,lobbyists and so-called advocates that plea for additional funding for DJJ facilities should in all cases also condemn of the corrupt practices ,lies and cover-ups that have allowed mold contamination,false rosters/logs, thefts, phoney QA reports,bullying,injuries/assualts and deaths to occur at DJJ facilities across the state. Additional money in the hands of corrupt corporate interests (CSC,G4S,etc) and wasteful officials will do little to correct deficiencies at DJJ. ~Concerned Floridian
	06/13/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: Unless Brogan's planning group will have authority to recommnend the dismissal of the self-serving bureaucrats and liars at DJJ...forget it! Without competent professional supervision and honest accountability,there can be no credibility. The idea of a select group to advise DJJ has a very familiar ring to it. We've seen that act before. Secretary McNeil, remember your words "the jury is out". Words are cheap...the state awaits action on reform and a cleansing of a corrupt department. ~Tax Payer
	06/12/07 DJJ Policy: Sooner or later a kid or staff will die at Mandala. The place is a pit and no one seems to care. ~ANONYMOUS
	06/11/07 Miami-Dade JDC: Ponder hater's!! Why is it so important for you to write about her... If you have that much time on your hands to pay attention to her business you must don't have any of your own!! There is a old saying" there are 12 months in a year, you have 6 months to attended to yours...and 6 months to mind your own business"... ~Anonymous
	06/11/07 Other DJJ facility: This is in reference to the person that posted on the board for 6/4//07... You say that you are going to quit if things don't get better, you are absolutely right that these kids are dangerous and unruly towards staff, but yet the STATE OF FLORIDA require that staff take what they issue to us and be happy. You're right we chose this job profession however since we are here please make it safe for your employees. Though it doesn't matter to you guys in Tallahassee, be mindful that we are somebody's parents and children. How would it feel to you if someone called your mother and stated that your child has been killed... ~Anonymous
	06/11/07 DJJ Policy: It would be advisable for folks not to allow themselvs to expect much from Brogan and the so-called "commission". This action has all the earmarks of another political dog and pony show. A PR sideshow for media/public consumption may provide short-term cover for the ineptitude and corruption in the Department. Any genuine " blue print" for positive change at DJJ must begin with honest accountability and ethical leadership in key roles. ~Tax Payer
	06/11/07 Other DJJ facility: Mandala yeah everbody loves that place attempted murder charges brought against one of their former fixed clients, reoffending by about 90 percent of their former fixed clients it just doesn't get better than that. when is the qa going to see them for what they r staff is underpaid and undertrained and undereducated. staff kicked a kid so bad his foot was swollen, after release kid was asked why he didn't report it, stated afraid of retribution they do treat squealers real bad in there. get rid of the program director and most of the staff and maybe the place will have a fighting chance, no pun intended. ~Just tryin' to fix it
	06/09/07 Miami-Dade JDC: To those who are nauseated by the conditions and the staffing (including administration) at Dade and other JDCs, blame Pifer and the brass in Tallahassee that allow such ignorant, disgusting, and dangerous situations to exist. Sadly, Dade isn't the only state-funded "whorehouse" operated directly or contracted by DJJ. The amount and frequency of crude,immoral,and illegal events among DJJ personnel and contracted provider staff both on and off duty is a disgrace and an embarrassment to our state. ~Concerned Parent
	06/09/07 Charlie Crist: Governor Crist, You don't need a "commission" or committee to identify what is desperately needed at DJJ. Just review the performance of the incompetent,lazy,doofus,leadership in the regional offices and the secretive manipulators in Tallahassee that have allowed false reporting,cover-ups and faulty programming to continue. DJJ leadership in past years has been motivated only by personal gain and political expediency. Even now many DJJ officials are the same old crooks. Forget the "commission"; just get rid of the bums. ~Seen it All
	06/08/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: Secretary McNeil, Thank you for requesting a review of DJJ bidding and contracts by the Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink. Apparently you are aware of the long-time presence of bid-rigging and inside deals between DJJ officials and the heavily lobbied corporate contractors (Securicor,YSI,CSC,Premier,FJJA,etc.). Poor oversight and monitoring of contractors by DJJ and wide-scale corrupt practices have been costly in both money and blood. Reform of the fiscal funtions and of program oversight should come before any increases in funding. Don't throw good state money after bad. ~Tax Payer I
	06/08/07 Miami-Dade JDC: If Ponder is all that why can't she get her own man? Delancy has a LADY and a family and has for awhile. And you don't come close to her. You make the good women out here look really bad W**E! Go to EAP ! ~Anonymous*
	06/07/07 Other: To Frank Brogan and the Commission, There does not appear to be a standard of ethics and professional conduct at DJJ? Seriously...the general public would be shocked to learn what low-life type individuals staff DJJ facilities across the state. Improper language, extramarital and/or deviant sexual behavior, poor professional appearence/bearing and work ethics exist at many facilities. Inept,lazy and corrupt DJJ career leadership does little to effectively monitor or correct problem areas until after a crisis occurs. ~Longtime DJJ
	06/07/07 Milton Girls Facility: ...On June 06,2007 i received a phone call telling me my daughter have beat the s*t out of a staff work . I respond whats wrong with my child they said they don't know... Still to this day i don't know what happen to her i just know she were taken down and the Santa Rosa officer inform me she had brusers to her left arm . If we the parents cann't brusers them why should it be alright for them to do it.My daughter wrote me and the girls in the facality a letter informing me that they...blackmail the girls... ~Latasha Dean P.O. Box 147 Cantonment,Fl.32533*
	06/07/07 Miami-Dade JDC: Let's get one thing straight, no one is hating on Ponder, because if she or even you think that what she has (Pretty boy David)is the good stuff you both will soon find out how quick and fast he will throw her under the bus to save his own image. Trust me Ponder you're not the first one who have been sold that bull sht dream. The only thing your fling with Delancy does it shows the lack of integrity and professionalism that exits within Dade's Administration Team. How's the foot healing, what's next? ~Anonymous*
	06/06/07 Other: I also saw Schembri on the Hannity and Colmes show last week. He made a couple inane and rather obvious comments about gangs and families. I think they cut his air time short because of his comical appearence and his lack of significant data. I am now waiting to see Charley Chervanik on the "What's my Line Show". Is he really a cabana boy at the waterfront estates of the Sunshine Boys? Many DJJ facility staff seem to be regulars on the"Springer show". I'd like to see the whole Department appear on "Truth or Consequence". Now that would be a heck of a show. ~TV TRIVIA
	06/06/07 Charlie Crist: DJJ exists in an environonment characterized by secrecy,fear and retribution.Brogan and his "commission" will have difficulty obtaining truthful accounts and honest data related to DJJ operations. It would have been impossible to select a more political inside operator than Frank Brogan to head up a political charade. Lets all hope for the best but keep your eyes open. DJJ is in drastic need of massive turnover and reform. To be effective...the commission must be strong,independent and tough. ~Capital Watcher
	06/05/07 Charlie Crist: I am anxious to see who will be serving on the new DJJ planning commission. A few former inmates would be a wise choice for membership as would some parents and some teachers. There should also be a good representation of floor staff. Let's just hope that the "usual suspects" from FJJA and the other reps of the corporate fat cats and incompetent DJJ officials will not dominate the activity. Most of the old-line DJJ "leadership" types are corrupt beyond redemption and could only contaminate the process with lies,excuses,and selfish concerns. ~Insider
	06/05/07 DJJ Secretary McNeil: Even if the "DJJ Blueprint Commission" is clean and independent,it will be difficult to address the entrenched career bureaucrats that still hold many significant positions in the regional offices and in the DJJ Tallahassee offices. Much efficiency and overall improvement in the Department could be achieved simply by eliminating lazy,dishonest and ineffective individuals. DJJ needs a good enema more than it needs anymore political grandstanding or commissions. ~Tax Payer II
	06/04/07 DJJ Policy: Did anyone ever check out the "satisfactory" and "superior" QA scores that were achieved at the very sites where contamination,assualts, and brutal deaths occurred? Criswell and Davis have enabled hazardous conditions to exsist by failing to aggressively evaluate and report deficit areas. ~Anonymous
	06/04/07 Charlie Crist: ...The proposed "Blueprint Commission" on DJJ issues has the ring of suggestions that have repeatedly been put forth by J4K contributors. An outside group that operates in the sunshine without undo political or financial influence has been a long-standing need. Hopefully we will not see the powerful profit-seeking interest groups (Securicor,CSC,YSI,Premier) and their agents pollute the process. Many feel that the problems at DJJ have been the result of lapses in character and integrity... ~Tax Payer
	06/04/07 Other DJJ facility: I've worked in both detention and residential. They are both are dangrous enviroments... The youth of today are more aggressive and violent. These poor workers are worried about who sleep with who, who cares. You all need to be worrried about your lives... They(the youths) get to call abuse on you and press charges. Police and other law officers carry mace and have more training. We do not have anything but bare hands and keys. Remember these are murders and rapist,that we take care of everyday... I tried talking to the previous secretary... ~another worker bee
	06/04/07 Other: ...djj only attracts what they are willing to pay for. the money at first doesnt seem to bad... but once they see what is involved they soon realize that it is nowhere what they are willing to accept.Djj wants staff that are not going to yell at the kids, not put their hands on them, talk down to them or make them feel uncomfortable... but due to the rules in place their is no discipline or structure whatsoever.as a result these children, when left unsupervised(in a type of way) will feed off of eachother... ~Anonymous
	06/04/07 Charlie Crist: Governor crist, Isn't it obvious to eveyone (everyone that cares) that Pifer has been a total failure at Detention? Seriously , what does it take to get rid of these career,bureaucratic wastrels? DJJ leadership remains the domain of self-serving political shills. Expect more tragadies. Given the leadership in the regions,the lack of adequate oversight and the continuing corruption;even more tragic consequences at DJJ are a certainty. ~INSIDER
	06/04/07 Miami-Dade JDC: The best advice I can give officer Ponder is find your own man. Captain Delancy has been taken for a long time. If his real girl doesn't know about you two she will. And he won't choose you dummy. The both of you will pay for what you are doing. Especially Mr. White shirt. So do yourself a favor and wake up and have some dignity about yourself. Just stop the slutty behavior. We look bad already we don't need another woman with no morals at our center. ~Anonymous
	06/03/07 Miami-Dade JDC: I see you haters or all over ponder. Dont get mad cause she got the good Stuff!! You can't help it, if Delancey got whipped over that hot ass Female. Ponder keep doing you...... ~Anonymous
	06/03/07 DJJ Policy: Dove Academy is far from the worst of the DJJ facilities. One of the ugliest secrets of the Schembri/Bankhead eras is the filthy,moldy,poorly staffed pits DJJ has allowed to operate in this state.Most SPCAs and Humane Societies for animals are better managed and definetely cleaner and safer. Sad to say this problem has not been rectified under McNeil and Crist. An honest and open review of the past practices of foul operators Ramsy/Premier,Securicor/G4S, CSC,YSI,Sunshine,Mandela, many JDCs and others will provide ample evidence of the corruption that has long existed among DJJ and the greedy DJJ profit-seeking contractors... ~Tax Payer
	06/02/07 Other: I couldn't believe my eyes ; there he was on the Hannity and Colmes show(FOX network), none othger than, our dear old "Knishe" Schembri. Introduced as a former police commissioner he spared this state the embarrassment of revealing his Florida connection on national TV. His oft-repeated simplistic statements of the obvious and Buddy Hacket-like speaking style were something less than impressive on the show and he was quickly dismissed by the hosts. Still, the old boy deserves credit for having the balls to show his face in public after presiding over a corrupt and abuse/death plagued DJJ and after being fired from his two previous jobs ( NYC and DJJ). Hang in there "Knishe". ~Fox Fan
