Statement From Rev. Mary Flowers-Spratt
(WCCO)
My message to you is I totally support Lt. Amelia
Huffman 100%
The transfer that the Chief did of Charlie Adams had
nothing to do with "Race"
and Charlie knows that. It was because of his attitude
with his supervisor.
I've known Charlie Adams since he was about 17 years
old. He graduated from
North High
School with my daughter. He is one of the best detectives in
the
Police Department, but he need to work on his attitude,
especially against
women in power.
The message I would send to Charlie is (since I am the
President of my company
AWMIN and Pastor of the Greater Mount Nebo Community
Baptist Church) is
had he gone over one of my supervisors head to the Media
without my permission
he would have either been suspended without pay or
terminated. The Chief
compromised.
We have been working on the (PCRC) Police Community
Relation Council - Federal Mediation Agreement for four years asking the Police
to tell the community the truth
and when we get the truth from a Police Officer just
because she is "White" some of
our folk want to play the race card. "I don't think so".
Lt. Amelia Huffman is one
officer that is fair and again I support her 100%. You
can take that to the bank.
