A Tale Of Two Towns

Nov 24, 2021 Stephen Krauchick

Yesterday, I told you about Bridgeport Police Chief Rebecca Garcia taking drinkable water from her officers while she just got a newly furnished office. This type of petty conduct is the exception to the rule. A couple of weeks ago the Southport section of Fairfield had a robbery along with a few stolen cars. Fairfield Police Chief Bob Kalamaras held a safety meeting with citizens and town officials. He lead the meeting off by saying "We have an incredible police force. The police force is made up of one hundred and eight men and women, and we are fortunate that we have good benefits, and good salaries, and that supports higher quality candidates and higher retention rates throughout our police…

Bridgeport Police Chief: No Water For You!

Nov 23, 2021 Stephen Krauchick

Another source came forward and said Chief Rebecca Garcia got all new furniture in her office last month. With Thanksgiving upon us, you really wouldn’t think that drinking water at work would be something to be thankful for. That is the case at the Bridgeport Police Department. A number of sources said that right after the courts ruled that the city was wrong to name Rebeca Garcia as assistant police chief in 2019 the water deliveries stopped. Officers checked into whether it was a non-payment issue but I’ve learned that the chief told the union that “potable drinking water” is not a requirement. I reached out to union president Brad Sealy, I left a voice mail that said I reached…
