I pray not.

Maybe he can get a job in his father's old country - Cuba

 

[Grumps21]

Well that didn’t last very long. The $295k paycheck he was getting from Houston seems excessive. What did he do that justified that kind of pay?

It's good that someone finally saw the scumbag for what he really is and took action. Maybe california has a place for him.

'Maybe I’ll be back' | Art Acevedo hints at return to Texas as he leaves for top cop job in Miami

Art Acevedo might be leaving the Houston Police Department for the top gig in Miami, but he said he wouldn't rule out a Texas return in the future.

That article is old, but I echo your sentiment - hopefully he does NOT find new employment here in Texas. He should look northward - doesn't some New York shithole need a lefty police chief to oversee the violation of people's freedoms?

He started there.
They probably don't want him either.

"According to CBS Miami, there was tension at city hall after the 57-year-old Acevedo had said the police department was run by the ‘Cuban mafia’ and demoted and fired some officers and supervisors."

In other words, Woke Artie didn't like finding conservatives with brown skin in his new department, and tried to put the Cubans back in their place.

Even if they only read the fake news, they shoulda known hiring him was a bad idea....

 

[DoubleDuty]

Exactly his past performance of ruining every police department he is in charge of.

I don't think HPD has just randomly wiped out any families in their home since he left Houston. Didn't Art march with BLM terrorist here as well. What a guy?

 

[General Zod]

You'd have thought him covering for the double murder committed by the corrupt vice division in Houston (including multiple contradictory lies in multiple press conferences) would've blacklisted him. The man is a liability to any department that hires him in any capacity. And that's without even getting into his idiotic political ideas.

 

[DoubleDuty]

His stance against law abiding gun owners makes him completely intolerable.

Awww, now, he only declared that he would order his officers to shoot a law-abiding armed citizen on sight. That's not unreasonable, is it?

Well if he must return to Texas, do any of the Austinites on this forum object to taking one for the team and accepting Art to run your PD? The liberals pretty much ruined Austin anyway, so it’s hard to imagine he could make things any worse then they already are. There’s really no point in allowing him to bring down yet another Texas city when he would fit right in over in Austin. So, what say folks?

Couldn’t have happened to a better person.

Portland, Oregon goes thru a police chief on average every 14-18 months - I'm sure if he waits a minute, there'll be an opening there for him to go **** things up...

no. just no. hell no.
ok, I don't live in Austin, but no.

build a wall on the East Texas border. put him on the 'no fly' list (I mean, if he was threatening a Miami Commissioner, isn't that domestic terrorism?).

 

[Grumps21]

no. just no. hell no.
ok, I don't live in Austin, but no.

So, I take that as a “NO”?

 

[wbblazer90]

Bear with me, as I know nothing of the man. Can someone give me a brief synopsis of the crummy things he has done? Just list them out in bullet points, I’m curious to know.
