Medford Detective Stephen Lebert SKEWERED by the National Press

Detective Stephen LeBert is getting destroyed in the national press.  It is time for Chief Leo Sacco to remove LeBert.

Lebert Unprofessional

The 839 comments on Yahoo thus far are beyond damaging to LeBert’s career. He’s “all done” to quote LeBert himself to the driver who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, facing the psychotic LeBert in all his raging bull glory.l

The crackpot cowboy, LeBert, has quite the resume, and this waterfall of bad news for Muccini-Burke and McGlynn comes just 97 days before election 2015. Perfect timing to help finally remove the last remnants of McGlynn’s ugly Administration.

The Atlantic calls LeBert’s actions road rage in its glaring headline:

The Road Rage of a Narcotics Detective

LEBERT3

The Atlantic

but it is the comments after Yahoo published the Atlantic story that are staggering, 839 and climbing, and almost all unanimously calling for LeBert’s head on a silver platter.

In a city that had a “crooked sheriff” (to quote radio host Howie Carr) – James V,.DiPaola blow his own brains out, allegedly, in a Maine hotel, and with previous bad cop stories, from Officer Jimmy Lee whacking his bisexual girlfriend (not to be confused with Lee’s wife, or the alleged other girlfriend he was on the phone with) to officer Miguel Lopez* (see story below) who was indicted on two counts of witness intimidation with the investigation into the shooting death of a 27 year old Army veteran, well…

…with Day 3 of LEBERTGATE exploding across the national news media, it is only going to snowball in the coming weeks.

LeBert should stand trial.
________________________________________________
An ordinary citizen pulling a violent stunt like the one that LeBert pulled would be destroyed in a court of law  and locked up for a long, long time.
________________________________________________________________
Why should LeBert get any more “special treatment” than he already has received from an Administration in Medford, under the suspicious and unethical Mayor Michael J. McGlynn?

I am sick and tired of the brotherhood of police officers who protect each other when they do bad stuff. the time for this type of stupidity is over. you are civil servants, you are to protect civilians, not each other.

The police officer had no right pulling anyone over in an unmarked car. the rule is in place like that to protect people from non cops pretending to be cops. NEVER pull over for an unmarked car, even if the officer is in uniform, call 911 immediately and move to a populated area.

Is it a coincident that the only two things this detective ever did wrong just happened to be caught on camera? Definitely not! This Medford cop has a bad reputation. Reports also say Lebert was drunk. I am told he does things all the time that put grime on the police badge. Look at the you tube video of the incident where he says “railroad tracks and tell him to lie down”. You can see it in Detective LeBert’s face that he was so mad that he was being video and Lebert wanted to do more but had to restrain himself because of the camera. He even makes accusations that the video taker takes drugs. Lebert instigates the person videoing. Medford is not the best area. It’s a shame that Lebert makes the Medford police look bad. There are so many hard working good Medford police officers. The “put a hole in your head” incident is why I just purchased a dash camera.

I was taught while serving a 22-year career in the military that in order to get RESPECT, one needs to EARN it. Police Officers today appear to me to DEMAND respect. WRONG answer, folks. As long as Law Enforcement Agencies across the United States allow this type of “Abuse of Authority” continue, rogue cops will surely continue to bully citizens, just like the #$%$ in this story.

THIS EXTRAORDINARY STORY WILL CONTINUE TO UNFOLD WITH THOUSANDS OF MORE COMMENTS ON YOUTUBE, ON YAHOO, ON
WICKED LOCAL AND IN MORE MEDIA THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE.
THIS IS THE LEGACY OF MICHAEL J. MCGLYNN, CHARLATAN MAYOR,
AND HIS STAFF THAT COVERS UP SUCH HIDEOUS BEHAVIOR BY THOSE WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO SERVE AND PROTECT US.
