The Midway Police Department: Trying to pull itself from beneath the shadow of corruption.

INTERDEPARTMENTAL RELATIONS

By BRAD LASSITER

and MACE CALHOUN

Brad Lassiter: There we go.

Sorry about that. I hope I don’t

run out of tapes before we’re done.

[laughter] Now, before the break, we

were just getting into the discussion

of the political side of police work.

How all these different agencies

work together, or don’t work

together, as in the Belinda Miller

murder case.

Mace Calhoun: Well, see, the

ﬁrst thing you have to remember

is that individual police ofﬁcers,

except for the really crooked ones,

see themselves as law enforcement

agents ﬁrst and foremost, as opposed

to “public ofﬁcials.” But as you

advance up the food chain from

beat ofﬁcer to lieutenant to captain

to police chief, your decisions tend

to be based less on solving speciﬁc

cases and more on doing what is

politically advantageous. That’s

not to say that the chief of police

doesn’t care about crime. Even

the most venal police chief knows

a high crime rate is certainly bad

Excerpts from a May 2005 interview of

Midway Tribune crime reporter Mace

Calhoun as conducted by Brad Lassiter,

a junior journalism major attending

Midway University. Mr. Calhoun has

recently retired after 37 years in the

journalism profession, during which he

received numerous awards for his crime

reporting, including a Pulitzer nomination

for investigative reporting for his series on

the 1987 Citadel Heights police brutality

scandal in Midway.

good news coverage. Meanwhile,

violent crime in the projects

continues to escalate, even as more

resources are diverted to protecting

upper-class, white neighborhoods.

The problem is made worse by

the competing interests of other

law enforcement agencies, which

often try to undermine each other’s

authority out of a desire for a public

relations boost or simply out of petty

animosity.

We have four basic entities to

keep track of when we’re talking

about law enforcement in Midway:

the city police, the various county

the city police, the various county mayor indicating his views on

sheriff’s departments (most

prominently, Washington County),

the state police and the feds. We’ll

start with the Midway PD. The

head of the MPD is currently Police

Chief Elliot Tyler, who has been

on the job for about two years, so

I’m still making up my mind about

him. The police chief is a political

appointee who serves at the pleasure

of the mayor, and, consequently,

the job requires a politician much

more than a brilliant criminologist.

The appointment of a new police

chief is also a statement by the

mayor indicating his views on

INTERDEPARTMENTAL RELATIONS

for his job prospects. It’s just that,

at a certain career level, you tend

to prioritize cases based on how

they’ll affect your coverage on the

nightly news. As the saying goes,

“if it bleeds, it leads,” so the crimes

that get the highest priority are the

crimes that most frighten middle-

and upper-class whites: rape, robbery

and murder, especially in white

neighborhoods. Drug crimes are also

a big deal, especially in and around

the public school systems. Narcotics

and prostitution sweeps always give

POLITICAL PUPPET OR PUBLIC SERVANT? : Many speculate that

the appointment of Police Chief Elliot Tyler was a “cave in” to the

mayor’s afﬂ uent (and mostly white) political campaign contributors.

After two years on the job, crime in the predominantly poor parts of

town have increased while police presence in these areas has decreased.
