Nobody should be above the law, especially POST-certified law enforcement officers. Let alone a police sergeant supervisor. On October 18, 2020, Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Anthony Moschetto was dispatched to the intersection of Centerville Road and Buford Blvd in Tallahassee, Florida, to assist the Tallahassee Police Department with a traffic stop. According to Moschetto’s sergeant, who related the message, the driver, later identified as Morgan Wysocki, was a sergeant with the Leon County Sheriff’s Office and was possibly under the influence of alcohol.
Moschetto arrived on scene at 11:50 p.m. and contacted TPD Officer Jonathan Scott. Scott reported that at 10:56 p.m., he had been operating his marked TPD vehicle, traveling south on Capital Circle at Centerville Rd, when he observed a red 2014 Jeep SUV, stopped on Capital Circle in the left turn lane to Centerville Rd. According to Scott, the vehicle was stopped for a steady red left arrow and proceeded against the red arrow through the intersection, making a left turn onto Centerville Rd. Scott conducted a traffic stop. Events proceeded as shown in this video. According to TPD Sgt. Wagner, he made the decision to turn the investigation over to the Florida Highway Patrol to avoid any conflict of interest due to the close relationship between the Tallahassee Police Department and the Leon County Sheriff’s Department.
Sergeant Morgan Wysocki ultimately pleaded no contest to the charge of driving under the influence. He was adjudicated guilty and sentenced to twelve months of probation with the possibility of early termination, fifty hours of community service (25 of which could be bought out at $10 per hour), DUI School Level I, a six-month driver’s license suspension, the Victim Awareness Program, vehicle impoundment/immobilization for thirty (30) days, court costs and fines, and general conditions of probation. Wysocki had previously been arrested for DUI at the age of 20.

GCA Forums News obtained lapel, dash, and in-car camera footage of a DWI traffic stop involving a Las Cruces Police Department off-duty officer Lourdes Hernandez. A New Mexico State Police officer was patrolling in Las Cruces, NM, and observed a vehicle speeding. The officer activated the radar and verified the speed of MPH in a 55MPH zone.
The officer activated his lights, and the car did not pull over to the shoulder. The officer approached the vehicle with a female subject inside. She stated she was an officer with the Las Cruces Police Department, and her duty gun was inside the glove compartment of the vehicle. The NMSP officer detected a strong odor of alcohol. She had bloodshot eyes and was chewing gum.

The officer asked Hernandez to exit the vehicle. She explained that there was alot going on in her life and got into a fight with her boyfriend. Hernandez denied a field sobriety test and was arrested. She immediately requested a New Mexico State Police supervisor to come to the scene.

The supervisor came on scene and explained the policies of the New Mexico State Police on impounding her car and property. Hernandez stated she did not want to go through the process.
While on the call, the supervisor encountered a male subject who identified himself as a Las Cruces Police Officer and the boyfriend of Hernandez. The sergeant could smell a strong odor of alcohol on his breath. The boyfriend wanted to talk to Hernandez but was denied.
A Las Cruces Police sergeant arrived on scene and retrieved Hernandez’s police-issued firearm and property. She was then taken to jail to be booked.
Hernandez was charged with aggravated DWI first offense refused testing, speeding, and negligent use of a deadly weapon (intoxication).

Another off duty cop who thinks he is above the law and has was absolutely confident if he got pulled over for suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI), the cop pulling him over would most definitely extend professional courtesy and turn the other way. Well, the drunk cop has thought wrong. Yes, Sir. Off duty cops are not above the law anymore. Police officers extending professional courtesy of. Off duty cops are taking a huge risks not just getting discovered by his supervisors at his department but the Chief of Police and the community finding out about it. Every drunk driving suspect needs to get tested and confirmed that the arresting police officer is absolutely convinced the driver the cop pulled over is sober and alert before the cop decides the motorist is no longer detained

If the cop let’s the motorist go without testing the motorist for DUI because the violator is an Off Duty cop, and the drunk cop gets into an accident which one or more passengers of the vehicle he crashed into, the cop that gave the motorist professional courtesy and cut him loose is going to be in a shitloads of trouble and potentially get fired by his police department, face official misconduct, and will get charged with involuntary felony manslaughter if there were a death involved. With that said, it’s best all cops should abide by the law and be a good law abiding citizen and police officer.

The Implementation of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) at state and local levels comes with the following caveat risks:

Resource Allocation Issues

Financial Limitations:

• While implementing DOGE at state and local levels could be ideal, funding such entities would challenge local governments, especially during budget constraints.

Hiring Problems:

• Smaller jurisdictions may find it tough to source qualified and experienced efficiency and management personnel, which may pose an issue in establishing DOGEs.

Political Obstacles

Bureaucratic Opposition:

• More powerful existing bureaucracies may resist DOGE initiatives because they fear losing ‘power’ or influence.

Political Agenda:

• Political lines can be an obstacle when seeking bipartisan support for funding and creating lower-tier DOGEs.

Unmet Expectations

Diverse Needs Per Jurisdiction:

• Each jurisdiction has different challenges and requirements, making implementing DOGE without tailoring it to the local jurisdiction’s needs impossible.

Strategy Modification:

• Meeting the objectives of DOGE in local contexts may require more time and resources than originally thought.

Function Within Existing Agencies

DOGE as a New Agency:

• Establishing DOGE as a new agency with its functional responsibility will complicate existing government structures.

Communication Gap:

• Interagency collaboration between DOGE and other agencies is essential.
• Still, if established communication channels do not exist, collaboration can be a challenge.

Accountability and Oversight

Protecting Autonomy:

• It is difficult to ensure local DOGE bodies are autonomously free from political domination.

Public Confidence:

• Gaining public confidence in DOGE’s functionality and neutrality at the local level can be time-consuming, especially with pre-existing local governance challenges.

Measuring Success

Defining Metrics:

• Formulating precise measures of success and efficiency is problematic.
• This is especially where output might differ considerably from local realities.

Long-Term Sustainability:

• It is rather difficult to show the prolonged value of DOGE’s endeavors, especially without visible results in the short term.

These issues may be addressed to enable the effective realization of the potential benefits to government effectiveness and accountability that the local and state expansion of DOGE has, but it comes with many issues. Every context is different, and understanding what resources are needed and what the political environment is like to encourage establishing entities similar to DOGE will be crucial.

Your views about the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and how it may change the government’s efficiency and accountability raises pertinent issues. These are some of the highlights:

Integrity and Accountability

Self-Policing:

• The premise that organizations ought to possess self-policing capabilities is vital.
• Accountability at every level is critical in averting corruption, fraud, and unethical behavior.

External Oversight:

• The presence of independent teams to audit activities within government agencies can improve scrutiny and objectivity, reducing the chances of conflict of interest.

Leadership

Elon Musk’s Appointment:

• How you view Elon Musk’s qualifications to lead DOGE shows that you may believe in a fresh approach to leadership.
• His experience in technology and business can also offer new ideas on how government can work more efficiently.

Expansion of DOGE

Implementation by local and state:

• The proposal for DOGE-type bodies to be created at lower levels of government may also promote efficiency and accountability at those levels.
• Customizing these bodies to meet the problems and needs of various jurisdictions could improve their functions.

Independent Investigations

Arm’s Length Investigations:

• Local and state DOGEs could use external persons or teams to conduct investigations, guaranteeing that the members are not influenced by internal factors and ensuring credible results.

A New Norm?

Sustainable Practices:

• Suppose DOGE successfully increases the efficiency and accountability of government services.
• In that case, it may encourage the emergence of similar organizations at different government tiers.
• This would foster a new normal of transparency and responsibility in public service.

Creating DOGE and such organizations may form a paradigm shift in enhancing government operations integrity and efficiency. With a focus on accountability and innovative leadership, these organizations could foster public trust and enhance government service effectiveness. Your independently supervised governance vision could create a more accountable and transparent governance system at all levels.

Cross-Party Support:

• Show that constituents from either side of the political fence will benefit from efficiency initiatives and garner cross-party support.

Effective Communication

Articulate the Benefits:

• Explain how the initiative will enhance service attendance, streamline processes, save money, and bolster accountability.

Use Data and Success Stories:

• Use data and success stories from other jurisdictions to reinforce the initiative’s positive potential.

Pilot Programs

Small Scope Demonstration:

• Begin with small-scope demonstration programs and broaden the pilot areas as acceptance increases.

Gradual Implementation:

• You can build confidence over time by allowing changes to be made after initial feedback during the implementation.

Outreach to Civic Society

Educate the Public:

• Educate the public about the initiative while clearing misconceptions.

Enable Civic Participation:

• Show the administration a willingness to listen to the community by enabling feedback.

Fitting In With Provided Objectives

Connect to Active Programs:

• Try to connect the initiative with other objectives in line with the local government’s existing economic development, public safety, and sustainability objectives.

Leverage Existing Programs:

• Try to integrate the initiative within the existing and more familiar programs and frameworks to avoid the need for drastic changes.

Showing Off Results

Highlight Quick Wins:

Engage In Active Participation

Identify Real Concerns:

• Talk to the enemies and try to dissect the precise issues so that there can be productive dialogue to solve them.

Open to Modify Compromise:

• Accept that some modifications can make the initiative more appealing to opposed groups.
• One needs a multifaceted collaboration, communication, and public engagement strategy to tackle political opposition successfully.

By integrating numerous objectives and showcasing real-life results, initiative supporters can successfully earn the requisite backing to enact efficiency initiatives.
