State trooper sues Taser over broken leg

A state police trooper is suing Taser International Inc., claiming a shocking product demonstration fractured his femur - rebreaking a bone that had snapped just two years prior in a horrific pileup on the Mass. Pike.

Trooper James J. Foley, 38, says he disclosed to a Taser representative that he had a metal rod in his left leg before he and other law enforcement officers tested the company’s X26 “electronic control device,” according to a federal lawsuit filed yesterday.

After the February 2006 seminar, his leg throbbing with pain, Foley went to the hospital - where an X-ray showed a new fracture and a surgical screw “bent at almost 90 degrees,” said Thomas Healy, Foley’s attorney. The lawsuit filed by Foley and his wife seeks unspecified damages.

Taser faced about 40 lawsuits, six of them involving training injuries, as of Sept. 30, according to the Scottsdale, Ariz.-based company’s most recent quarterly financial report.

But Taser hadn’t yet received official notice of Foley’s lawsuit yesterday. “We do not comment on pending litigation - especially when we have not been served,” spokesman Steve Tuttle said.

According to the lawsuit, Foley signed a release in which Taser said its devices are non-lethal but “involve a degree of risk.”

Foley was first zapped unintentionally while spotting for another participant and then shocked twice during his voluntary “Taser exposure” - which many officers withstand to better understand the device’s effect on people.

“Usually the person who claims injury as a result of Taser exposure is a criminal suspect,” Healy said. “In this case, obviously, it’s a law enforcement officer simply trying to do his job and learn about the technology.”

Foley attended the seminar to evaluate the device for the state police, whose troopers have never been equipped with Tasers, according to state police spokesman David Procopio.

The state police made a “final decision” to not use Tasers after Foley’s reinjury, he said.

“It’s not a weapon we needed to add to our arsenal,” Procopio said. “The decision is not going to be changed.”

Foley, who joined the state police in 1999, had a second surgery and is now on active duty patroling the highways.

He returned to work about a year after he suffered a broken leg and ribs in a four-car crash on the Pike in Auburn in March 2004. A pinned Foley was saved by two fellow troopers, James Coakley and Ruben Colon, who put out flames shooting from the cruiser’s engine compartment.

Weird one

According to this, a guy regularly walks to a supermarket, eats three donuts, pays cash, and leaves. One day, an SO accuses the guy of shoplifting and bans him from the store. The guy had thrown out his receipt, but offered to show the SO the receipt in the trash, which the SO did not want to do (of course if he paid cash the receipt doesn;t exactly prove anything, unless you want to reveiw the cameras).

What do you guys think of this?

SEIU slanders Avalon

Please see our rebuttal.
SEIU –Not a Responsible UNION!

Washington, DC (July 17, 2008) – The National Right to Work Foundation has formally requested that the U.S. Department of Labor and U.S. Department of Justice open investigations into a campaign fundraising scheme adopted by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) at its recent convention.

Labor Department reportedly joins investigation of SEIU payments
U.S. authorities are examining hundreds of thousands of dollars paid by the union and a related charity to firms owned by relatives of the Los Angeles local’s president, sources say.
By Paul Pringle, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
August 28, 2008
A growing financial scandal in the 2-million-member Service Employees International Union has prompted a federal criminal investigation into the labor organization’s largest California local, sources familiar with the probe say.

U.S. Labor Department authorities are examining payments of hundreds of thousands of dollars by the union and a related charity to firms owned by relatives of the Los Angeles local’s president and expenditures of similar sums on a golf tournament, restaurants, a cigar lounge and entertainment companies, according to people with knowledge of the investigation.
The investigators are also looking into allegations that some union staff members faced retaliation last week after they refused to sign a petition supporting its president, Tyrone Freeman, the sources said.

Union is probing official’s role in ex-boyfriend’s deal; SEIU wants to know whether officer helped ex-local president stay on the county payroll.
The separation deal has since become the focus of an internal SEIU investigation into whether Stephens’ former girlfriend, Annelle Grajeda, a top officer in the union’s national organization, inappropriately used her position to help him remain on the county payroll in 2007. She has denied wrongdoing and is currently on union leave.

Wackenhut: SEIU is rigging security services contracts
Company files suit against SEIU alleging damages of $5 million
Blackwater barred from Iraq

PR Newswire
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., April 11 — The Wackenhut Corporation today filed a civil action against the Service Employees International Union Local 1 responding to the union’s entry into and maintenance of an illegal agreement with the Building Owners and Managers Association of Chicago (BOMA/Chicago).

United Healthcare Workers-West, which represents hospital, long-term care and home-care workers, came about in January 2005 through a merger of SEIU Local 250 in Northern California and SEIU Local 399 in Southern California. Now with roughly 150,000 active members, the union is a major reason why the SEIU now claims a rank and file of 2 million, more than double the figure of a dozen years ago. Yet its collective-bargaining ability appears to have taken a few steps backward. Rosselli argues that this is because SEIU President Andrew Stern and Secretary-Treasurer Anna Burger have ruthlessly consolidated their power and brokered secret deals over the objections of local leaders. The end result is that UHW has more members, but lesser contracts. Agreements with such employers as Aramark and The Compass Group, they say, lock workers into low wages, poor benefits, and a lack of renegotiation rights. Now reinforcements have arrived.

SEIU members in Los Angeles were victimized by one of the most appalling cases of union corruption in recent history.
Members saw their money illegally used to support the city council race of Martin Ludlow. Ludlow was sentenced for conspiracy to illegally funnel money from SEIU Local 99 to his campaign and ordered to pay $36,000 in restitution.
 Four of the last eight Teamsters union presidents have been criminally indicted
 UNITE HERE has been found guilty of invading employees’ privacy and ordered to pay $17 million for defaming medical professionals, and it has been sued by its own employees after the union slashed their staff’s key retirement benefit by 95%
In the same scandal, former SEIU head Janett Humprhies collaborated with Ludlow to use union funds to pay the salaries of six union employees working on his campaign. One of Humphries’ lawyers said Ludlow and allies “were doing what unions do” and added, “The testimony has raised serious red flags about the integrity of union politics in Los Angeles.”
Other recent scandals include:
 In June 2006, the National Labor Relations Board found that SEIU interfered with the free choice of employees by illegally making promises to wave initiation fees – much like the union accuses employers of making promises to employees during union drives.
 In June 2006, a federal judge ordered SEIU Local 1000 to pay $37,000 as punishment for failing to give members adequate information about how the union was spending employees’ agency fees (which are forced payments from employees who do not wish to union members).
 In 2007, members of the powerful Local 503 in Oregon began circulating a petition to recall the union’s president, who was seeking to collect more than $100,000 in back pay that most members think he didn’t earn.
 The Macon Telegraph reported that local SEIU officials lost control of their government-employee union after troubling questions were raised over $30,000 of cash withdrawals from the local’s bank account, lack of documentation for $90,000 in hotel, airline, food, telephone and other expenses, and $36,000 in vacation buyouts that were not authorized by the union’s board.
