Former Albuquerque Police Chief (Ray Schultz) violated law
State auditor's report: Former APD chief violated law in securing Taser contractThe New Mexico State Auditor released a scathing report Thursday, stating former Albuquerque Police Department Chief Ray Schultz broke the law and violated ethics guidelines when he secured a contract between APD and Taser International.
"In former Chief Schultz's own words, we confirmed that this contract was essentially 'greased,' and that was the term he used in emails to describe what he did with this contract," State Auditor Tim Keller said at a press conference. "This illustrates many problems that we believe are systematic in terms of the tone of the top at the police department and at the city that allowed these issues to transpire."
