Riordan on LAPD

Re “Riordan Criticizes Leadership of LAPD, Hints at Drastic Steps,” Feb. 3: With our Police Department a shambles and every type of crime on the rise, as a home-owning taxpayer I would be glad to see Mayor Richard Riordan show true leadership and remove the people he put in place. But seeing how he just gave the police chief a raise for leading a department that has not done what the mayor said should be done back in November, this must be one of those political ploys. Angelenos will continue to be the victims of politicians and criminals.
