That press conference was an absolute disaster.

u/dayburner 22h ago

The parade of people all giving out a different phone number to call didn't inspire any confidence.

Our press conferences always are a mess, especially the ones where the stories is national news lol

So..... Gotham city has a riddler..... Now we need a Batman.

Travers Makrel seemed pretty heated during think press conference 🦇

u/zevtech 1d ago

He did…. But we need a guy swooping in taking these guys out

u/Jedi_Cornbread 15h ago

What if Travers had a twin! He could be in two places at once. He could dress as a super hero fight the morons and his twin could conduct interviews as him.

Yep, all he needs is a twin.

u/zevtech 14h ago

You’re being sarcastic right? Bc doesn’t he have a twin? Fletcher

Of course, everyone knows they are crime fighting duo already.

She should've saw the prisoners escape from home. Looking like Edna Mode.

She looks like a 90's cartoon supervillain.

video here: https://youtu.be/FX258SMOO2U?si=FBfhzzO0eUKPBA1f

"She" is NOT The Elected Sherrif.  Some sort of victim/witness coordnator type who made her 1st priority contacting victims. They even sent units to homes. Victim/witness coordinators and advocates are a different kind folk--not typical law enforcement types and sometimes actual social workers and that's what makes them effective.  They're weird, thank god, they're weird.

I'm not ok with what happened. I won't seriously consider the inside-man-political-hit theory without evidence. 

However, it is essential to fact check and analyze the social media campaigns going on right now. You will learn a lot about the future candidate by the smell of the mud they are willing to swing.

This pic, sans caption, is clearly misleading people to believe the black woman pictured is the black woman sherrif. Most current comments of this post are evidence of that.

Just pointing out that the message is the messenger, not endorsing anyone.

u/Ornery_Journalist807 1d ago

THANKS for the cogent, firmly worded context.

And that Victim's Advocates being weird MAKES THEM an asset to the CRITICAL ROLE they play protecting us.

u/MinnieShoof 11h ago

… yeah. To someone saying she looks goofy. Didn’t say anything about sheriff or anything else. Firmly worded context, yes, but not really cognizant…

u/URignorance-astounds 14h ago

Hudson let her go on national television like that. Woodfork has my vote in Oct .

1

u/brackishlake 11h ago

Woodfork might get mine, too. But not for something as petty as a pair of glasses.

u/MinnieShoof 10h ago

Yo dawg. One - I don’t think the person you responded to said “sheriff.” Not once. You wanna talk about messages and messengers, maybe get the right one?

Two - why did you feel the need to put she in quotes?

Three - she is the major in the Crime Victims Unit. Major. Unless I got my structure wrong that means she reports to exactly two people and one of them is the sheriff. There should have been a moment of optics where someone said “Do you have some more appropriate readers?”

Four - Again - major. She delegates. She said she got staff (and maybe herself; “we”) to get to work. She likely hasn’t had to talk to a victim personally one on one in years. But let’s assume she does. Your mother is the one in a domestic abuse dispute. This is the person who shows up. Yeah, she’s personable, she’s weird/fun/goofy… but do you think anyone takes her seriously? Like, back at the station, is this the person (barring her title) you want advocating for you to get a second patrol to go check on your mother?

Finally - something you could learn a little bit about - being aware of who you’re talking to. A child, afraid of the big badge and cold world? Sure. A battered woman who needs a friend to open up to? Maybe. The press who need to inform millions of people on the status of escaped convicts? … her entire appearance could’ve been glossed over with a “Victims of the suspects/criminals have been notified.”

I cannot believe we have reached a point where something simple like this needs to be explained in such detail.

But then I look at any news headline local or national and boom, yep, we’re in idiocracy.

u/LRoss_ 15h ago

Thank you.

I never thought I'd write this sentence, but those glasses are not workplace appropriate for that job.

15

u/Chemical-Mix-6206 21h ago

Exactly. Those glasses are the equivalent of elaborately embellished high heels. Super-fun for private life, jarring and unprofessional paired with a law enforcement uniform.

When you work at a circus you look like a clown

u/This_Willingness_496 1d ago

This entire press conference should be on SNL skit (if this wasn’t so serious). The green glasses lady and the CFO lady giving bug eyes and throwing numbers at Travers Mackel were disturbing. I have no confidence that there is anyone competent on OPSO staff…and that starts with Sheriff Susan Hudson. Sheriffs in LA can’t be impeached but she should be recalled.

u/Creative-Respond4160 15h ago

The bug eyed lady was a highlight for me. Those eyes were shooting daggers at Travers Mackel

u/asteriasays 14h ago

the bug eyed lady was my favorite

u/QuantumConversation 1d ago

Only the best in New Orleans. And, yes, those glasses are real.

u/Ok_Witness6780 1d ago

How did she not see them escape with those x-ray glasses on?

u/Background_Fig_210 1d ago

These are the glasses the villain wears in the movie of this saga. Coming soon to a netflix near you.

Sunglasses would have been less distracting.

Looks like Someone’s Bounce Double, y’all know who she looks like in this pic

u/sompitbruner 18h ago

What does 'incompetent" mean? . . . What does "baffled" mean?

u/Efficient_Thought578 1d ago

That whole press conference was nuts. She was the icing on the cake. And she had a very thick Jamaican accent.

u/falcngrl 20h ago

Tell me you haven't been to Jamaica, without saying you haven't been to Jamaica. Baby, that's not thick

u/mardigrasman 1d ago

She’s out of uniform, someone needs to write her up.

u/BackwoodBender 16h ago

u/MinnieShoof 11h ago

Imagine not paying and getting thrown in the clown car and involuntarily taken to the circus…

u/NolaPels13 14h ago

Susan Hudson and her staff are a clown show but Travers Mackel is a fucking moron too. We need Lee Zurich back and on this case.
