I ...Ryan, I brushed myself off on Christmas night. I am SO over what happened! I get it, the cops were just doing ther job. The problem came after the fact. There needs to be better policies for the wrongfully accused. I am not just doing this for me, but for everyone else who has or will have this happen. If this had happened to a memeber of your family, you'd have pulled some strings and found out the details already. We regulars don't have the same connections and we shouldn't have to. The law already says the UHP needs to turn over the requested items but they drag their feet with me and every other person that I've talked to who has tried to get the info.Brent Boswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10654048412334898458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530846041727169707.post-90755985162122538032010-01-04T19:45:31.518-07:002010-01-04T19:45:31.518-07:00Damn man i just dont understand what you want out ...Damn man i just dont understand what you want out of this.

I understand almost as much about their job than any non police officer does. They did what they had to do and I am glad. If it had been an honest 911 call, it would be considered a Christmas miricle. The cops had no way of knowing it was a fake, but after they found out, things could have been handled better. Before the story ran, KSL gave the UHP several days to cooperate with us but the UHP would not. In fact, it was not until the UHP office staff told me to just get a lawyer rather than fill out the GRAMA forms myself, that I even considered using an outside source to get results. The lawyer told me to go to the press. I did. The press called the UHP and told them we simply want answers about what happened. Answers about things that are a matter of public record. The UHP declined. It was not until the press got involved that I heard anything from the UHP. Sad but true. I am glad to at least be getting some cooperation from the UHP now, but it sucks it took the press to get things rolling for me.Brent Boswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10654048412334898458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530846041727169707.post-11687857239743381922010-01-04T18:16:52.133-07:002010-01-04T18:16:52.133-07:00Ryan BartonRyan BartonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530846041727169707.post-61664840959192086012010-01-04T18:16:24.626-07:002010-01-04T18:16:24.626-07:00Just be glad they had the discipline and professio...Just be glad they had the discipline and professionalism to keep their fingers straight and off the trigger and be glad they responded as quickly as you say they did. If it had been real we would be kissing their ass oh wait... no one would say anything to them. Try not to be too critical unless you have been in their shoes.
