Excerpt #40

In the same phone conversation with Breitenstein from Internal Affairs, he told Susan that Lieutenant Black, (first mention of his name) had been under investigation for a long time and steps were being taken for his hearing soon. However, he said, that I had hindered rather than helped the investigation. This was not true, Carl Black was a Lieutenant in Communications in 1981 along with Breitenstein and Connie Van Putten. They all worked under Black and would have done anything for their former boss. They were all buddies. So bringing this case to Breitenstein would have prevented a proper investigation. They were also aware of an investigation of Black while there for a sexual harassment of one of the dispatchers. I spoke to the dispatcher years ago and she was deathly afraid of Black. Connie Van Putten would make Lieutenant and would become one of my Lieutenants at Eastern Division. Oh, what a tangled web we weave. #TangledWeb
