In yet another blogger vs police chief clash, Orlando Police Chief Val Demings is threatening to sue a local blogger for criticizing her on his blog.

At least she hasn’t ordered his home raided.

Nevertheless, she still doesn’t have a legal chance in hell to get Ezell Harris to shut his blog down.

On the contrary, she just placed herself in the national spotlight.

Now we all know that she received a written censure for not securing her firearm after someone stole her 9mm handgun from her agency sports utility vehicle on February 27th in an incident that was not reported until a month later. And only after someone tipped off the Orlando Sentinel. The gun, along with a pair of handcuffs and police baton, have not been recovered.

Now we all know that someone stole an Orlando police cruiser after the officer carelessly jumped out of his car, leaving the car running and doors unlocked. The car was found a few blocks away. Police suspect the culprit was a teen who had escaped from another officer.

Now we all know that Chief Demings slapped an Orlando police officer on the wrist with an eight-hour suspension after a video tape revealed he had pushed a woman down the stairs in a nightclub. Officer Fernando Trinidad claimed he had arrested Jessica Asprilla for battery on a police officer - which would have sent her to prison - but the videotape proved it was the other way around.

While all these stories are true - and were reported by the local media - Demings’ lawyer, Griffith J. Winthrop III, believes “the truth is not always a defense,” according to the Orlando Sentinel.
