Charlie clearly agreed to give a kickback in the form of a promotion to Terry. This is a simple scam, just a common dirty kickback. Meanwhile we have great fire professionals with decades on the job who get passed over for these disgusting criminals. The Feds should apply the RICO statutes to the case. This is called racketeering with a criminal conspiracy. Men go to jail for the rest of their lives when convicted under these RICO statutes. Originally the legislation was intended to combat the mob bosses who never got their hands dirty enough to be put away. Charlie, Sandy, and little Terry abused their positional powers and conspired to steal yet another promotion from our deserving professionals. City officials at the highest level engaging in racketeering for financial gain, where are the Feds?

Let it go wherever it leads. Mayor's office, L&I, Development services, anywhere. If there is no wrongdoing they have nothing to worry about.it is time for a thorough house cleaning.

Is there wrongdoing if huertas reneged on the deal? The guy's a loser but he had the props to kick waller to the curb and waller is gone.

Yes there is wrongdoing. The deal was done and Huertas's promotion hinged on accepting the dirty deal. If you commit a bank robbery and have second thoughts and give the money back before you leave the door, does that mean it never happened?I doubt it

Make the referral to the FBI. You can do it yourself. What are you waiting for?

Hey Kevin , how about a little help with the current Lieutenat test results. It turns out that the testing company Morris & McDaniel who was hired to evaluate and score the Oral interview portion of the test never received it. During the orientation Mr. David M. Morris personally told every candidate in that room that all the videos recorded would be returned back to their facility in Virgina where every candidate would be evaluated by the same board. I thought that the reason for sending out this test was to have a reputable testing company evaluate every candidate fairly and without any nepotism? Some where along the way the City of hartford decided that it would be better if the men and women of Human resources evaluated these tests . Two questions arise for me a this point.. One , what qualifications does the men and women of human resources have to evaluate and assesment center style test based on standard, procedures and protocol of the Hartford Fire Department? And Two, what did the City do with the money that was alocated to pay the Morris & McDaniel firm? Was the money pocketed or did our Administration pay this firm top dollar with taxpayers money and just blow it. With all the corruption going on with this City and department I find it very easy to believe that favoritism played a major part in the scoring of this test. Men and certainly Women who spend anytime at city hall , in the Chiefs office , and that have any type of political connections scores were adjusted so they THE SCUM AND SUCK ASS LOSERS OF THIS DEPARTMENT WHO HAVE NO INTENTION ON GOING IN FIRES, LIVE IN THE CITY AND REFUSE TO WORK FOR THIER OWN PEOPLE AND COMMUNITY can be reached. This job makes me more sick everyday. In closing , I am very certain that a majority of the canidates for the test want to know the answers to these questions and We have a pretty good following and would like to move forward with legal action suit.

The corruption at HFD just seems to get worse everyday. You would think that the Segarra people in an election year would seize on this opportunity to make a bold statement to the electorate by telling Charlie to resign.

Waller wasn't the only piece to the puzzle. Just ask Charlie. I know he likes to tell the story about how certain council members wanted 2 captains promoted to fill Wallers spot as a deputy without a test. He refused to help the one that lives out of state. Charlie said he couldn't promote them without a test but if they gave a test he would take care of it. And take care of it he did.

Yea the council wanted Charlie to make Singleton and Jones Deputy Chiefs without a test. What a joke. Singleton has not been to work in 3 years and Jones is a complete fraud.

Segarra doesn't have the balls to FIRE Charlie. Besides, if Segarra gets rid of Charlie, the s#!t is gonna hit the fan. Charlie will spell out all the dirt he knows on Pedro and Sandy. Everything. This will start an FBI investigation.
As a matter of fact, Pedro just awarded Charlie with a brand new, fully equipped, $70,000+++ SUV.
Welcome to the Segarra Administration.

The SUV you guys talk about did not cost 70G the City paid a lot less than you think. And since when was the price of a vehicle for a chief an issue in the past. The chief lives in the city would it make you happier if he took the bus to work?

Jones is a complete fraud even though he's not the one to kill someone.

No it wouldn't make me happier if he took a bus. But it would make the majority of the job happier if he jumped in front of one

Follow Kevin lead and contribute your thoughts are positive to improve the HFD. You are a disgrace.

Want to improve the HFD? Fire Patterson, fire Charlie, bring in a leader, a real leader who will clean up the mess, not someone who becomes fire chief as a condition for promoting a dirt bag like Terry Waller.

Hey Anonymous 08/21/15 at 0654, have you ever heard of due process. Your solution to fire Patterson without doing a complete investigation is preposterous. The chief has made mistakes, and certainly FF's have also made mistakes and they are given extra chances. If the Firefighters behaved on and off, duty what else would you bitch about? Do you think what you described is something new in the fire service. If the Chief were to leave, have you thought about what Chief in their right mind would want to come to Hartford. The current chief is home grown, has been in the fire service over 35 years. He helped so many prepare for promotions. There may be those that don't support him and there are those who do but do not come forward and show support. Members who don't get what they want resort to character assassination. Bring up old incidents that occurred in the fire service, when in the past the members were aware of miss-conduct and did nothing about it. Get back to fundamentals -do you job- follow orders - and stop bad mouthing the HFD. I love Hartford but history has shown that an outsider coming in to assume command of the Fire Department has failed. The other thing to think about whom from the ranks would even want to position. GOD please watch over the men and woman of the fire service till the poor attitudes and behaviors change.

What deal did HPD make to promote Ford?

Kevin did you hear that former Hartford Firefighter Douglas Caldwell recently passed-away in Hartford, and his brother firefighters responded to the call.

Charlie Huertas may have helped people prepare for promotions. He certainly did not help himself when he accepted the deal to be " force fed" Waller. Corruption certainly does not sit well on any decent persons palate.

Huertas was clearly chomping at the bit to get the chief's job. What makes you think that no one else would want it?

This would be a great thing since the city hired a firm to do all of the work and a lot of guys have been failed because the city HR department took it upon them selfs to finish the process Davis and Morris had started.

The firm hired should had finish this process not the Ladies in the HR department.
