Detroit chief suspended over alleged affair with officer

DETROIT — Detroit's police chief has been suspended following allegations he had a relationship with a subordinate.

Chief Ralph Godbee and the woman, an internal affairs officer, had been in a relationship that she eventually tried to end, David Robinson, the woman's attorney, told the Detroit Free Press.


"After learning of the allegations regarding Chief Ralph Godbee, I have placed him on a 30-day suspension pending a full and thorough investigation of this matter," Bing said in a statement Tuesday that did not specify the allegations.....

Affair or relationship?


And who cares? The guy likes pussy - that's a plus in my book.

I can see why he was with her...She seems very comfortable with tube-shaped items in her mouth...

My question is if she's IA and they plan on a complete and through investigation.


Who heads it up IA?

AMEN!!!


Oh, wait, she was the 'victim' in all of this... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Before it's all over, it will be that he forced the relationship on her, or that he made it a 'requirement' of her job, etc... Like it was pointed out, she did this to the prior chief. Sounds to me like SHE has the agenda here...


And I do agree that she needs a mental eval for the Twit pic...

So wait, apparently she was "trying to end the relationship", but then gets suicidal and sticks a gun in her mouth when she finds out he's at a conference with another woman?! I'm sorry, but this is typical female emotional bullshit...."I don't want to be with him, but I can't stand seeing him with someone else!"

I like to think a person's thoughts and actions are more important than their appetites.


The utter selfishness, immaturity, and lack of self control they both have displayed (assuming what was reported is true) is a huge minus in my book, though I realize their behavior is not particularly unique or surprising. :rolleyes: :hopeless:

My bad. I didn't realize you were the only person who could change who they fell in love with.


Sounds more like a relationship that "she" decided to be spiteful over for one reason or another.

Let me first say that I can see how it would be natural to read my posts and think I was completely arrogant and self-righteous, not to mention a "prude." Trust me when I say I am intimately familiar with my own failings and I don't pretend to be someone with a good track record in this area.


That said, apparently I completely misunderstood your original post. :confused: You say, "The guy likes pussy," and that it's a good thing. I can't understand how that has anything to do with love.


As far as I know (and I'm sure many think I'm crazy for taking marriage so seriously) when you make a marriage promise to be faithful to your spouse, from that point forward you stop seeking romantic or sexual relations with anyone else whether or not the "love" dries up in your marriage. If you don't want to live with this restriction in order to keep that solemn promise, then don't get married in the first place. If you are married and feel you no longer want to keep that promise, then you can get a divorce. If getting a divorce is too hard, then for your family's sake show a little (or a lot of) self control and stop indulging your destructive desires. Get help if you need it.


You may call breaking a marriage promise by indulging in romantic and sexual relations with another person and inflicting great pain to your spouse "falling in love." I call it utter selfishness.


Now, as I implied, I have absolutely no expectation that anyone else share my views. There is a surprising amount of diversity on this board. For example, for every person that thinks a particular emergency lighting/graphics/vehicle equipment setup looks "amazingly good" you'll find just as many who "absolutely hate" it. That certainly doesn't stop them from sharing their opinion and publicly disagreeing with others.


I simply wanted to share my opinion that neither party involved in this story is innocent. And I have to admit, after your initial "pussy" comment I couldn't resist responding.


This is the last I will say on this topic.
