Message-in- Fromj?t Sent: Tuesday, February 09, 2016 11:38 AM To: Richard Gray Subject: FYI from City of John Day, 01'. JOHN DAY POLICE DEPARTMENT Chief Richard Gray 24 Hour Dispatch 450 E. Main Phone (541) 575-9030 February 5, 2016 - To: Director Eriks Gabliks Ethics Review Board 1 am writing this letter in regards to Sheriff Glenn E. Palmer. This letter will serve as my formal complaint against Glenn Palmer including incidents that go back several years. This most recent incident causing great concernis the involvement with the Militia?s occupation of the Malhenr Wildlife Refuge and Glenn Palmer?s close involvement with them. His actions as well as social media posts Show Glenn Palmer?s involvement and support for the Militia. These copied social media post are included for your review. On Jan. 12*, .2016, Glenn Palmer was reportedly having a lunch meeting with locals and members of the Militia group at the Outpost Restaurant in John Day. After lunch Glenn Palmer and his friends, along. with Militia members were also observed .going into the Oregon Telephone Co. where they are believed to have continued the meeting. The 911 CAD radio log reads at- 12:06 hours 400, Glenn Palmer geing out for a meeting at the Outpost Restaurant. At 15:33 hours, 400 cleared and goes 12-1. As Glenn Palmer told the local news, ?He had no idea he was meeting with the Militia.? And as the 911 radio log shows he was there on duty in this meeting/lunch for about 3 hours. See enclosed CAD logs. This same day i was informed, Brandon Cuttiss, who is a proclaimed member of the, Idaho 3%ers, was one of the persons in this meeting. Other people mentioned in this meeting were, Tad Houpt, Dave Traylor, Jim Sproul, and other unnamed locals. I was in my patrol vehicle in the area, as the meeting ended. 1 observed Glenn Palmer walking to his patrol vehicle from across the rear parking lot. On Friday Jan. 19", at about 12:07 hours, i was advised by a member of the community that there were three peOple who got out of a four door pickup that was parked in the parking lot of the Sheriff?s Of?ce, two males and a blond female, believed to be Shawna Cox. The vehicle was a Dodge pov?ver wagon and it displayed an Idaho 3% sticker on the rear window. The pickup had Idaho plate #018008. At about 12:39 hours 400, Glenn Palmer went 12?1 from his of?ce and at - 12:44 hours he went code 7 for lunch at the Outpost Restaurant. At about 13: 15 hours I was advised the same pickup was parked across the street in front of the Outpost Restaurant. The radio call log never shows him going 12-1, clearing from the restaurant or going off duty. On Monday Jan. 25?? at about 9:34 hours, I was invited to a con?dential closed meeting with the DA, OSP, USPS, GCSO and 911 Dispatch. in this meeting, we discussed the Militia coming to John Day for a community meeting. The meeting was being planned for Tuesday at 6pm at the Senior Center in John Day. I was told the meeting was being set up by, Tad Houpt, a local business owner. Tad is a business partner of Sam Palmer, Glenn Palmer?s brother and a known friend of Glenn. i in the meeting we all went around the table and discussed our concerns of the Militia being invited to Grant County. Glenn Palm-er denied any involvement and he said he doesnot understand how the Militia works. Later in the meeting he stated as a follow-up to a question re? guarding the Committee of Safety that the members could be pro-selected. Glenn Palmer also stated he was not going to be attending the meeting on: the 26m. The local radio station had also announced several times during the day that Glenn Palmer would not be attending this meeting. On Jan. when was asked to call Glenn Palmer to advise him of the roadblock I called his home number first. i was advised by his wife that he was not home and that he could be reached on his cell phone. When I called his cell phone i advise him of the readblock on US 395 south. This was after the shooting of Lavoy Finicum. A community member told me later this same night Glenn was at the meeting in full uniform and?was planning on speaking at the meeting. I have a great public safety concern when the Grant County Sheriff is allowed to openly meet with and be part of this group of lawbreakers. The following events show that Glenn Palmer deleted a public document from the Departments Records Management System, Justice. In 20i2, I ran for Of?ce of Sheriff and during this election campaign, Glenn Palmer lied on several occasions accusing me of doing many dishonest things. Please refer to case number 82012?0349 that Glenn Palmer submitted to OSP and the Mayor of the City of John Day, Ron Lumdbom. This was a formal complaint against me. In substance, the report claims, I was in his office looking for reports that he had stashed in his of?ce closet. He Was toldvto take his complaint to the local OSP office. As a result it was forwarded to Captain Calvin Curths, director of the OSP Criminal Investigation Division. Captain Curths reviewed the complaint with the Department of Justice and both agencies Concluded that no criminal inVestigation would be conducted, as there was no evidence that i did as he claimed. OSP and had no further comment on this matter. As you will find in the letters and notes enclosed, this response was sent to on Oct. 22, 2012. I also have enclosed a response letter from the then Police Chief, Rich Tirico. We share a records management system with the Sheriff?s Office, it is called, JustiCe. When 1 later looked for report number 82012?0649, I found the written report had been deleted. The then Police Chief spoke to Val Luttrell, Dispatch Manager and she called to have an audit trail performed. Ron Taylor, the administrator of the system did an audit. Val was given a copy of the audit trail, also submitted to you, revealed the report was deleted on 11?01-2012 at 14:13:11 hours by User ID 18276, this is Glenn Palmer?s number and his assigned ID in Justice, and the, activity window reads, Delete. in searching the system for this report, I find it still remains deleted. I Directly following this, Glenn Palmer gave a letter to the chief banning me from the jail and Sheriff?s Office. This disrupted my duties, and the pubic that I arrested thought it was funny I was kicked out of the jail and questioned my authority in making the arrest. Glenn Palmer placed one at risk while dealing withthe public because of his lies to my supervisors and the public abdut me. As you will find another letter addressed to me from Sheriff Richard Mack dated Oct. 17*, 2012 claiming that during an elections debate, I called the CSPOA and Oath Keepers racist. This did not happen, but Glenn Palmer reached out to Sheriff Mack to have this letter sent to me. As you will ?nd Glenn Painter?sname is listed on the footer of the CSPOA letterhead dated Oct. 17, 2012. Included for you to review is a Facebook response from Glenn Palmer. This post is in response to Les Zaitz article in the Oregonian news. Glenn said Les lied about reporting him as being or still being a CSPOA Board Member. Glenn claims on social media that he was not on the Board of Directors and never been to a board meeting. On the footer of the CSPOA letter dated Oct. 17, 2012. Glenn Palmer?s name is listed under the title of: CSPOA Connci] of Sheriffs and Peace Officers. in the material 1 have sent you, Please review the Letters to the editor sections, Facebook post, letters and other atticles and you will see my concerns for our public?s and officer?s safety. 1 would like to ask the Review Board consider this information as a ?Tampering with public records? case as well as an ethics issue with an elected of?cial. Thank you for your support in this matter. fir/4i Chief Richard Gray Supporting documentation for tampering with public records. 15 pages totai Grant County Sheriff's Of?ce Glenn E.

Continuation Report Summary - Received information from Deputy Abbie Mobley of an incident(s) involving Deputy Scott Moore and Sgt. Richard Gray of the John Day Police Department. Narrative . On October 10, 2012, at 11:10 am, Deputy Abbie Mobley came into the Sheriff's Office in an off duty capacity with her young child,- Mobiey advised me that the moral in the office has taken a dive and issues between her husband Zach Mobley and Scott Moore are not geod. Deputy Abbie Mobiey? is married to Deputy Zach Mobley', who is one of my four patrol staff. I Deputy Zach Mobley had been hired on a patrol contract for the Town of Prairie City, Oregon to patrol a Forty hour work week. A posistion came up through a grant to give this agency "a Ten hour position to work through the Grant County District Attorney?s Victim's Assistance Domestic Violence and Sexual Assaultprogram. Due to Deputy Mobley being geographically limited on his patrols, offered the'position to Deputy Mobley to work the grant. 1 further assigned the remainder of my patrol staff as well as myself to pickup the remaining ten hours of patrol for the Prairie City contract. According to Deputy Zach Mobley and Deputy Abbie Mobley, Deputy Moore became. irrate and angry over Deputy Zach Mobley getting the investigator position. Beings thatDeputy Zach Mobley and Deputy Abbie Mobie)i are married and live tOgether, i presume that they share information and talk amongst themselves on what they hear here at work. One other issue that h-avedealt with is that Deputy Abbie Mobley has told. me that Deputy Moore sent Zach Mobley a text on his phone. The conversation? was that Deputy Moore dared me to confront him regarding the civil papers needing served. Due to Undersheriff M'CKinley taking time off and De?puty'James Burgett taking time off, Deputy Moore was advised via a written memo to. serve some civil papers or make service attempts. Wrote the memo on the Sonda'y I worked the shift in Prairie City and there were no. attempts at- service for quite some time. When I arrived back in on the next Menday, again, there were no attempts to serve the paper's. Checking the activity log, Deputy Moore had a suSpicious Vehicle in Dayville and a Restraining order issue elsewhere in the County. One of those papers had a Dayville address and an attempt should have been made. The following Week Deputy-'Burgett had court as did Undersheriff McKinley. Furte'rhmore, Deputy Burgett put on firearms training that pretty much consumed his work week that left the rest of the duties and responsibilities to Deputy Scott Moore and I. Undersheriff McKinley took time off for family matters. PALMER Page2 incident.- 820129349 Incident Report: 820120349 CurrentAs 01?: Saturday. October 20. 2012 During some of the conversation with Deputy Mobley and Undersheriff Todd McKinley. I made a memo regarding the patrols and Ten hours a week needed to complete the contract. During the first week, I checked the patrol log and discovered that no one had worked the Prairie City contract. I ended up working an eight hour shift on a Sunday to complete the contract requirement. I then put out a second memo asking the patrol staff to do their patrols in Prairie City. During my conversation with Deputy Abbie Mobley, she advised me that Deputy Moore had been in the back while on duty and in uniform telling or asking jail staff to vote for Sgt. Richard Gray in the upcoming Sheriff?s election. i am wanting to state that-this might have been back during the primary election but I am not sure. Moble?y told me that Deputy Charles Baker and Deputy Mike Alley have heard this as well. On October 116, 2012, I spoke to Sally DeFord who told me that she had multiple other staff members mention to herthat Deputy Scott Moore iscampaigning for Sgt. Richard Gray while on duty and within theSheriff's Office. Deputy Abbie Mobley advised me further that Deputy Moore has been rude over the police radio. Since trying to track time for the Prairie. City patrol contract,_l set up a zone So that the patroling deputy could call into dsipatoh and say Zone 1 and we would know that patrols are being done in Prairie City. One night when Deputy Zach 'Mobley called in a Zone 1 patrol, Deputy Moore came over the radio and made a comment about used an alpha character. This Was done while Angie Hannibal was on dispatch. Despite staff meetings, 1 have gave directives'tor my patrol staff to stay out of dispatch and get out on patrol in the County. [have received complaints from Deputy Mobtey that Deputy Moore is constantly spending time on his shift in the dispatch center. receive calls regularly that my patrol cars are often seen at the John Day Police Department but they can?t get a patrol to their areas in the outlying areas of our County. was also advised that Sgt. G?ray spends a lot of his time "while on duty and in Uniform in the Grant County Sheriff's Office. Deputy Mobley advised me that the jail staff can see Sgt. Gray and Deputy Scott Moore via a video camera in the main office area of the Sheriff's Office. At no time has any of my staff told me that Sgt. Gray has been or has come to the office in plain clothes or in an off duty status. In fact, I questioned my clerical staff, rny Undersheriff and my part-time clerical . who have all told me that there has been no records requests made from Sgt. Gray. Most if not all records requests are received in writing and the request is maintained in the file that the records request come from for tracking purposes. There is a recording of the front office but Without a specific date and time to look, it would be very time consuming for a staff member to watch video. I was informed by Deputy Zach and Abbie Mobley that if i get re?elected, that Deputy Moore told "him that Deputy Moore plans on quiting the Sheriff?s Office.? - papery: PALMER Page 3 incident: 320120349 [Incident Report: 520120349 I CurrentAs Of Saturday.
