Donald Chen; Stamford cop/Army Reservist scams PD
According to Stars & Stripes, Stamford Connecticut police officer Donald Chen told his department that he needed leave to deploy with his Army Reserve unit. While he was on leave, his Reserve unit contacted the department because they couldn’t find Chen. Police, you know, being investigators in the business of tracking people down, finally located Chen;
Police soon developed information that Chen may have been in Hawaii on vacation with his girlfriend. Then, Chen contacted investigators assigned to the case, first by e-mail then by phone, saying that he was in Taiwan with his father, who had a heart attack and was undergoing heart surgery, [police Chief Jon Fontneau] said.
Police investigators circled back to Chen’s family in Queens and found out from his mother that his father was alive, well and working in New York City.
Confronted with that and other information at odds with his Taiwan story, Chen admitted that he was not in Taiwan and his earlier statements were lies and was indeed in Hawaii, Fontneau said.
So, Chen was allowed to resign from his police officer job before he could be fired. A job he had occupied for less than two years. I don’t understand this stuff – the police department continues to pay Reservists while they’re on deployment. That’s rare and an important benefit, so why do folks thank their employers for being so generous by scamming the system? Apparently, the police department is checking on his earlier deployments, so he may have pulled this before. He turned himself in after a warrant was issued for issued for his arrest.
He got aught on one shenanigan, but they’re checking to see if he hasn’t pulled others. Hmmm, another future bride of Bubba & Thor?
Don’t forget Julio and Mr. “Tiny”… you guys and gals always forget them!
Dude’s definately a future “pound him in the ass” salad tosser (with jelly and croutons!!!).
Former cop in jail? Yeah, if that happenes that’s gonna go well for him.
As a former police officer, I have to say, this is one ignorant, sorry assed son of a bitch!! So he went to Hawaii to see his girlfriend, could that be obama, since she is in Hawaii too? I wouldn’t have given the bastard the opportunity to resign, they should have fired the lying a.h. on the spot!!
The Department nipped this guy’s wings, which is a good thing because eventually he would have been a poser SF warrior having been awarded the MOH, six Purple Hearts after escaping from ISIS and beheading the head honcho.
Stamford PD is a great job to work….what a complete and total asshole.
I like how you slipped in “Nip”. I saw what you did there. lol.
I’m not sure I like your slant on this.
He thought he had an airtight cover story, but evidently there were a few chinks in his armor.
You guys are traversing a slippery slope.
This kind of yellow journalism could ruin someone’s korea.
You guys need to zip it.
He’s already complaining that he was Pearl Harbor’ed by the police.
He kamikazied his career in law enforcement…
I think they should just let it all hang out.
He did. And then it got whacked with a sledgehammer.
You probably won’t believe this, but….I had to read your’s and the other comments a couple of times for what you thought I meant by “nip” ———- it was unintentional – really!!
I’d rather look the guy in the eyes and crush his jaw than call him some dumb frigging slur. Not my style.
Furthermore, the only ethnic jokes that aren’t funny are the Irish jokes….mainly because they’re all true.
Pogue Mahone!!
Whatcha got against the Irish, eh? Go feck yerself! I resemble that remark!

Shouldn’t that be, “Póg mo thóin”?
I’m pretty sure there are a couple of different ways to spell “kiss my ass” in Gaelic.
Google says we’re both correct, so Póg mo thóin!
WHAT-DA? What did I miss? I just got out of the shower after cleaning up a mess in the garage, something spilled and it turned into a real mess of gook!
Yeah, no racism on TAH. Ever.
Whenever someone accuses some of you of being racist just deny it and whine about being a victim of someone who has no sense of “humor”.
Just because you’re too dumb to get it doesn’t make it unfunny. It just means that you’re a self-righteous fucking idiot with delusions of genius. But we already knew that.
Bam!
Happy New Year Whitey!
Sláinte!
Lars had his sense of humor removed via his rectum sometime in his past… well before his admission to Bezerkly.
If you say so. I assumed it got washed away by the warm enemas he always got from his Mommy for being a good little boy!!!
Oh, back off, TOW! You forget that Lars was born with a few handicaps: no sense of humor and no understanding of puns.
By the way, Larsie, are you seriously trying to accuse me of racism against my wife and children? How the hell did you survive childhood?
God looks out for drunks and fools.
Childhood for Lars was probably a breeze after dodging coat hangers for 9 months.
Lars, if being stupid was an Olympic Sport you’d be a World Record Gold Medalist and if being stupid was music you’d be a walking 24/7 Symphony Concert!
Criticizing this asshole is like putting lines of coke or a crack pipe in front of an addict. He’s addicted to the hostility he creates when we answer his foolishness.
He craves the attention because there is no one in his life accept his therapist.
Oh no-we’ve been Moerked!
Merry Christmas Lars-enjoy the present we’ve given you of allowing you to indulge in smug self-righteousness.
Gå kvalt på et stort stykke af lutefisk.
Not sure even Taylor deserves that, MrBill.
Perhaps you should offer him a large serving of kæstur hákarl instead. (smile)
Or a large serving of carp prepared in the same manner.
Mmmmm….
This one is for you Lars

I have to agree on that one, folks. While the guy is obviously a raging idiot, his heritage has nothing to do with it. Not cool. OldSarge57, out.
Don’t you have somewhere else to act butthurt?
Mike Rowe eagerly awaits your latest missive.
Racism? Meh. You just don’t like the fact people can poke fun at each other and themselves and not get a case of the redass.
Ditto. I’m a straight white guy. When do I get to be offended? If you can’t laugh at harmless jokes about your own heritage then maybe you need a big hug from someone who gives a shit about your feelings.
For once (amazingly), I am with you Lars. I am a honky ass cracker, of the same color as domestic terrorists Timothy McVeigh and the white supremacist nazi South Carolina church shooting asshole, check your privilege whitey but am married to an Asian. So to all who made the crude cracks, you can all GFY, you bunch of assholes.
Oh man, those stereotypes of white people are so spot on. You know, “clinging to guns and religion and white supremacist domestic terrorists assholes”. Man, I sure am glad I have a sense of humor because that shit is funny right there.
Hey, Lars, why is a team of Japanese acrobats like the season autumn?
Because there’s always a little nip in the air! {badda-boom}
If you’re gonna get pissy about these jokes I want to hear you complain about Chris Rock, who gets pretty racist himself. Or is it ok when brown people say it?
Hey Casey, you know why all white people are domestic terrorists? Because they’re always clinging to their guns and religion. Oh man, that was so funny. HAHAHAHAHAHA! I crack myself up. Now don’t go getting your honky cracker ass all butthurt over a joke that is so awesomely funny and so accurately describes a segment of the melatoninly challenged population. You fuckers just don’t get it.
Not sure what position or rank he holds in his Reserve Unit, but they need to investigate as well. At a minimum it’s not in keeping with “Army Values” or whatever branch. If he has a security clearance, I would say he’s proven himself untrustworthy to have one.
Wow…you have reservists serving honorably, deploying and sometimes dying, then this pus filled anal wart pulls a deception like this. Way to represent your community, butt nugget.
Ahmma dirty fukk his sister.
His mom too, right?
Well, it would be unpatriotic to do otherwise.
SARD?!? deeeeeerp
Screw this guy, but remember this one:
http://nypost.com/2015/12/30/hero-cops-4-year-old-son-makes-heartbreaking-salute-at-funeral/
So he has thrown away two careers and now has a criminal record.
Oh, and his family and friends know that he is a liar and a cheat who will throw them under a bus to cover his own ass.
Hope that Hawaiian vacation was worth it, assclown.
I would not say he has completely thrown away his career, per se.
I could see him joining Turd Bolling at Ambassador Worldwide Protection Agency (national and international) in Memphis, TN.
Turd Bolling is always looking for some help due o his revolving door and sexual harassment issues.
Ambassador Worldwide Protection Agency of the World, Chen! Of the World!!
Once again, the government insists that I absolutely MUST be disarmed in the name of public safety, despite a clean record, no history of mental illness or instability, and a proven history of being fully honest in all of my dealings.
But they’ll GIVE this asshole a gun.
YEP, doesn’t it just make you feel all warm and fuzzy about Governments?
So, Chen was allowed to resign from his police officer job before he could be fired.
As opposed to what? Forcing him to keep working?
The Stamford Police Department is unionized and there is no way to have fired the guy immediately like in the non-unionized private sector.
As opposed to transferring him to a PD in Hawaii, like what the VA would have done.
Dunno what the threshold for felony theft is in CT. But the starting salary for the Stamford PD was $56k annually 2 1/2+ years ago.
http://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/Six-figure-salaries-soar-in-Stamford-4397523.php
If he was still getting paid by his department under false pretenses because he claimed to be performing military duty, a weeks’ salary would be over $1,000. I’m thinking that would meet the threshold for felony charges for either fraud or theft by deception.
Probably going to get him for fraud anyways. Stamford is a nice little quiet area, he ruined that good job just to be an idiot.
He looks like a broken-down, homeless version of Ricky Steamboat in his pic.
I still think Wang Chung is better
Being able to draw a paycheck while drilling is a great benefit that has helped me several times.
It is only now that my military pay is equal to my civilian pay, it hurts to be losing money when serving
I get mad when I read or find someone who is taking advantage of such generous benefits
We had an employee who almost cost us this benefit when he “adjusted ” the memo listing his battle assembly dates so they would fall on his work weekends. He got caught the same way – his unit trying to find him when he did not show up for drill.
