A former Florida police captain with a long history of civilian complaints, including false arrests and harassment, has joined the state’s state guard under governor Ron DeSantis.
Javier Ortiz, 44, joined the Florida state guard in February, the Miami Herald first reported. Ortiz’s enrollment comes months after being reinstated by the Miami police department, after he was initially dismissed for slew of conduct complaints.
As a member of the Florida state guard, Ortiz could be sent to assist during natural disasters or with other statewide emergencies, the Herald reported.
“I can’t wrap my mind around how concerning this is,” Rodney Jacobs, the director of Miami’s civilian police review panel, said to the Herald about Ortiz joining the state guard.
Jacobs added: “Are they being vetted?”
“let’s use a really flattering photo of him, though.”

It’s important to remember, “Abuse and bias” is a feature of conservatives, not a bug.
“We only hire criminals” -official motto of the florida state guard
They’re being vetted for those exact traits. That’s the point of brownshirts.
During a two-year inquiry into Ortiz’s conduct, witnesses alleged that Ortiz engaged in “pattern of abuse and bias against minorities, particularly African-Americans”, and previously cyber-stalked and doxxed people who complained against him or other officers, the Herald reported.
Sounds like a perfect fit for ole’ Ronnie-boy.
Ortiz’s hiring raises additional concerns as the Florida state guard is reportedly being trained as an armed, combat-ready militia under DeSantis’s command versus a disaster relief agency, according to military veteran recruits who have quit the state guard training program.
Fascist fuck is looking forward to brutalizing anyone he doesn’t like.
And so the recruitment for his brownshirts begins.
I want each little dictator to have their stooges fight the other ones. Like Desantis brown shirts against MAGA torch bearers, and they are having the gang battle in the airport terminal blocking Ted Cruz from escaping to a vacation! Boebert is sucking cock in the bathroom while MTG is driving a MAGA flag delivery truck into a crowd… and as the camera pulls back that other bitch spikes a newborn puppy into the pavement. Mass hysteria.
