Police website draws criticism at City Council meeting
Instead of the lifeless cop-speak typical of most crime blotter reports, recent write-ups on Meadville Police Department's Crimewatch website have sounded more like checkout line tabloids or social media clickbait — and they're drawing attention, both positive and negative. The public comment portion of Meadville City Council's meeting Tuesday featured criticism of the new approach; earlier in the day, a post to social media drew more positive commentary. 'Five finger discount,' begins an entry on that was posted Monday. 'To be completely honest when I first saw that our local Walmart had a saved parking spot just for 'Law Enforcement,' I kinda laughed and thought do we really need that? I am no longer laughing. Most retail theft charges would be just a summary offense (first time offender and under $150 being taken) and those do not even make it into the Crime Watch. This individual decided to go bigger.' Underneath an italicized disclaimer explaining, 'Presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law,' the post goes on to describe how the defendant in question allegedly visited Walmart on Feb. 26 'to 'grab' a few items which he neglected to pay for.' According to the post, the stolen items included two Meta Quest virtual reality devices, two gallons of milk and two four-packs of watermelon-flavored Red Bull drinks — items worth more than $1,025, resulting in a felony charge of retail theft. After describing how city police spotted the suspect's car at a gas station and followed as it turned toward Interstate 79, the post imagines the man's reaction when he realized he was being pulled over. 'Picture this, you are in the car and just about ready to break out the Watermelon Red Bull, that you also stole, when you look into the rear-view mirror and see that 'Bubble Gum' machine coming right up your tail pipe,' the entry continues. 'It brings a smile to my face thinking about it.' The colorful account did not bring a smile to the faces of all readers. For at least one, in fact, it was the the post itself that set off metaphorical sirens. Addressing City Council near the end of the Tuesday meeting, John Hartnett, who was instrumental in the launch late last year of Shelter Area Meadville, applauded the effort at transparency that the police department's website represents. But he also questioned the approach of several recent entries. 'The statements seem kind of prejudicial, kind of stigmatizing,' he said. 'These narratives aren't becoming, I think, of something published by the city.' Particularly troubling, Hartnett continued, was the account of a man he had worked with at Shelter Area Meadville, which provides temporary housing inside Family Children & Community Association on especially cold nights. The post in question began 'saw this coming' and describes the defendant's 'escalating behaviors' over the course of several months, resulting in multiple formal warnings against trespassing at numerous city locations. He was arrested Feb. 25 after allegedly trespassing at Stone United Methodist Church, engaging in disorderly conduct, ignoring police commands and resisting arrest, according to city police. Mayor Jaime Kinder thanked Hartnett for bringing the issue to council's attention. After the meeting, she said she was unaware of the posts Hartnett referenced before he brought them to her attention just before the meeting. Launched in October 2023 through the CRIMEWATCH Technologies Inc. platform, Meadville Police Department's website is updated most weekdays with blotter entries documenting recent departmental activities. The site also allows residents to provide tips or to register security camera locations to aid the department in the event such cameras could provide useful evidence. Until recently, the daily updates provided generally dry accounts of police activity. A Nov. 26 account of a man charged with one misdemeanor and one summary count was typical: 'The Meadville City Police Department has filed open lewdness and disorderly conduct charges,' the post reads, 'following an incident in front of 792 North Main Street in which (the defendant is) accused of urinating on the front of the building in view of the public.' A post updated on Monday reveals a different approach to a similar incident in which a woman faces misdemeanor charges of indecent exposure and open lewdness and a summary charge of disorderly conduct. 'No happy meal for you,' the post begins. 'With the recent nice weather we have had it seems to draw people out of the woodwork.' The post goes to describe how on Feb. 24 a customer at Wendy's allegedly opened her shirt to expose her sports bra to staff members behind the counter. 'As she left the restaurant,' the post continues, 'she pulled her shirt off and pulled down her pants to expose her buttocks and genitals to paying customers who probably did not have that on their 'things to see list' for the day.' Last month, the job of writing the arrest reports was taken over by the city's new crisis intervention officer, Brian Swavey. In an interview at the time, Swavey said he had begun posting blotter entries after a pause of about six weeks in the updates following the retirement of another staff member. 'I'm putting a little spin on how they're put in there,' Swavey said. 'I'm not trying to put it in there as a police officer, I'm putting it in with a little more readability for the common person.' Swavey's strategy has its fans. Around midday Tuesday, Meadville business owner Rich Thomas copied and pasted the descriptions of both the Walmart shoplifting and the Wendy's indecent exposure cases to his Facebook page. 'Whoever the new police blotter author is, they sure have a sense of funny,' Thomas wrote, adding a 'rolling on the floor laughing' emoji. Swavey's style makes the entries both interesting and entertaining, Thomas said in a phone interview. Having read the entries faithfully for years, Thomas said it was easy to notice the recent change in authorship. 'Something like that puts a little twist on the story,' he said. After not commenting on the new entries for several weeks, Thomas said he liked the Walmart shoplifting entry so much that he felt compelled to express his appreciation. Within a few hours, 30 people had responded with positive reactions to the post. 'I just read this first thing this morning and it made my day!' one person commented on Thomas' post. At the same time, however, Thomas feared that drawing attention to the entries would lead to disappointing changes. The possibility occurred to at least one person who responded to his post. 'I love reading this too with new author,' she wrote. 'I hope they don't get replaced!'
