cop’s secret identity revealed
tommyFormer St. Pete Police Officer Ken Kokotek retired, and unveiled his secret identity. Picasso is the screen name Ken used on the Law Enforcement Officer Affairs (LEO Affairs) website while ripping the higher-ups on the force as well as the City of St. Pete administration and others.
Apparently, he’s pretty good with photoshop, too:
In one, Mayor Rick Baker is wearing a pink dress with a matching pink hat.
In another, police Chief Chuck Harmon’s head has been put on an obscenely overweight body, and the chief is looking intently at a two-layer cheeseburger.
Sounds attractive. Look at the TBO article to see the altered images for yourself.
Those higher-ups were irritated. So much so, there was an investigation into Picasso’s identity, and threats of firing - even after he retired!:
Had he not retired, a St. Petersburg police officer would have been fired for posting degrading computer-altered pictures of police administrators and others on a Web site…
Anyway - the artwork is average at best, but the satire is pretty good. For more, check out Picasso’s home on the web, SPPD - An Insider’s View.

Ballsy! It’s one thing to rip your bosses after you retire, it’s another entirely to do it while heading to the exit and they can still mess with your pension. Here’s hoping great reward comes from Picasso’s great risk.

Too funny. I live in the Tampa Bay Area and hear all kinds of rumors about the St. Pete PD and their bosses.
Thanks for the post.
