Assistant Chief of Professional Development Bureau for the MPD Swine Joshua A. Ederheimer
We featured Swine Ederheimer in the past, but with little fanfare, he was demoted by the very same Swine who promoted him to Captain and released from his position (described below) as Assistant Chief of Professional Development.
He’s currently the Captain of the Second Police District’s operational support teams, which include the Narcotics, Tactical, Auto Theft, Missing Person, and Hit and Run investigative units. Additionally, he is responsible for the District’s cellblock operations and various administrative functions, as well as uniformed patrol services in the northern part of the Second District.
Under Swine Chief lanier’s reorganization plan, Swine Ederheimer was promoted from being in charge of the MPD Police Academy to overseeing both the training of all Swine in the MPD as well as collaborating in the development and guidance of the agency’s operational, policy, and making financial decisions within its more than $500 million dollar budget! In this capacity, he was responsible for a portfolio which incorporates a variety of support and operational functions including the agency’s recruiting, hiring, training, human resources, discipline, medical services, and language access programs for the Department’s 5,000 sworn and civilian employees. He had direct responsibility for 445 employees and his portfolio’s $53 million dollar budget.
In short, Swine Ederheimer was a police recruiter on steroids. Not only does he recruit piglets, but he makes the decisions about training, standard operating procedures for the department and budgets. He’s the pulling the strings of the proverbial Swine Oz.
He also was pushing for more s0-called ‘community policing’. What this translates to is more fat pigs on segways roaming our neighborhood streets with bike cops peddling alongside them. Pigs stationed in major commercial areas and outside schools and an increased harassment of youth.
Ederheimer became a Swine in 1985. Over the last 2 decades, he rose through the MPD ranks working everything from patrol to investigations to administration. Prior to his promotion to Assistant Swine Chief, Ederheimer had responsibility for the Department’s research, planning, criminal intelligence, testing, legislative, and forensic laboratory functions.
He took a few years off to be the Director of the Police Executive Research Forum Center on Force and Accountability. In theory, he was supposed to be researching the Police use of force on the community. If so, why did the pigs who murdered Deonte Rawlings get off? Why do we witness snatch squads in our neighborhoods beat kids on their front porches? Why do pigs beat people with batons and bikes at demonstrations? Why do pigs shoot? Why are there submachine guns in police vehicles?
Swine Ederheimer, we’d love to hear the answers to these questions. But you know what, we don’t think you can honestly answer them because so long as there are police, there will be police brutality because you train them to treat our communities with contempt — and that’s being mild.He serves on the boards of a number of Swine related organizations including the DC Police Standards and Training, DC Police Foundation, National Law Enforcement Memorials Fund, and the International Law Enforcement Forum.
He’s worked as an adjunct professor at American University – Department of Law, Justice and Society.
He has a Bachelors from AU and a Masters in Management and Leadership from Johns Hopkins.
Swine Ederheimer has a colorful past too.
Swine Ederheimer isn’t your run of the mill swine. He’s also the only Jewish Ordained Christian Missionary in the Prebyterian Church. He’s also active in the PTA.
A number of years ago, he traveled to Pine Ridge to tutor Lakota Youth.
Someone should tell this Swine the violence at Pine Ridge is at the hands of the Feds, BIA, US Marshals and the police. Something he knows a little about…And to add insult to injury, this pig engages in racist discrimination right here in the District. In a lawsuit from roughly a decade ago, Swine Ederheimer attempted to force an African American Rastafarian Swine to cut off his dreadlocks. When he refused, Swine Ederheimer punished him by making his wear a hat, work the back door of the station and continued to assert that his hair was “inappropriate.”
When not recruiting more piglets or Fu*king with the people of DC, Swine Ederheimer can be found chillin with his wife Donna and his 2 kids at
