She was desperate and needed to prove her case. She used a molar mic during my dental exam she hired my dentist to do so. Using persuasion that I am not a good person she manipulated the dentist into placing it without evidence and standing on an accusation that was false in court she was proven wrong. I was found not guilty in the case destroyed yet they still needed to hang on by placing a molar Mike in my mouth a GPS tracking device in my car and gaining access to my text messages by being in my car using Bluetooth

We are extremely grateful to Officer Ha for the way he handled the robbery case that day. He was very patient while taking our statement and took the time to answer all of our questions in detail. To our surprise, just as we walked home, Officer Ha called to tell us that he had found our stolen scooter and asked us to come and identify it! We were truly amazed and impressed. This experience completely changed our perception of how cases are handled we honestly didn't think the scooter would be recovered and reported the incident with only a "let's see" mindset. During the process, I called several times to ask for updates, and Officer Ha always responded patiently. On one occasion when my call didn't go through, he even called me back. This made me feel that he took my case very seriously. We are deeply thankful to have such a responsible and dedicated police officer in our community!

Already two weeks since the accident and still haven't received the police report. This has prevented me from seeing a pain specialist for an MRI, since the lawyer wants to make sure I wasn't at fault and don't get stuck with a huge bill. San Marino is a sleepy, rich town, so I can't imagine them being swamped with so much "work". Do better SMPD!

Perhaps I'm biased, but having gotten a tour inside, and seeing how it works from another…read moreperspective, but I have some respect for these guys. This is a smaller department than I've seen others in the LA / SoCal area, and the inside is really sort of ... not fancy at all like you'd think. These guys don't have all your money and don't sit there and do nothing. They respond to calls and keep the community generally safe to their best abilities. They have day shifts and night shifts. YES graveyard shifts! Somebody has to be awake in the middle of the night when you're knocked out from the day's activities. I do think its a thankless job. As a police officer you have to lay down the law. You have to keep people in line, and that often times rub people the wrong way because people think they're joy-kill. But if they don't do it, who will? Yes sometimes you're just having a fantastic party but its 3am, your neighbors do also have a right to have some peace of mind and sleep. Either way, I'm a big fan. Thanks San Marino PD! :)

While it's nice to know that the police have a substation in cute friendly Montrose (aka…read morePleasantville) and are here to protect and serve us, honestly, it doesn't seem that this substation is open very much. I have seen the door open during fairs, festivals and markets but have never had occasion to stop in. That's fine with me; it's a sign of low crime and a great neighborhood. Here's a shout-out to all the good cops out there. Thank you!

In my 25 years of residency in SP , I can say that the police station used to be run efficiently…read moreby friendly , polite people. It really complemented the feel of Mayberry at one point . The police officers were so respectful, kind and actually cared about their residents. I so miss officer Wise. He tired long ago. Even the parking enforcement people were nice. Today , most of the officers and parking cadets are so arrogant and treat residents like criminals. The parking enforcement cadets are eager to cite you over anything. if you stop for a second to let someone out of your car on the red curb, because there was no other option. Even when your car is on. I never saw the cadet and never knew I had " broken " the law. I was shocked to receive the ticket by mail. The cadet didn't speak to me , I never even saw him; going by the pics , I can see that he followed me. Never put the light on me or honk his horn. I. guess the parking enforcement cadets NOW can cite you for a moving violation. I requested to speak with the watch commander on duty. I stood for 45 minutes waiting for the officer. I am a senior , disabled person. The officer finally showed up and had a very defensive attitude. He showed no courtesy at all. I unfortunately did not write his name down. He didn't have any interest in listening anything I had to say . It makes me think the cadets have a quota of citations to meet daily. While I was waiting at the police station for the watch commander, a woman came in with a similar complain: she got a parking ticket on the mail, but the cadet didn't leave a copy on the windshield. So drivers are now being spied on by the parking cadets from far away , no hard copy on your windshield because you are way to far from them . All they have to do is write your plate number and you'll get a surprise notice on the mail. This is corruption at its highest. It reminds me of the motorcycle police officer , also in South Pasadena, who hides behind bushes or on private driveways by the high school and on Orange Grove, ready to stop and cite people. Before , this motorcycle officer was the only sneaky character. Now the parking cadets are here to get you too and they are supported by the police. So shameful!!

It turns out I am not the only woman he has harassed too as some other people have also reached out to me about their experiences. I have reported him numerous times to this department to no avail, their only excuse being "we can't take any action as he has not physically harmed you", even told me to just ignore him?? Their attitudes aren't any better, as most of the time they came off as annoyed. Honestly I'm just glad to see I'm not the only one who finds this department pathetic.

I will forever feel gratitude to that policeman and his partner (it may have been his supervisor) who zoomed over to help us when I called about our life or death situation. The whole thing gives me the chills. But the bottom line is that SMPD saved a life. I appreciate the fact that SMPD is pretty open with interacting with the community, which goes a long way to develop trust. They have "open house" events like at Christmas and other occasions where you can chitchat with them. It goes a long way to ease any tensions and show that they are decent human beings. SMPD seems to attract high quality people to the force and whoever is running the show does a great job. SMPD is a top notch police department.
