  1. Congratulations, however the leadership of the FBI has tarnished their reputation. Good for you, shame on them.

  2. Maybe Beller and the Kenosha police can now deal with the fact that both him and the department have concealed the fact that he was present at and witnessed the shooting of Michael Bell.

    That is one of many uncomfortable things the department has concealed.

      1. You are correct. However, why would an officer who witnessed the demise of a loser criminal deny being a witness of the act? He, and others, committed perjury to conceal the fact that he witnessed the shooting. Why would he do that if it was a good shoot? Could it be that him and the department did not want him to say what he actually saw?

    1. Oh that’s right..it’s not maniacs who have no sense of what’s real and carry around multiple assault rifles because they think the country is up in flames 24/7 and cant go to Subway to get a sandwich because they are scared little bitches.

      1. No. Like I said, it’s almost ALWAYS the feds behind it all. Just like the last 2 assassination attempts on Trump. Our government wants us compliant, or dead.

        P.s.
        The country IS up in flames….

  3. Congrats bring that excellent training to are community . We need it ,
    use that leadership to guide and help those in are justice system that abuse their power.

  4. Bootlickers.

    The FBI is corrupt and is yet another link in the chain that will one day be wrapped around the Constitution.

    He has learned more ways to step on your civil rights.

  5. My brother in law went through the FBI course many years ago. If this officer is anything like my b.i.l. then we are, and will continue to be, well served by him. Congrats!

  6. Hopefully the course enables him to address corruption within the force. While I support KPD, they’ve got some officers on payroll that would prefer to cover up crimes instead of investigating them.

            1. As I have said before, this is getting so old anonymous. Please expand your education to more intelligent subjects. You seem to be stuck in one place with your thoughts.

              1. I hear you and actually agree. However, Straight White Make needs to be forcibly outed due to the self-loathing hatred he expresses towards the LGBTQ community. Numerous psychological studies show that a very large percentage of people who exhibit his type of behavior are actually homosexual themselves.

    1. How do you think he got to the position he is in??? He’s the same as the other captains and admin, they protect each other….. The administration will never turn on each other.

  7. How many trips to Quantico and expensive meals are we the taxpayers on the hook for here? Ongoing training is great, but everything needs to have an ROI.

    Speaking of which a great ROI would be to have the squad that sits in the median on hwy 50 by Menards actually pull someone over. Starting with every FIB in an Altima or Infiniti. So tired of driving 60 on there and still having half the cars on my ass.

    1. OMG… So nobody is supposed to do any kind of training or advancement or obtain more knowledge? Kudos to him! I’d like to see if any of you could complete the courses he just did and pass! Or Even have the drive and determination to complete it. And all you people are flipping it around to something negative? WOW

      1. There’s a big difference between some training and this. Let’s see the bill.

        Yes, I will make it negative. Just more egos in that effing corrupt group.

          1. Of course not. But spend enough Pennies and eventually it’s dollars. Waste is waste. Multiply it out and that’s how you end up with the overall tax situation we have. Do you live in Kenosha? Do you think your property taxes are fair based on the services and infrastructure you’re provided?

  8. I have news for you.Any kind of public service that we pay for, Police, corrections , all those entities have regular trainings iincluded as it should be So they can properly serve and protect you.

    1. Wow! That’s a profound bit of insight! Never did I consider that, thank you so much.

      You’re missing the point. There’s necessary training and then there’s some that is nothing more than a d*** measuring contest. Show us, the taxpayers, who paid for this and anything tangible that will come from it.

      1. Normally the FBI covers the cost of the academy, the department you work for pays your wage while your in training because the training is to benefit the department you work for and community you server.
        However- don’t be surprised when he leaves to be a chief/administrator at another department.

  9. “Being able to pick up the phone and get instant assistance from 254 other professionals is priceless.”

    So that’s what they are doing when they hide in the back of parking lots! Or when they are texting in traffic!

  10. 23 years on the department so might be time for a double dip……U.S. Marshall appointment might be something to consider.

  11. That’s not something I’d be bragging about since the FBI is far more dangerous than the Taliban. Did you get a sticker for your efforts?

  12. Kevin’s feel good story on a local law enforcement officer doing good for himself and the department he works for went right into the gutter with all the negative comments here. What a shame.

    Except for the Michael Bell angle.
    Now that part is interesting.

    Here’s to hoping Xavier Solis can help unravel the mistakes in that handling of that case once and for all.
    That is a stain on this community that needs to be resolved.

      1. It’s the FBI, the agency trying to put one party’s candidate in prison. F them and anything they are involved with is tainted.

  13. First of all, you don’t pay to go to the FBI academy. They pick up the costs. There is a very high standard to attend, including physical fitness, investigations, public relations and more. Not everyone gets in. And yes, once complete it is a pretty good perk on your resume. Congrats to Captain Beller. The Watcher sees !

    1. I agree with the watcher.Congrats, and thank you watcher for finally shutting these people up about their taxes going up! Just goes to show you that people run off at the mouth when they don’t have the fscts. Can you say ….drama!

    2. Who picks up the cost? The FBLie? Where do they get that money from, smart guy?….🤦‍♂️
      One of the most corrupt government agencies to exist.
