Furthermore, Greg shares that the city of Fridley are sticklers and want their tickets. I've called Greg FOUR times, leaving voicemails each time. No response. I was inquiring clarity on his language if it's convictions, money, or what exactly the city of Fridley wants. If it's money, I'd pay double the ticket to keep it off my record. Greg said Fridley wants their whatever, convictions, money, etc. I asked "do they have to get what they want?" Greg laughed and said they are his boss. Bottom line, this was a waste of my time. To have the perception that talking with a prosecutor is worth time when he shares Fridley always gets their tickets collected on and convictions, is misleading and frustrating. I believe better transparency would serve the people of Anoka county, our neighbors, better. The fact that Greg cannot even return my calls is troubling. The fact that Steiger cannot issue a pass on a 15 over violation, on BUSY east river rd, keeping up with traffic, is troubling. What is going on with Fridley Police? I could have been a jerk, uncooperative to Steiger, made his job very difficult. I do the opposite and am shown no leniency? What is going on here?
Regardless, I am sorry to trouble you with this silly matter. Things could have been difference if Steiger could have shown some understanding based on my record. If Greg could show some understanding and give me some explanation based on my flawless record in the past FOUR years, 2010. Instead I trouble you. Thank you for your time. I would appreciate Greg being spoken to about his handling of this matter, his nonchalant attitude and saying how he basically must do what he says Fridley wants, instead of the right thing. And Steiger could be briefed on how if one has a clean record in recent years, four years, to perhaps have a little understanding and not ticket a man going to work, doing his part to positively contribute to society. I understand keeping the roads safe. I do not believe that a little fast is always unsafe.
Thank you for your time, Mr. Mayor.
Lastly, please have Greg EMAIL me.
He is not very efficient using the telephone.
Thanks again!
PS- Officer Steiger, get a clue. No need to be a d*** and ticket a hard-working man enroute to work, moving with the flow of traffic on a busy road. You have taught me to NEVER cooperate with a pig. Invoke the 5th, ask if I am being detained, and make your job difficult. That's what I learned. What did I gain by promptly giving you my license, insurance, and polite, prompt answers to your stupid questions? A ticket. I will NEVER be cooperative with an "officer" again. Cops like you are thugs, losers, kids grown up that were picked on in school and now taking it out on your neighbors. You made my life complicated, expensive and I lost money taking work off to deal with Greg's dumb a**. You and bad cops like you will NEVER receive my respect or cooperation. Nice work. ;)
Prosecutor Gerg Herrick- wipe that smug grin off your face, grow a pair, and work WITH the people, do the RIGHT thing and don't be a sellout. Serve and protect? Hardly. You are exemplary of what is disgusting and unbelievable with the legal system. You must be a miserable person. Good luck in life.
Mayor Lund- Get back to people who email you. Not sure what is so difficult with that? I certainly didn't vote for you. Monitor your public servants a little better. There are bigger fish to fry other than 9 to 5ers going to work. This is America. People like myself are hard-working, no criminal record, and in no need of creeps like Steiger and Herrick running amok.
Sorry I had to take to ripoffreport.com. Hard to process this and share my feelings when Herrick and the mayor dont get back to you. Well, Herrick screwed me and wasted my time then, like a champ, wouldn't return my voicemails. No cursing, no threats, just asking a question. Cowards in position of power are not what the people need.
Regards,
:)

I responded to a add on craigslist in Jan 2016 about some gift cards for sale the seller had menards and home depot . I was running a start up snow removal business and wanted a new snow blower. The man selling the gift cards told me the home depot was already sold but he still had menards. I had a kohls charge account and he was willing to trade dollar for dollar kohls for menards but warned me he was a cop and not to try any funny stuff. When I learned he was a cop I decided I didnt want to do business with him and that his crads was probably stolen and told him so. He wanted to meet me to fight and I declined his offer. 5 days later I get a call to bid a fake snow job in Fridley Mn fridley cops usings fake names with real address. I gave a bid that couldnt be refused I wanted the work but was turned down as I was leaving the bid 4 fridley squads followed me honking horns and shaking fists out their windows laughing for stealing my time and gas money to bid job it was probably every officer on duty that day. I went home and called Scott Lund who said this cant be true his officers are held to a higher standard. The next day he says I didnt tell him a had a criminal record and what they did was ok.

Hi... I was unfortunate enough to live in Fridley for 9 years. The Fridley Police are basically useless. I had a situation where I had to go the the ER at Unity Hospital at the beginning of 2014. This was during a time when Minnesota had a very severe blizzard, and the roads were extremely slippery. Anyway, I needed a ride home from the ER after my visit. The taxi companies weren't picking up any new customers, so my only alternative was to walk home. (I had received a ride from my friend, who was on her way to work.)
Anyway, there was no one that I could call, so I started to walk the 3 miles from Unity Hospital to my apartment. FOUR Fridley squad cars drove by me as i was stumbling home at 1:00 AM on a Saturday morning on icy roads, and not ONE of those a**holes stopped to see if I needed any assistance. I wasn't intoxicated; the cops in those squad cars could see that I was a female, walking alone in -10 degree weather on icy roads with no sidewalk. Typical arrogant Fridley cops... Thank God that I moved out of that ***ed up town.
