Shady Private Security Force To Occupy New Hardin Prison

[Sol Invictus]

This is shady and very ominous.. The Militias in the area are on high alert.

Notice "Captain Michael's" attempt at hiding his accent in his phone interview, and notice the double headed eagle on their logo.. Is this a foreign paramilitary organization operating within United State's prison systems? This sounds like a Blackwater-style Mercenary force being contracted to round up potential 'terrorists' and intern them indefinately.

# APF's website claims that the group "successfully provided assistance in training foreign military organizations in combating transnational terrorism" and boasts that it's "recognized as one of the top security and investigation forces in the world." Too bad no one's ever heard of them — not even the U.S. government, a group with which APF says it has worked.


# In addition to fighting terrorism overseas and defending democracy, the group's online digs say APF's renaissance agents work on "kidknapping [sic]" cases, investigate cheating spouses and offer convoy security in places like Pakistan. We love a well-rounded trooper.


# A group spokesperson who called himself "Captain Michael" told local news channel KULR 8 that APF's more interested in setting up a $17 million training camp than in operating the prison. This man would not specify how they plan to use the camp.


# Another fun fact: the group's press secretary is a woman named Becky Shays, who used to be a reporter for Montana's Billings Gazette and covered the Hardin Prison story. Now that she's in her new role, however, she's not so big on disclosure: she told her former colleagues that she will not name the APF's true leaders, the source of its funding or how it plans to take its future prisoners.

Mont. lawmakers want info on secretive CA company

BILLINGS, Mont.—Montana legislators said Tuesday they want to know more about a secretive California company that wants to take over an empty jail in the southeastern corner of the state and build a military training center on adjacent property.

The company, American Police Force, has attracted widespread attention with its plans—but won't reveal its backers or where it would get prisoners for the jail, located in the rural city of Hardin.

With Hardin officials also saying little about the company, rumors have flourished. On a Web site run by right-wing radio show host Alex Jones, a posting claimed that employees of American Police Force had "occupied" the city and started patrolling its streets.

Montana Rep. Bob Ebinger said more rumors were likely until Hardin and the company provide more details.

"Always when things are secretive, you end up getting everybody—on both the right and the left—making suppositions about what's going on," said Ebinger, a Democrat from Livingston.

Ebinger and other members of the Legislature's Law and Justice Committee said they would ask Hardin officials to provide more information about the company.

In addition to taking over the 464-bed, $27 million jail, the company has said it will sink $17 million into a military training center and is seeking 5,000 acres or more for a live-fire training ground.

Company spokeswoman Becky Shay said there were no plans to reveal the project's

financial backers.

"We're still sitting tight," said Shay, who took the job with American Police Force last week after abruptly leaving the Billings Gazette, where she had written extensively about the jail over the last several years.

Hardin built the jail two years ago as an economic development project but was never able to find any prisoners.

Its agreement with American Police Force—worth at least $2.6 million a year—has yet to be validated by U.S. Bank, the trustee on the construction bonds used to pay for the facility.

Those bonds went into default in May, 2008.

There’s a new sheriff in town without the consent of the town

If you have ever lived in a small rural town you know there are many cities in America who Govern themselves and they do it quite well. They have balanced budgets and volunteer fire departments. They have very low crime and people know who their neighbors are. The only problem for a small town in Montana is a new police force suddenly showed up without the consent of city officials.

Hardin, Montana is the new home of the Two Rivers Detention Center, which is one of the places being considered to house Gitmo detainees or terrorists. Until now the town has had a contract with the county sheriff’s department to handle any trouble that may arise. Now according to reports citizens are being harassed by a private police force contracted to guard the facility. They have etched the town’s logo on the side of Mercedes that reads Harden Police and began patrolling the streets as you can see in the video.

Town officials claim that APF (American Police Force) which is a private Saudi owned company according to reports was only hired to guard the facility. The citizens of the town however are telling a different story. Compared by many to Blackwater, APF is reportedly an international paramilitary company employing foreign mercenaries. Witnesses say many of the so called officers have thick foreign accents.

Citizens claim to have been stopped at road blocks and one business owner claims to have been told by an APF employee that they have a register list of all gun owners in the town. Stories are developing as the plot thickens. The company refuses to release information on the parent company but many computer savvy individuals have already discovered the APF shares operations with American Police Group, DPSNA, and Allied Defense Systems. Is this another private contractor like Halliburton or KBR?

Is it Constitutional for a private paramilitary police force with foreign mercenaries belonging to a foreign owned company to be patrolling the streets of an American city?

City officials claim to have had no discussions on the issue of this company patrolling the streets yet there they are. This story is still developing.

Doesn't the outsourcing of prisons simply show how inefficient federal, state and local law enforcement in the U.S. has become? I remember this topic coming up in a law class that I took in college, the summary of which could be that U.S. law enforcement agencies are often underfunded, understaffed, etc. The sheer number of criminals incarcerated requires X amount of personnel and such, and the budgets of the various law enforcement agencies aren't always adequete to meet the demands of the inmate population. So, outsourcing prisons to essentially mercenary concerns is cheaper in the long run. There were no sinister overtones, it was just treated as a business (scarily, I admit).

The only thing inefficient about the state of law enforcement today is their inability to keep their Oaths. If the Sheriff of said county in Montana had any regard for his Oath, instead of conveniently going missing, then he would kick these son of a bitch foreign troops out of his county for trespassing and harassing citizens in his county.

When, in the History of America has foreign troops been contracted to maintain prison camps and harass American citizens ? You're making this sound like it's buisness as usual in America, dude. Most normal people would call this an invasion and foreign occupation.

I've been a citizen of the United States for nearly thirty-three years and have roamed about a fair portion of the northeast and down into the Carolinas and Virginia and once into Florida (too hot there for my tastes). Never once have I seen any sort of foreign occupation force or evidence to the contrary.

American Police Force, the paramilitary unit patrolling a small town in Montana, has been exposed as being a front group for the disgraced private military contractor Blackwater, now called “Xe”.

The American Police Force website, on a page that has swiftly been deleted but remains cached here (http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:pufYvvcLj3AJ:www.americanpolicegrou p.com/special.html%2B%22extensive%2Btactical%2Bfirearms% 2Btraining%2Bfacility,%2Bthe%2Bu.s.%2Btraining%2Bc enter%22&cd=5&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk), states that APF runs the “U.S. Training Center,” which proves “a wide range of instruction and training for all types of law enforcement organizations, from basic firearms training to complex SWAT tactics,” according to the website.

The Blackwater website carries on its contact page the following address, underneath the logo for U.S. Training Center.

Xe Services, LLC
PO Box 1029
Moyock, NC 27958

Xe Services LLC is the new name of Blackwater USA. In addition, the U.S. Training Center contact page carries the exact same address.

PO Box 1029
Moyock, NC 27958

The U.S. Training Center is run by Blackwater. Indeed, The U.S. Training Center website, can be accessed via Blackwater’s forwarding URL at http://www.blackwaterusa.com/.

According to a February 2009 NY Times article, the U.S. Training Center is a Blackwater “subsidiary that conducts much of the company’s overseas operations and domestic training.” Blackwater changed the name of the facility from its old title, Blackwater Lodge and Training Center, earlier this this when they also changed their own name to “Xe”.

Since Blackwater runs the U.S. Training Center, and the American Police Force stated on its own website, before it was deleted this morning, that it also runs the U.S. Training Center, there is no other conclusion to draw but that APF and Blackwater are one and the same. Or in other words, APF is a front group for Blackwater.
