I am a retired NYPD Cop. It’s one thing to give courtesy to a family member of another cop but when a family member puts other cops lives in jeopardy and tries to hit an Officer that’s totally different. In my career I showed a lot of courtesy to Cops family members and to the public in general as long as they were polite when I pulled them over but you try to hurt one of us all bets are off and I’m going to do what I have to do. This Chief needs to have a long talk with his sons before they kill someone and I have always been a Cops Cop in my career but when are these kids going to learn. Unfortunately they probably never will because it will be too late.

Good coverage. Mr. Phillips, Your child embarrased you, and, sullied your reputation. I blame Mr. Harden, how is this letter public? And Mr. Harden, come on sir, protocol calls for better treatment of Seargent Gray based on this matter alone, if this article is acurate. Please, make certain Mr. Harden-that Officer Gray knows you shall do the right thing; which would be to not allow any officers to stretch the laws for their kids. Now, when the kid rams a patrol car, and takes it to the next level, officer Phillips maybe better get some help for his kid, and not blame officer Gray. My goodness what kind of bosses are you anyway?

i personally think scott phillips is a messed up kid who commits alot of crimes,drinking and driving,trespassing in our neighborhood pool and drinking and being loud,and plenty more im guessing.he should be thrown in jail and his dad should be fired.they are a worthless piece of shit family.excuse the language but that is my opinion.

I live in Sabal Lakes, the same neighborhood that the Phillips family lives in. I’ve seen Scotty and his buddies still creeping around late at night since he was sentenced. There is absolutely no good reason for these young men to be going from driveway to driveway and going through the unlocked cars.

This slack chin, punk and his bully cop dad need to move away from this area and find a place where their dumb ass acts are appreciated.

I think all of you have too much time on your hands. Why don’t you worry about your own life, I know you got problems. As for the cops, Phillips did what all parents would have done, helped their kid. But when the kid went too far Phillips did not help him get out of trouble; no, his son was punished more then a drug dealer would be. Isn’t that fair enough? He is a kid just out of high school and I know none of you are perfect. So let the person who is without sin cast the first stone. You can’t and neither can Gray. So leave this family alone. What’s done is done and let it be.

The public will never know the real truth. The good old boys club is back and stronger than ever before. After we finally got rid of Chief Kilgore the department continued to get better and better. Chief Overman took it to highs the City never thought were possible. DBPD was “the” department in all of Palm Beach County, no one could compare. Then Chief Schroeder did an OK job keeping us a float. Then when he left, for some reason, the city only opened applications to “in house”. Well when you are the only one person that applies I guess you win by default. Hence, with what we have now, the good old boys club is back in full swing and stronger than ever before. One lies and the other swears to it. Assistant Chief Phillips is one of the dirtiest cops I have ever had the displeasure of knowing. He is the one bad apple that will spoil the whole bunch, and he is proving that, in house has known it for many years, but now the public can finally see what that monster is capabile of. Time for Delray Beach to do some much overdue house cleaning.

Let’s see, Asst. Chief Ralph Phillips, and Sergeant Vinny (DUI) Gray - 2 well known, well respected, officers who have served the City of Delray Beach for more than 20 years. DBPD has had it’s share of problems over the years, I was one of the boys in blue. This is a no win situation for anyone involved, Gray, Philllips, or the City. Both have the time necessary, and should think about retiring. Why drag each other through the mud? Being a cop is tough, decisions are made at the drop of a hat, and you have to live by them right or wrong. It’s time guys, look on the other side of the fence and move on o bigger and better things. It would be best for all involved

Remember Ex- Boca Raton Police Chief Andy Scott? He committed one heinous act and let a friend go. Chief Andy Scott lost his job over it.

Yet Chief Ralph Phillips in Delray has involved himself with 8 criminal acts of various cover-ups and the people of Delray Beach still allow him to remain in office. Wake up Delray Citizens!! Rid this Police Department of corruption.

The good news is FDLE will take corrupt Phillips out of office because nobody in the Delray Beach City Government has the balls to do it.

Chief Strianese should become a leader and ask Phillips to resign before he is criminally charged.
