Welcome to CLEAT! 🎉 Hadley Gable has joined CLEAT Legal as a Staff Attorney in the Dallas Office.
Hadley brings a commitment to hard work, integrity, and discipline shaped by years of athletic and scholastic achievement. As an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Mississippi, she became the inaugural Director of the Children’s Justice Division and served as legal representative to the only Mississippi agency committed to the welfare of vulnerable children statewide. She and those under her leadership were the first line of defense against neglect and abuse. Furthermore, Hadley and her team also criminally prosecuted individuals who failed to pay child support.
Hadley previously served in multiple roles for the Mississippi Department of Human Services, including Inspector General, Senior Attorney, and Chief of Staff for the Deputy Executive Director. As Inspector General, she oversaw the Programmatic Quality Control, SNAP Quality Control, Administrative Hearings, Investigations, Claims and Benefit Recovery Unit, and Internal Audit divisions.
Upon completion of her Juris Doctorate degree at Mississippi College School of Law in 2011, Hadley worked in private legal practice for four years until joining MDHS in 2017.
Hadley was selected to the 2020 Class of MEC’s Leadership Mississippi. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from Mississippi State University, where she was a four-year letter recipient for the Mississippi Soccer Team.
Please join us in welcoming Hadley to CLEAT!
At CLEAT, supporting and appreciating law enforcement isn’t reserved for just one day of the year. But we’ll gladly take another excuse to say "THANK YOU!" 💙
On Thank a Police Officer Day, we recognize the officers who show up every day to serve their communities, protect others, and answer the call.
To law enforcement officers everywhere: thank you for all you do.
🚨 IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CLEAT Expresses Concern Over Law Enforcement Technology Reversal in Hays County 🚨
“The concern is that the current sentiment swirling in the media and across the country surrounding law enforcement technology is negatively impacting basic needs and advancements in current equipment and software...” said CLEAT Executive Director Robert Leonard. “These tools are paramount to public safety, enhance law enforcement service to the community, are a force multiplier, and ensure efficiency.”

A big win in San Angelo. 👏
The San Angelo City Council voted 7-0 yesterday to ratify a new one-year Meet and Confer agreement with the San Angelo Police Officers Coalition.
The agreement includes pay increases to bring salaries to more comparable benchmarks, a new process for out-of-state lateral peace officers, a physical fitness incentive, and a budget for cardiac testing related to presumptive coverage.
SAPOC President and longtime CLEAT member Blue Flores credited CLEAT and Jeff Lake for helping the association navigate a particularly challenging negotiation.
“This year especially could not have been done without CLEAT or Jeff,” he said. “Jeff was prepared for it all and his ability to advocate and tenaciously defend our position was a major benefit.”
Congratulations to SAPOC on getting this agreement across the finish line and continuing to move the profession forward for San Angelo officers. 💪
CLEAT fights for Lubbock County Sheriff’s Office!
Field Representative Pete Faraone went before Lubbock County Commissioners Court to address the consequences of uncompetitive pay at the Sheriff’s Office, including employee turnover, morale, and the continued challenge of retaining experienced officers and detention staff. He also called for transparency surrounding the county’s taxpayer-funded compensation study and urged county leaders to take meaningful action instead of continuing to push the issue down the road.
CLEAT will continue fighting for the men and women who serve Lubbock County and making sure their concerns are heard where decisions are made.
We also want to thank County Judge Parrish and Commissioner Dalby for their support of an across-the-board pay increase for Lubbock County employees. That support matters, and we appreciate their willingness to recognize the need to invest in the people who keep Lubbock County running.
