'My termination was never really about the facts or my ability to lead the Oakland Police Department - my termination was about Federal Monitor Robert Warshaw and the mayor's failure to fight for the Oakland community,' Armstrong said.
Former Oakland Police Chief LeRonne Armstrong fired back at Mayor Sheng Thao and the federal monitor after his termination earlier this week.We're hearing from former Oakland Police Chief LeRonne Armstrong for the first time since he was fired earlier this week by Mayor Sheng Thao. We've learned two Oakland police lieutenants have been put on paid administrative leave for mishandling the investigations which led to Armstrong's termination.
"First I'd like to say I was wrongly terminated for standing up for the City of Oakland," said former Chief Armstrong. "As police chief, I did my job and I think I did it well." He was terminated by Mayor Sheng Thao on Wednesday. "I am no longer confident that Chief Armstrong can do the work needed to achieve the vision," said Thao.
