Officers in Vallejo, California, bent badges, held barbecues, to mark each fatal police killing, ex-captain says. Vallejo, a Bay Area community of 122,000 people, has been in the spotlight for its high number of fatal police shootings in recent years.
The city did not respond to Whitney's retaliation claim, which said he expressed"his professional opinions on a variety of misconduct issues with the Police Department." Whitney said that his dismissal was related to an investigation about leaked information and he was accused of improperly handling information.
Efforts to reach Bidou, the retired police chief, by phone Thursday and Friday were not immediately successful, and an email to the Vallejo Police Officers' Association was not immediately returned Friday. His current employer, Pacific Gas & Electric, declined to make Bidou available, but said in a statement that the company"is aware of these serious allegations, which do not reflect our company values nor the expectations of our employees.
Williams said earlier this week that he would conduct an inquiry to"help me understand the culture of the department in a greater way and take corrective action." As McCoy woke up, six of the officers opened fire with 55 rounds, saying they feared he was grabbing for a weapon.Once Whitney learned about the badge bending, he"wanted an investigation done at that time and also sought to have that very disturbing practice end and be condemned," Wilkinson said.
