Citing spikes in the use of excessive force, State Attorney General Rob Bonta announced Wednesday his office was launching a civil rights investigation into the troubled Antioch police force.
"Public safety is built on trust," Bonta said at a morning news conference."Unfortunately, we are here today because there may well have been a breach of trust in the Antioch Police Department. We are launching a pattern and practice investigation of the Antioch Police Department after multiple and long-standing concerns, complaints, data that is absolutely concerning and needs attention.
"Those texts are hard to read," Bonta continued."They are racist. They are homophobic. They are misogynist. And they aren't just comments unrelated to official duty. They are directly related to official duties." If the investigation finds that APD officers have engaged in discriminatory conduct, Bonta's office could take a number of actions.
