The California Department of Justice will oversee reforms to the Vallejo Police Department for the next five years under a consent decree following a series of police shootings and misconduct cases over the past several years, Attorney General Rob Bonta announced Monday.
During a press conference at Vallejo City Council chambers, Bonta said the state DOJ entered into a stipulated judgment with the Vallejo PD and the City of Vallejo with regard to ongoing reforms to the police department's policies and practices. The agreement resolves the DOJ's complaint against Vallejo Police alleging the department routinely violated individuals' constitutional rights and engaged in a pattern of unconstitutional conduct.
The ACLU filed suit in 2022 against the city of Vallejo to compel it to release public records regarding the badge-bending practice. A petition filed by the ACLU in 2022 showed that while 22% of Vallejo residents are Black, only 7% of officers are Black. In addition, half of all police use-of-force incidents between 2017 and 2019 were against Black residents, according to department data cited in the petition.Meanwhile, the reform efforts agreed to in 2020 stalled.
