One thing that police departments and officers hate is accountability. It’s exactly what we learned when Chesa Boudin sent someone through a 22-week training at the police academy.
The findings are SHOCKING. These are some of the most disgusting and unbelievable anecdotes we’ve heard from police — and this was just as they were TRAINING.
The quotes we are going to share make it clear that the culture of violence, misogyny, and bigotry runs DEEP within police departments.
When we worked hard to elect Chesa Boudin as San Francisco DA in 2017, he did exactly what he promised when he came into office: to implement real police accountability.
And he was hated for it.
That hatred wasn’t just passive. Instructors and officers in the police academy made their animosity toward Chesa very clear — even engrained it in training at times.
From mistreating cadets in the academy to bad-mouthing Chesa and discrediting credible courses about implicit bias, this journal goes in depth about the problems with policing.
The anecdotes that this investigator exposed from his time at the academy are simply outrageous. Let’s highlight just a few out of the dozens we could share:
He explained how instructors tell the class they are being forced to teach about implicit bias — which studies show is a big reason why Black people are stopped more often by police and also shot more often than white people. The instructors even go as far as to say that implicit biases are fake concepts invented by “woke ANTIFA liberals.”
This cadet also shed light on the lack of teachings about the fundamental principle of innocence until proven guilty. One of the instructors even declared that cops should have the right to kill folks because they are preventing crime by eliminating them.
This is the current training of policing in America: no due process, just kill folks if you deem they are bad guys. They even coined the term “tennis shoe tax” which refers to the beating after someone made cops chase after them — like how Memphis police officers beat Tyre Nichols even harder after he tried to escape their assault.
These are just a few of the journal entries which highlight the violent, racist, and misogynistic culture of police departments in the U.S. And it also reveals how police officers hated Chesa Boudin because he worked to hold them accountable when they committed violence. It’s why the SF police union was so adamant in recalling him, and why the new DA is now rolling back all of Chesa’s efforts for police accountability.
Whether police officers like it or not, the consequences of their crimes are human lives, and that’s why we need to keep working to elect DAs who will hold them accountable and also implement real public safety solutions to stop police violence before it happens.
Thank you for taking action,
