Following impassioned public comment from Vallejo families impacted by police violence, officials at the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) on Thursday committed to investigating nine current and former Vallejo officers under a new law that could ultimately see them stripped of their peace officer powers.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California filed a complaint on Oct. 11 urging POST to investigate allegations of serious misconduct and begin decertifying Vallejo officers under the Kenneth Ross Jr. Police Decertification Act of 2021, also known as Senate Bill 2.
