Two Seattle police union leaders are under scrutiny after body camera footage caught one of them joking over the death of a young woman killed by a police cruiser.
Now, records obtained by Open Vallejo show that days after the conversation was recorded, one of the union officials implicated in the scandal was involved in canceling a contract for a body camera analysis service that risked flagging the unprofessional comments to higher-ups.
The Vallejo and Seattle police departments are the only law enforcement agencies to have ever terminated their contracts with Truleo, the Chicago-based company behind the software. In both cases, union officials campaigned to stop their department from using the technology after it allegedly risked surfacing problematic officer behavior.
On Jan. 23, Ofc. Daniel Auderer, the vice president of the Seattle Police Officers Guild, was assigned to perform a routine sobriety test on Kevin Dave, the police officer who struck 23-year-old graduate student Jaahnavi Kandula while driving his police car.

That's what happens when the city council gets rid of or mandates they're getting rid of 100 cops from the Seattle PD and 200 quit. The end result is those who stay are often those of not the best quality. I know, when I was working at my Army reserve unit in Marysville washington, the captain below me in my civil Affairs section quit Seattle PD and set an officers went with him to Everett Police Department.
When you have blue cities at half radical communist City councils and vote to defund the police, this is the consequence that happens but the new Democratic party that I don't recognize anymore doesn't believe in the carceral state, as District Attorneys from George Soros who don't prosecute crimes and considers all criminal Saints and says foxtrot !to the victims.
The morale the police department is low and all drugs are legal in Washington state. This is all done by a self-inflicted leftist democratic Run state.
