Misconduct committed by Tony Ross, Chief of Police of Tulelake, CA

Tulelake, CA— On Tuesday February 18, 2014 there is a regular city council meeting set for 7PM. The city council could also have a special council meeting at 5 PM on Tuesday, to the discuss the termination of Tony Ross, the Chief of Police who has committed misconduct, and should now face the consequences of his actions/non-actions by the complaints made against him by James C. Garland aka TNT.

James C. Garland who at the last city council meeting filed a Personnel Complaint against Tony Ross, the Chief of Police of Tulelake and the complaint was signed and accepted by Co-Police Commissioners Dar Carroll and Tom Cordonier and Tulelake Council members.

Penal Code section 832.5 requires each department or agency which employs peace officers to establish a procedure for investigating citizens' complaints against such officers. Each department or agency is required to make available to the public a written description of the procedure it uses. Complaints, reports, or findings must be retained for a period of at least five years.

Chapter 9 - Peace Officer Misconduct or Abuse

It is the policy of the California Department of Justice that local government will be primarily responsible for citizen complaints against law enforcement agencies and their employees, and that appropriate local resources (e.g., sheriff or police department, district attorney, citizens' review commission and/or grand jury) be utilized for resolution of such complaints prior to a request for intervention by the Attorney General. All complaints filed with the California Department of Justice will be processed and reviewed by the Attorney General's Public Inquiry Unit to determine whether all local remedies have been exhausted. Complaints meeting this criterion are then forwarded to and reviewed by the Attorney General's Criminal Law Division and Civil Rights Enforcement Section. If the complaint alleges that the local district attorney wrongfully declined to criminally prosecute the officer-involved, the Criminal Law Division may review the matter to determine whether the district attorney abused his or her discretion in declining to bring criminal charges and take whatever other action that the Attorney General may deem appropriate. Complaints that raise alleged patterns or practices of the violation of civil rights by a local law enforcement agency may be reviewed by the Civil Rights Enforcement Section for whatever action that the Attorney General may deem appropriate.

Comments

  1. Eight days before the EPO was written on February 22, 2014. A former Tulelake Police officer of Tulelake spent city of Tulelake time in a patrol car and uniform with one of my accusers late into the evenings some times information that was received by a reliable source. This person also has made accusations about me jumping out of the bushes by the Tulelake Post Office. Maybe people should look at those bushes that I have been accused of jumping out of and see if they think that is even possible or not?
