Chief Sanders Gets Medical Leave, Everyone Else Out
SFPD Chief and Top Brass All Indicted!
Latest News: Facing an unprecedented indictment of corruption in SFPD, the Police Commission decided to do absolutely nothing at a hearing today. All six commanding officers said they would "step aside" during the investigation. Chief Sanders has been suddenly struck ill and must take a "medical leave disability." Maybe frauding the public employee's medical disability laws is next on the agenda for the fallen chief? Terrence Hallinan has said he will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.
Monday, 12 Noon, 850 Bryant, Room 551: Join others to demand that the Police Chief, Mayor and others be immediately fired for their history of corruption and murder. Surprise indictments have cast a long shadow on Willie Brown and SFPD, including those who have helped cover up their brutality, like Amos Brown, Dianne Feinstein, and the entire editorial staff of the SF Chronicle. read more
Grand jury indictments against ten SFPD commanders and officers have created an unprecedented emergency for the Willie Brown political machine with the city awaiting almost all of the top brass to turn themselves in. New police chief Prentice Sanders and gestapo bureaucrat Alex Fagan were among those indicted. Years of corruption including frame-ups, murder, election fraud and even mass suicide are now thrown in the face of these "consummate professionals" (in the words of the equally corrupt SF Chronicle). As the U.S. rolls onward towards a war which will provoke intense domestic unrest in San Francisco, the city's old elite are finding their backs against the wall.
