Damages to a Mercedes-Benz S600 cost roughly $14,000, insurance claim receipts show, in a hit-and-run at the center of the latest Oakland Police Department saga.
that this particular sergeant hit Perry's Mercedes two years ago, while he was with his girlfriend – another Oakland police officer.
An IA investigator was assigned to the case on Oct. 12, 2021, seven months after the bumper hit-and-run and three months after Chung's identity was made known. But Chung's captain – who now works for the East Bay Park District – ordered him to revise his report, downplaying the misconduct and excluding any mention of the sergeant’s dating relationship or his truthfulness, the report states.
Chung was put on paid administrative leave that same month. He is still on that leave today, nine months later. The failure to investigate internal misconduct, the report authors wrote, allows employees, like the sergeant, to commit more serious issues. However, U.S. District Judge William Orrick took up the issue at a court hearing on Tuesday, showing his dismay at what's going on at OPD.
