How could a cop fired for dishonesty end up teaching criminal justice at a Bay Area university?
Under California’s strict police privacy laws in effect in 2016, it would have been difficult for the university to learn anything about Neithercutt’s status with the Newark Police Department that he didn’t volunteer, said Jim Ewert, general counsel of the California News Publisher’s Association.
“This is a clear example of why SB 1421 is so important,” Ewert said. It allows the “public understanding of officer behavior and the ripple effect of where they end up, like colleges.”
