Breaking ‘Textgate’ report on Berkeley Police’s illegal arrest quotas and targeting of poor, unhoused and Black Berkeley residents shows that the Bike Taskforce used predatory policing tactics which resulted in hundreds of unnecessary arrests.

Less than 72 hours after BPD shut down the Chess Club (a community mainstay on Telegraph Ave), the organizer Jessie Sheehan was brutally arrested. For hours, he was disappeared into the system, tortured, abandoned at a hospital in Pleasanton, and then cited and released.

In 2017, Off. Richard Marble racially profiled, cuffed and pushed a Black man to the ground without probable cause. Five years later, he pulled a gun on two Black men while off duty. How many more incidents is BPD sitting on?

Peter Radu, assistant to the city manager, publicly apologized for @CityofBerkeley's actions, pledging to collaborate with people moving forward.But, the City is once again repeating its pattern of destructive and illegal conduct less than a year later.

#Berkeley faces a mental healthcare gap. Crises are handled with involuntary psychiatric holds by @BerkeleyPolice.“Until that care team comes, the only other people who can do a 5150 is us and MH,” said Officer Valle.“And we don't have any therapists anymore. That's the problem.”

BREAKING:@CityofBerkeley is restrained from forcing to relocate unhoused residents at the 8th and Harrison camp for a “Health Hazard and Emergency Abatement.” Plaintiffs, some with disabilities,have been unable to access resources for relocation, like storage and housing support.
