The backstory is that I received an email reporting this last night, but asked where the talk came from. I was told it came from two "upset" Oakland Police Officers. One source remarked that it seemed the Oakland City Council "hated" the police, and had its crime reporting and processing "hands tied".
None of that automatically points to Oakland Police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick getting fired, but the other source claims that the action was done "last night". Then, the next word was "this is just rumor," so I'm reporting a rumor, as the headline reads.
One fact remains: the Oakland Police Department and the City Hall it reports to, is exceptionally dysfunctional.
Stay tuned.
