Nearly Fifty Sworn California Police Officers In A Single County Are On Desk Duty After Officials Ruled Their Psych Evaluation Scores Were Too Low For Them To Continue Working On The Streets Or In Jails
2022-09-29
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Alameda County Sheriff's Office removed 47 deputies from law enforcement duties after it was revealed they received unsatisfactory psychological exam results

  • The 47 deputies represent 5 percent of the 1,000-member force

  • A spokesperson said retesting will begin in the next 'couple months,' and will be performed by an outside firm

  • A former deputy who was charged with murder reportedly failed his exam before he was hired on to the Sheriff's Office

  • Anonymous sources claim the exam process under current sheriff Gregory Ahern is flawed

#10  I'm surprised its not higher as the current doctrine is aggression. Escalate to intimidate. And I would think psychologists would consider anyone that truly believe these tactics to be unhinged.

Imagine if Californians voters could demand that their Politicians take and pass the same Psych Evaluations. If they fail, they can't vote on any issues until judged safe again to society.

BTW: what if the failing the Psych Evaluation is a sneaky way of getting to still draw a paycheck and not having to get shot at.
