The Albuquerque police chief is facing scrutiny after it was revealed that he knew about a scandal involving the dismissal of DWI cases within the department. According to a report by KRQE News 13, Chief Harold Medina was aware of the issue and failed to take proper action.
The scandal stems from an internal investigation that uncovered officers dismissing DWI cases without proper justification. This led to concerns about the integrity of the department and its ability to effectively address drunk driving in the community. Despite being informed of the issue, Chief Medina reportedly did not take appropriate steps to address the misconduct.
The revelation has sparked outrage among community members and local officials, who are demanding accountability from Chief Medina and the police department. Many are calling for a thorough investigation into the matter to determine the extent of the problem and ensure that it is properly addressed.
In response to the backlash, Chief Medina has pledged to take immediate action to address the issue and restore public trust in the department. He has promised to hold officers accountable for their actions and implement measures to prevent similar misconduct from occurring in the future.
As the scandal continues to unfold, it remains to be seen what consequences Chief Medina and the Albuquerque police department will face. The community is watching closely as they seek justice for the victims affected by the dismissed DWI cases and accountability for those responsible.
