A racist texting scandal embroiling the Antioch Police Department prompted outrage at Tuesday’s City Council meeting from Mayor Lamar Thorpe, who shouted at a speaker during public comment.
Antioch's mayor had harsh words Tuesday for members of the police department who have been caught up in an FBI investigation over racist text messages.
After an investigation revealed that Antioch Police Department officers had allegedly used racist language in texts, the Contra Costa County Public Defender told KRON4 that all of the cases the department has been involved in will need to be reviewed.
