The U.S. DOJ is investigating the Mount Vernon Police Department for civil rights violations including excessive force and the California Attorney General is investigating the Los Angeles area Torrance Police Department over officers trading racist and homophobic text messages and joked about beatings, slavery and police shootings.

During an arrest in February 2018 Palo Alto police Sergeant Wayne Benitez is seen in home surveillance video smashing the face of a HAND CUFFED suspect who allegedly was driving on a suspended license. Benitez clearly violated PC 149. He then knowingly made a false statement in the police report when he stated that he did not use any force.
Additionally Sgt. Benitez mocked the suspect, Alvarez, for being gay.

Officers DeStefano and Conde witnessed the excessive force but never said anything about holding Benitez accountable. Instead, Officer Destefano shared a text with fellow officer Kevin Mullarkey applauding Benitez’ use of excessive force and Officer Mullarkey replying with excited approval having witnessed similar actions in the past.

Police Chief Robert Jonsen stated that he holds officers accountable when they violate policy and the law. But Jonsen knew what Benitez did but allowed him to retire without ever holding him accountable.
Chief Robert Jonsen violated POST Standards

It was only after the home surveillance video that was produced by the victim that forced DA Jeff Rosen to prosecute Benitez for his violations of the law for prior to viewing that video DA Rosen said he did not have the evidence to prosecute Benitez because the PAPD command staff covered up Benitez’ actions by suppressing the evidence.
Despite video footage and Benitez being prosecuted by the pro-cop DA Jeff Rosen Chief Jonsen has not stated whether Benitez violated any department policies or the law. Chief Jonsen refuses to condemn Benitez’ actions.
This is nothing new for Chief Jonsen as he was condemned by the U.S. DOJ for using an unwritten policy of violating the civil rights of African Americans during the time, 2011 through 2013, when he was the captain/chief of the Lancaster Sheriff’s station.

I wonder what other texts of hatred, bigotry and violations of the law Attorney General Rob Bonta would uncover if he conducted a thorough investigation of the Palo Alto Police Department.
Now what is interesting about Officer Kevin Mullarkey is that six months before he praised Sgt. Benitez in a text message for using excessive force in violation of the law Officer Mullarkey knowingly and deliberately with the help of Officer Paul Burgio falsely arrested me in Starbucks.
Their motive was to instigate an incident by which I could be arrested for resisting arrest. They let me go claiming that they miss-identified me as someone else. But that is not true for both Mullarkey and Burgio knew who I was before the incident and therefore knew I was not the person whom they claimed I was.
The entire conspiracy was perpetrated as a retaliatory act on behalf of a fellow officer, Kelly Burger, who, along with several other officers whom I exposed destroying, editing and falsifying evidence including audio video recordings and taser gun activation date in order to cover up their false arrest and excessive force of me several years earlier.
How do we know members of the PAPD destroyed and falsified evidence in violation of the law?

In Andrew Hinz’ expert reports he states that no electricity was discharged through Officer Burger’s taser wires yet Officer Burger stated at the scene of the incident that he was shocked from his own taser wires.
Now the only way Office Burger could have been shocked with electricity from touching the wires is if the insulation in the wires burned off which only occurs after electricity has been discharged through the wires for over 15 seconds.
The video footage of Office Burger discharging electricity from his taser gun is missing from the patrol car video and his taser camera video.

8 months after the incident Officer Temores testified in court that he did not fire taser probes from his taser gun. However, at the scene of the incident Officer Burger stated to the medics that Temores did in fact fire taser probes from his taser gun.
The video footage of Temores firing taser probes from his taser gun is missing from his patrol car video as well as his taser camera video.
Former Chief Dennis Burns stated in a discovery request that Temores’ taser cartridge, taser probes, AFIDS and taser wires were destroyed because the cartridge broke.
What Happened:
So what happened is that the PAPD destroyed Officer Burger’s tase wires which would show he discharged electricity into Ciampi for over twenty seconds and replaced Burger’s taser wires with Temores taser wires for no electricity was discharged through Temores’ taser wires which is how Andrew Hinz of Taser International could draw his conclusion.
But that does not get Hinz off the hook for he forensically analyzed the taser gun data ports and taser cameras and made the mistake of acknowledging the actual taser cameras that recorded the incident were not the ones that the PAPD claimed were the cameras that recorded the incident.
HInz followed it up by stating that the cameras that recorded the incident were destroyed by Taser International.

Former Palo Alto Police Officer Manuel Temores
Officer Temores testified that the battery on his microphone ran out of power and therefore there was no audio recording with the video.
Santa Clara County Crime Lab Analyst Christopher Corpora forensically verified that there is audio on the recording but that it had been electronically muted so that it could not be heard.

This is Palo Alto Police Sgt. Alex Afanasiev.

This is Palo Alto Police Sgt. Alex Afanasiev.
He was tasked with photographing all of the evidence at the scene of the incident. This means he would have photographed Officer Temores’ broken taser cartridge yet the PAPD did not have a photograph of Temores’ broken taser cartridge. Why? Because it was not broken and Afanasiev knows this.
Afanasiev should have photographed Officer Temores’ taser cartridge, taser probes, blast doors, AFIDS and taser wires. There were no photographs of any of these items because the PAPD destroyed the photographs.
Afanasiev should have photographed Officer Temores’ taser cartridge, taser probes, blast doors, AFIDS and taser wires. There were no photographs of any of these items because the PAPD destroyed the photographs.
Above Officer Burger is holding a taser probe in his hand that was given to him by Officer Temores at the scene of the incident. Either Afanasiev photographed this taser probe and the photograph was destroyed or Afanasiev deliberately did not photograph the taser probe. The PAPD had to destroy the photograph of this taser probe because they destroyed the taser probe. The PAPD destroyed the taser probe because they had to destroy the evidence that showed they edited and falsified the videos.
Sergeant Alex Afanasiev knows everything about how his fellow officers destroyed, altered and falsified evidence and created falsified videos; fake videos that are pieces of fiction created out of non-fiction in order to conceal his fellow officers’ crimes while wrongly incriminating their victim by falsely portraying what actually occurred.

Sergeant Alex Afanasiev took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. The statuette of limitations to hold his fellow officers accountable have expired but there is no time limit, no statute of limitations on defending the Constitution. Sgt. Afanasiev’s fellow officers have attacked and destroyed the Constitution; Sgt. Afanasiev gave his Word as a man to defend that Constitution from anyone who would destroy it. Sgt. Afanasiev can honor his Word by picking up the phone and call Attorney General Rob Bonta and U.S. Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke, and inform them of everything he knows.

The existence of the Constitution is dependent upon people like Sgt. Afanasiev to put the Constitution above personal friendships and co-workers. In order for the Constitution to exist it requires that the people who are entrusted to protect it from being destroyed uphold it at all times.

Tyler Harney Incident
It’s unlikely that Sgt. Afanaiev will Honor his Word for he was involved in another incident with former officer Thomas DeStefano in which DeStefano severely injured a suspect'sshoulder. Both DeStefano’s and Afanasiev’s recording systems malfunctioned simultaneously. That excuse is about as good as a 5th grader saying his dog ate his homework.

Should a person who helped destroy and falsify evidence to conceal the crimes of fellow officers be a police officer?
Sergeant Alex Afanasiev knows all of this for he aided and abetted his fellow officers to commit numerous felonies and PAPD Chief Jonsen knows this and yet retains Afanasiev as a detective in the department.
8 incidents of police misconduct resulting in 14 recording devices, (that is known), to have failed to record the incidents:

Then again Palo Alto Police Captain April Wagner who is a co-conspirator of the destroying of evidence and the editing and falsifying of the videos and taser gun activation data has not only been retained by Police Chief Jonsen but has been promoted and placed in charge of all of the department’s videos.

This makes perfect sense given that recently retired police Sgt. Adrienne Moore delayed medical treatment to a middle age woman suffering symptoms from a brain tumor because Moore “assumed” the woman was faking it. Sgt. Moore failed to record the incident on her body camera, her patrol car camera and for some reason her patrol car GPS system also failed.
It’s been 2 ½ years since the incident and Chief Jonsen refuses to explain why Sgt. Moore’s recording devices and GPS system failed to work or whether Moore deliberately turned off the systems or if the data had been destroyed as indicated by City Attorney Molly Stump.
