We have been monitoring a few court cases at the District Level that involve The City of Manteca & a few employees.
Its our Duty to inform residents of Manteca when we see violations ,dishonesty or possible over reach.
The City of Manteca has a policy in place regarding MAV (Mobile Audio & Video ) policy 444.2
(basically states patrol cars will have working GPS & Dash camera units in every car and they check to see if they are operational at start of every Officers shift, if they are not working they switch vehicles .)
This Policy is to protect residents of Manteca and Officers . This also helps the City of Manteca be transparent with its Citizens.
The issue our Citizens Watchdog Group has discovered while actively monitoring Federal Civil Cases in the Ninth Circuit is
the City of Manteca clearly has violated there own policy and from the video we have obtained its showing clear civil rights violations that can not be excused or explained in a way that makes any behavior valid .
We have decided to not to release these bodycams to the public because the MAV (dash cam footage is being withheld and the way they withheld it is unethical and dishonest , either way The City of Manteca is in violation of there policy they created .
We are going to let this run its course because there has been alot of clear factual evidence submitted by the Plaintiff , no he say she say evidence .
