Overview

• A seven-page ACLU letter accuses City Attorney Veronica Nebb’s office of destroying hundreds of police shooting records and covering up hiring of officers with disqualifying histories.
• Advocacy groups and city employees allege the office retaliated against whistleblower officers and obstructed the Civilian Police Oversight and Accountability Commission since its 2022 creation.
• The letter raises concerns about a dual system of police records that may have hidden misconduct files from judges and plaintiffs in criminal and civil proceedings.
• The City Attorney’s Office denies all allegations as inaccurate and insists it has upheld honesty and integrity in serving Vallejo.
• Civil rights lawyers warn that unresolved allegations risk deepening public distrust and undermining efforts to address Vallejo’s longstanding use-of-force crisis.
