The Antioch Police Department is also the subject of two civil lawsuits following the release of the text messages.
An embattled East Bay police department is now under state investigation following last month's revelations of officers sending racist and homophobic text messages.
In one message, an officer offered to buy a"prime rib dinner" for anyone who shot Antioch Mayor Lamar Thorpe with a projectile during protests following the 2020 police murder of George Floyd. Other messages contained racist and homophobic slurs. The East Bay Times first reported on the text messages, which the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office published last month in a 21-page report.
