The president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors has responded to the report of allegedly using a racial slur against and berating a sheriff's department cadet at a City Hall security checkpoint last month.
, a Black man who represents the city's Bayview District, was admonished by the undersheriff in a memo from June 26 that was obtained by the paper.
In a written statement, Walton said he considers the account by the sheriff's office to be retaliation and that this is not the first time he's been, "mistreated or targeted by this individual." Walton said he's been a proponent of holding law enforcement accountable and has a record of seeking transparency from the department adding, "No other Supervisor has been a thorn in the Sheriff's department side than me."
"I would never expect the Sheriff's Department to provide an accurate account of what transpired between two Black men."Walton said he's complained in the past about the unfair treatment at the security checkpoint and alleges that security protocol was not appropriately followed on the day in question.
