Former Oakland police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick is reacting to the latest developments within the department involving Chief LeRonne Armstrong being placed on paid administrative leave.
Kirkpatrick was the chief prior to Armstrong's tenure, she had promoted him to deputy chief and said she was surprised that he was placed on leave.
The former chief spoke with KTVU over Zoom late Friday evening. "That's a significant issue. I don't think any chief in the history of Oakland that I'm aware of was placed on administrative leave. I was not placed on administrative leave," Kirkpatrick said. . Kirkpatrick had previously claimed her ouster was retaliatory and that it was for reporting corruption within that commission. Last year, the city of Oakland agreed to pay Kirkpatrick $1.
