Ohio police officer used ‘n-word’ during incident outside school, report finds
CINCINNATI - An internal Cincinnati Police Department investigation concluded an officer used a racial slur following an incident with a teenager believed to be a Cincinnati Public Schools student.
Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval called use of the slur “hateful, angry and racist.” He said “someone demonstrating this behavior has no place in a world-class organization like CPD.” Valentino activated her lights and siren to signal for the cars to move and “became angry when they did not,” the report reads. She allegedly yelled over her air horn, “You got to move, f*****g ridiculous. F*****g a*****s.”
Valentino deactivated her bodycam moments later. Before she deactivated the dashcam, the report notes she can be heard saying quietly, “And there it is...” The report quotes her as telling investigators, “This is a hard job, and I was getting to a point where I was really being affected by it. I have been on for fourteen years.”
