More than 300 undercover Los Angeles police officers filed claims after their names and photographs were posted online by a technology watchdog group.
LOS ANGELES — More than 300 undercover Los Angeles police officers filed legal claims against the city and police department Tuesday afterThe watchdog group Stop LAPD Spying Coalition posted more than 9,300 officers’ information and photographs last month in a searchable online database following a public records request by a reporter for progressive news outlet Knock LA.
The Stop LAPD Spying Coalition opposes police intelligence-gathering and says the database should be used for “countersurveillance.” McNicholas said his clients fear for their safety — as well as that of their families — and want to know whether the city will provide protection for them. He said he’s aware of several investigations involving undercover officers, such as cases into gangs, drugs and sex traffickers, that have been stopped in the wake of the disclosure. He would not provide additional details.
