A former Pacific Grove police officer has filed a lawsuit against the city.
In January 2021, Pacific Grove Police Department officer Michael Gonzalez was dismissed after he posted anti-Black Lives Matter comments on his social media account.
"It was brought to the attention of the Pacific Grove police department that an officer/employee of the Pacific Grove Police Department may have been posting disparaging remarks against Black Lives Matter movement on his Parler account. This officer is the same officer that had controversial decals affixed to his vehicle reported to the city in the May of 2020," said Chief Cathy Madalone in November of 2021.
On Feb. 22, Gonzalez filed a complaint against the city for allegedly violating his first amendment rights. His complaint includes the city of Pacific Grove, Police Chief Cathy Madalone, and City Manager Ben Harvey.
The city council will review the complaint during its closed session agenda during its March 2 meeting.

Police Chief Cathy Madalone.
I think I see the problem right now.
More like Madattheworld.....
Police chiefs are invariably diverse.
The racist rat party just lost another one million Mexican voters.
Apparently, police and other first responders aren’t allowed private opinions of any kind unless they toe the line.
But it goes to show you that even the liberals are monitoring the more conservative platforms.
