Real World Police | Sacramento gang unit detective terminated for dishonesty @RealWorldPolice | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 2 days ago
There is something important to know about this video. Until very recently, nearly all police disciplinary records were secret in California. That has changed, but only to the extent that misconduct is sustained and falls into one of two categories: sexual misconduct and dishonesty. Everything else is still secret. Without the dishonesty element, this entire incident would be confidential. You wouldn't know about it. You're not entitled to records about it. If you live in California, your legislature can change that. Vote.
The following is excerpted from the internal affairs investigation of Glen Barawed. The full 480-page disciplinary file, including the arbitrator's decision upholding Deputy Barawed's termination is available for free on Patreon.
Deputy Glen Barawed is assigned to Centralized Investigations Division (CID) - Gang Suppression Unit. On September 19, 2019, at approximately 0620 hours, Deputy Barawed called Sergeant Prehoda via his cell phone to report he had been involved in a vehicle accident involving his home retention county vehicle. Deputy Barawed told Sergeant Prehoda he was on Haussman Street and Laguna Blvd in the City of Elk Grove.
Deputy Barawed told Sergeant Prehoda he was not injured and that he had hit a curb. Upon Sergeant Prehoda arriving at Haussman St and Laguna Blvd, he immediately noticed major damage to the front of Deputy Barawed's county vehicle. The damage did not appear consistent with striking a curb. Deputy Barawed told Sergeant Prehoda the accident occurred on Cosumnes River Boulevard near Delta Shores in the City of Sacramento. Deputy Barawed was with his father who resided close by and had arrived at the Haussman Street location prior to Sergeant Prehoda arriving on scene.
Sergeant Prehoda admitted he did not smell or observe any signs of Barawed being under the influence of alcohol. Deputy Barawed had already requested a tow truck via the communication center. Sergeant Prehoda made arrangements with a CSI officer to stand by at the Haussman location for the tow truck.
Deputy Barawed's father drove Deputy Barawed, followed by Sergeant Prehoda to the area of Cosumnes River Blvd and Delta Shores Circle near I-5. Sergeant Prehoda and Deputy Barawed located the collision scene on Cosumnes River Blvd east of Delta Shores Cir S, approximately 5.5 miles from where Deputy Barawed's vehicle was parked on Haussman in Elk Grove. Sergeant Prehoda and Deputy Barawed identified the area where Barawed left the roadway, causing damage to an electrical box and knocking down two trees.
At approximately 0800 hours Sacramento Police Officer Kelly arrived on scene to handle the traffic collision. Officer Kelly's interaction with Deputy Barawed was recorded on Officer Kelly's body worn camera. On several occasions during their contact, Deputy Barawed stated he had struck the curb around 0600 or 0615 hours.
The facts of the case demonstrated that Deputy Barawed was repeatedly dishonest with Officer Kelly regarding the time he struck the curb. This in an integral element of the case, as Barawed's dishonesty does not waver and continues on for over two hours while at the location of the accident.
Barawed also stated after looking down to reach for his phone he did not realize he hit the electrical box or the trees and believed he had only struck the curb, which is why he continued driving.
During Officer Kelly's contact with Barawed he did not smell or observe any signs or symptoms of Barawed being under the influence of alcohol. At approximately 0953, hours Deputy Barawed consented to a PAS test. Prior to completing the PAS test, Deputy Barawed admitted to having "three tall cans of PBR beer" the night prior at 10:00pm or 11:00pm. Prior to this admission, Barawed had denied having had any alcohol.
Deputy Barawed's PAS results were .046 and .047. These results are another key component to the case corroborating his dishonesty with Officer Kelley regarding the actual time of the accident.
During Deputy Barawed's interview with Professional Standards Bureau (PSB) Sergeants Takahashi and Kloss, he stated he was having marital problems and he parked his county vehicle in our county garage and walked to a bar. After having two pint sized beers, he returned to our garage and drove to another bar. Deputy Barawed could not recall what time he arrived at The Trap or what time he left The Trap. Sometime thereafter, Deputy Barawed recalls striking the curb on Cosumnes River Boulevard after looking down for his phone.
Unbeknownst to Deputy Barawed, the investigation revealed DOT video footage of Deputy Barawed's vehicle traveling east through the intersection of Cosumnes River Blvd and Delta Shores Cir at 0217 hours...
