A dashcam and a body camera reportedly recorded Cincinnati police officer Rose Valentino using a racial slur during an incident in April.
“Officer Valentino’s agitated demeanor and the statement she made while on duty is not only inexcusable and incredibly hurtful, but it damages the public’s trust we have worked so hard to build over the past 20 years,” interim Chief Teresa Theetge said in a statement,“Officer Valentino’s clear loss of her emotions and ready use of the racial slur tarnished her ability to work with any community member or member of the Cincinnati Police Department hurt by her hateful words,” Theetge said.
Valentino reportedly turned on the lights and siren on her patrol car in an attempt to get the cars to move. She also rolled down the window of her vehicle and told drivers to move, resulting in a male student making an obscene gesture toward her, reports say. WCPO reports Dan Hils, president of the Fraternal Order of Police, said the union will represent Valentino if she chooses to appeal her firing.
