The city of Vallejo and the California Department of Justice have entered into a settlement agreement that both parties hope is the final plan for oversight of the city's embattled Police Department.
Bonta decided to withdraw that agreement and will instead now work with the independent oversight firm Jensen Hughes instead of the court. 'The settlement agreement with the city of Vallejo and its police department demonstrates commitment to correcting injustices, building trust, and enhancing public safety for the people of Vallejo, by allowing the reforms decided upon in our October 2023 stipulated judgment to move forward immediately, irrespective of court approval,' said Bonta.
