Nine current or former police officers from Antioch and Pittsburg, California, have been indicted on federal charges related to civil rights violations, fraud, wire fraud, deprivation of rights under color of law, conspiracy against rights, and conspiracy to distribute anabolic steroids. Three of the officers are also accused of exchanging racist and derogatory text messages, and the indictments allege that the officers sought to get a pay raise by committing fraud and that they lied on reports to cover up the use of excessive force. The U.S. Attorney’s Office is urging anyone with information about the case to contact the FBI.
