The Selma Police Officers Association accused Mayor Scott Robertson of disrespectfully using the image of Gonzalo Carrasco Sr. in political ads, raising significant controversy.
Carrasco Sr. expressed his discomfort in a letter stating he was unaware that his emotional moment would be used for political purposes, feeling misled.
Robertson maintains he sought permission from Carrasco Sr. for the political ad, insisting he aimed to honor the fallen officer rather than exploit the family's grief.
The mayor criticized the police union's motives, suggesting they were politicizing the issue to undermine his campaign, which he feels is an attack on his integrity.
