"These are police officers that are supposed to protect the community, but they attack their own," said Brad Gage, an attorney representing the six Pasadena officers and former supervisors.
"At the crux of the lawsuits are two cop gangs alleged to control the Pasadena Police Department. One is dubbed the GOBC, or Good Ole Boys Club, and the other is known as the Veteranos, which consists of officers who have been involved in a police shooting."
"If there is racism, retaliation and violence within the Police Department, it can certainly bleed over into the community," said Gordon, a department supervisor who retired in April.
