The Oakland Police Officers' Association condemned the city's request for repayment, labeling it ‘inhuman, outrageous, disgraceful, heartless and unconscionable,’ reflecting strong community sentiment.
In a statement, city officials expressed their support for Officer Le's family, acknowledging the distress caused and confirming that no further action is required regarding the salary repayment.
Le's death was a significant tragedy for the Oakland community, marking a long-awaited incident—the first fatal shooting of an on-duty officer in nearly 15 years.
The overpayments to Officer Le and others stemmed from a severe ransomware attack affecting city financial systems, resulting in payroll irregularities for the city's employees.
