Phyllis Washington – San Francisco Sheriff’s Department

Written by CBKN76

Sergeant Phyllis Washington was implicated in a 2020 lawsuit filed by clerks Danielle Dillard and Kim Lee, who accused the department of racial harassment and retaliation. Washington allegedly referred to Dillard as a ‘monkey,’ contributing to a hostile work environment. The jury awarded the plaintiffs over $1 million in damages in November 2023.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
