Over the past decade, the Oakland Police Department has faced numerous disciplinary actions, including cases of officer misconduct, leadership failures, and systemic issues. Notable incidents involve officers engaging in hit-and-run accidents, unreported firearm discharges, and allegations of bribery and perjury. The department has undergone multiple leadership changes, with several chiefs being terminated or resigning amid controversies. Federal oversight has been extended multiple times due to these persistent issues, reflecting ongoing challenges in achieving lasting reform and accountability.
