Daniel Auderer – Seattle Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In January 2023, Officer Auderer was recorded making insensitive comments and laughing about the death of 23-year-old Jaahnavi Kandula, who was struck and killed by a police cruiser. He referred to her as ‘a regular person’ and stated, ‘she had limited value.’ Following an investigation, Auderer was terminated in July 2024 for unprofessional conduct. In August 2024, he filed a $20 million tort claim against the city, alleging wrongful termination and harm to his reputation.

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.
