Jeremy Rast – Richland Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In June 2024, Richland Police Officer Jeremy Rast was caught on video telling a group of Hispanic men to “go back to Mexico” and to “get the **** out of Richland.” He was fired for making these derogatory slurs. However, in January 2025, the Pearl Police Department hired Rast despite community outcry. Pearl’s police chief initially defended the decision, but by February 2025 the chief announced Rast did not complete the employment process and was no longer employed in Pearl.

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.
