The Los Angeles Police Department says it is investigating whether audio of members of city council making racist comments was recorded illegally.
The 2021 meeting was attended by Martinez, council members Kevin de León and Gil Cedillo, and Ron Herrera, the president of the powerful Los Angeles County Federation of Labor.
"A communication by the individuals that were in the meeting came to the department and asked for an investigation and the assertion that a crime had been committed, that they had been unlawfully and surreptitiously recorded," Moore said."And we’re conducting that investigation.". A spokesperson for the labor federation said that he no longer works for the organization and that the current leadership did not make the request.
Martinez, Cedillo, de León and Herrera are Latino Democrats. Martinez also at one point is heard saying of Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón, in part, “he’s with the Blacks.”
