Portland’s Rapid Response Team: Officers can’t serve on team under ‘the extreme liability’ they face
The commander of Portland’s Rapid Response Team had called a meeting of the specialized unit’s approximately 50 officers at the Penumbra Kelly Building in Southeast Portland Wednesday night to hear their concerns.
Just over two hours later, all the officers present voted to resign from the specialized crowd control team.
They cited a host of factors: a lack of clear direction from the chief’s office, changing interpretations of police force directives and policies, officer safety concerns and what they called inconsistent internal reviews of officers’ actions.
Though the team members are hopeful that some of these issues can be resolved, they believe the problems have become “so severe, they cannot continue to serve on the team under the extreme liability they are currently facing,” wrote Lt. Jacob Clark, commander of the Rapid Response Team, in a memo to Police Chief Chuck Lovell Thursday morning obtained by The Oregonian/OregonLive.
The unprecedented move by about 50 officers, detectives and sergeants to disband their own team came a day after a team member, Officer Corey Budworth, was indicted on a fourth-degree assault charge, accused of striking a woman in the head with a baton who he’d already knocked to the ground during a protest last summer near the Multnomah Building.
