Officials, law enforcement decry use of racial slur during police transparency meeting
A Zoom meeting about police transparency on Friday afternoon was disrupted by an attendee who used a racial slur, prompting officials to publicly condemn him.
Around 4 p.m. during the meeting, someone twice messaged panelists with racist slurs, and was immediately ejected from the meeting, according to a press release about the disruption.
Minutes later, a man was given the chance to provide public comment and used it to say a racial slur. After about 15 seconds of silence, a moderator announced he had been removed from the webinar. After several others spoke, another man during public comment used the same slur and was also removed.
It's unclear if the same person was responsible for the three instances. The person or people were not immediately identified.
