SACRAMENTO, Calif. The California Association of Code Enforcement Officers says threats towards officers are on the rise across the state since the implementation of COVID-19 regulations.
The increase in threats caused the organization to send out a letter to members, saying in part:
“..[the organization] condemns all threats and vitriolic actions directed towards our members and is embarking on a campaign to ensure this trend is addressed. We are also taking steps to ensure that those who threaten code enforcement officers, whether from behind a keyboard or otherwise, are identified and held accountable for their actions.”
