San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo is calling for an investigation into racist comments allegedly made by officers on social media.

He says those comments were made in a closed Facebook group by current and former SJPD officers.

“I demand and expect a full investigation, and further expect that racist, anti-Muslim or menacing comments expressed by any current SJPD Officer will be met with termination,” Liccardo said in a statement.

Police Chief Eddie Garcia also weighed in.

"While I have no control over what former employees post online, I can voice my outrage after hearing about these comments made online,” he said. “Any current employee involved with bigoted activity online will promptly be investigated and held accountable to the fullest extent in my power. We have no place for this.”
