«Breaking News» Beverly Hills police chief is accused of anti-Semitism and misconduct

A California police chief has been accused of racism and anti-Semitism by dozens of department workers, launching an ugly and very expensive lawsuit. 

The city of Beverly Hills agreed to pay a whopping $2.3million to settle a lawsuit  against Chief Sandra Spagnoli for her anti-Semitic and offense remarks. 

The lawsuit was launched by Captain Mark Rosen, who is Jewish, and accused Spanoli of harassment and workplace misconduct. He claims that he was denied promotions on account of his religion. 

And he's not the only one to make such accusations. 

In the last two years, at least 21 current and former employees filed lawsuits or employment complaints against Chief Spagnoli for making racist and anti-Semitic comments, denying workers promotions, and engaging in sexual affairs with subordinate officers, according to Los Angeles Times.   

The city of Beverly Hills paid Captain Mark Rosen, who is Jewish, a $2.3million settlement after he sued Police Chief Sandra Spagnoli for making anti-Semitic comments and refusing him promotions because he's Jewish on November 30

One filing said the number of complaints could rise to 30. As there are about 245 employees in the department, that would mean nearly 10 per cent of the department would have complained about Spagnoli.  

The settlement was announced on November 30 and Rosen spoke in a press conference afterwards saying he felt vindicated but worried for the department. He retired after the settlement.

'I am concerned for my coworkers I am leaving behind the officers and civilians alike who continue to be victimized,' he said.  

Chief Spagnoli was hired in 2016 and became the glittering face of the Beverly Hills Police Department. 

She was admired by the city's mayor and council members and was even praised in Vogue magazine. 

She described herself as a 'change agent' and was known for her aggressive reforms. 

However, she's landed in hot water for her comments. She's accused of referring to yarmulkes worn by observant Jews as 'funny little hats'.

Another account says asked if she had to 'dress Mexican' when she was invited to a meal at a Latino employee's home. 

Another accusation says she acted revolted when she was told that an employee was gay. 

Spagnoli has also been accused of having sex with subordinate officers in her department and later handed them promotions, according to court documents.   

She has denied the sexual allegations and said that she was 'not racist'.  

Spagnoli spoke publicly denying the allegations, calling them a 'smear campaign' by her unhappy employees who dislike her reforms, according to the LA Times.

'I’m disappointed at some of the personal attacks against me, particularly because I can tell you I love this community. I love being a key factor in public safety and making a difference,' she said. 

'For the most part, all of our employees are a tremendous asset to the city. It hasn’t been easy running the department while under fire from different directions,' she added.

Beverly Hills Mayor Julian Gold also came to her defense. 

'Sometimes people take offense at things that were not meant to be offensive. I have no idea, I could only speculate,' Gold said on her allegations. 

'Of all the allegations, that is the one you really have to raise your eyebrow at. In the first place, we have 11 elected officials — five on the school board, five on the City Council and the city treasurer. They are all Jewish. The notion she made anti-Semitic comments in that sort of environment does not make any sense,' he added. 

Beverly Hills announced the $2.3million settlement after the city's insurance company advised it, leading Rosen to retire that same day. 

'I submit to you an insurance company isn’t going to pay $2.3 million unless it believes we have demonstrated a very strong case,' attorney Brad Gage, who represents several people who have made claims against Spagnoli, said. 

The city's attorney office hired prominent PR specialist Michael Sitrick to help with the department as it's been embroiled in scandal following the lawsuits. 

Sitrick boasts high profile clients like Paris Hilton and Harvey Weinstein.    

Spagnoli is a veteran cop who previously served as the chief of the San Leandro and Benicia police departments in Northern California. 

She appears to still be in her post as police chief with the department. 

The Beverly Hills Police Department has not responded to DailyMail.com's request for comment.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
