There some new developments in the unfolding story of alleged misuse of a confidential law enforcement database by members of the Kern High School Police Department and administration. Last week KHSD Police Chief Joe Lopeteguy, who is now on leave from his position, filed a lawsuit against the district. In it he claims that the district retaliated against him for acting as a whistleblower by exposing the district’s alleged misuse of the system to investigate students and employees. Bakersfield Californian reporter Harold Pierce broke the story and joined us on Valley Edition to talk about the latest developments.
