The text conversations were recovered from former SFPD Sgt. Ian Furminger's cell phone, according to federal court documents filed March 13, but implicated at least four current SFPD officers, and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/03/18/sfpd-racist-text-scandal-expands-public-defender-seeks-police-reform/\" target=\"_blank\">possibly more\u003c/a>. Furminger was convicted on federal fraud and conspiracy charges and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/02/23/ex-sfpd-sergeant-sentenced-in-federal-corruption-case/\" target=\"_blank\">sentenced to three years and five months\u003c/a> in prison last month. He is appealing his conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A week and a half later, Public Defender Jeff Adachi released a private investigator's preliminary findings that San Francisco sheriffs' deputies at one of the city's jails were \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/03/26/sf-public-defender-sheriffs-deputies-bet-on-forced-battles-between-inmates\" target=\"_blank\">threatening and humiliating inmates and forcing two of them to fight\u003c/a> for entertainment.

We do not know at this point how deeply the problems run within either organization.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adachi said it appears the crime analyst, at least in one case, submitted findings that were helpful to the prosecution, and did not submit findings that would have helped the defense. He said either the state or federal department of justice, and not the district attorney, should investigate the crime lab and police department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don’t like it,\" he said. \"I don’t think law enforcement should be investigating law enforcement. I have less of a problem investigating the problems in the sheriff’s department, but with the DNA crime lab, and the police, these witnesses are relied upon by the district attorney in seeking their convictions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gascón gave scant details about his newly created task force, declining to state even the number of people assigned. He said he would seek funding from the city's Board of Supervisors to pay for the investigations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I invite members of the public and members of law enforcement to provide information to this office concerning any of these cases or any other allegations of misconduct involving law enforcement personnel in our county,\" Gascón said. \"San Francisco will have no tolerance for bad behavior or criminal behavior within our law enforcement community, and part of that begins with all of us standing tall and ensuring that these cases and any other cases that may be found are handled appropriately. The public deserves this and I will make sure that we do so.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

The text conversations were recovered from former SFPD Sgt. Ian Furminger's cell phone, according to federal court documents filed March 13, but implicated at least four current SFPD officers, and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/03/18/sfpd-racist-text-scandal-expands-public-defender-seeks-police-reform/\" target=\"_blank\">possibly more\u003c/a>.

He is appealing his conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A week and a half later, Public Defender Jeff Adachi released a private investigator's preliminary findings that San Francisco sheriffs' deputies at one of the city's jails were \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/03/26/sf-public-defender-sheriffs-deputies-bet-on-forced-battles-between-inmates\" target=\"_blank\">threatening and humiliating inmates and forcing two of them to fight\u003c/a> for entertainment.

He said either the state or federal department of justice, and not the district attorney, should investigate the crime lab and police department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don’t like it,\" he said. \"I don’t think law enforcement should be investigating law enforcement. I have less of a problem investigating the problems in the sheriff’s department, but with the DNA crime lab, and the police, these witnesses are relied upon by the district attorney in seeking their convictions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gascón gave scant details about his newly created task force, declining to state even the number of people assigned. He said he would seek funding from the city's Board of Supervisors to pay for the investigations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I invite members of the public and members of law enforcement to provide information to this office concerning any of these cases or any other allegations of misconduct involving law enforcement personnel in our county,\" Gascón said. \"San Francisco will have no tolerance for bad behavior or criminal behavior within our law enforcement community, and part of that begins with all of us standing tall and ensuring that these cases and any other cases that may be found are handled appropriately. The public deserves this and I will make sure that we do so.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
