Stumbling upon the Copwatch website researching police activity in and around Sacramento I emailed Josh Cadji about some cop problems I had been having in Folsom. He suggested I file a complaint, assuming enough of these will lead to a review of the police officer. I didn’t, it sounded futile. Police officers undo themselves by going over the cliff, getting drunk and fighting in public, crashing their cars high on barbiturates into a Starbucks at 9 am, or funneling raunchy pornographic films of children to some freakish online perverts. Turns out Cadji started Sacramento Copwatch a couple months ago in August and is trying to get the word out enough to get “shifts” going on in Sacramento

If it wasn't a serious situation, it would have been almost humorous today as a Sacramento Police Department motor officer stopped Jaywalkers left and right at the railroad crossing on Broadway between 19th and 20th Streets.

According to the California Vehicle Code, "Between adjacent intersections controlled by traffic control signal devices or by police officers, pedestrians shall not cross the roadway at any place except in a crosswalk." The citing officer stated that fine
