Union Leader Under Fire Over Timing | Fresno News

Fresno Police union chief Sgt. Jeff La Blue is under city investigation just months after settling a $2 million sexual harassment lawsuit — and the union says it’s all a setup to derail his leadership election. The city waited nearly six months to launch the probe, which they claim stems from union employee complaints, not police misconduct. La Blue and his team accuse the city of retaliation, warning it’s an attempt to sway union votes ahead of September elections. With a third-party investigator handling the case — and potential penalties ranging from a warning to termination — the union vows to fight back, even filing a complaint over what they call unfair labor practices.
