Wiemiller Returns to Challenge La Blue | Fresno News

Fresno police sergeant Brandon Wiemiller is running for president of the Fresno Police Officers Association again, aiming to unseat current leader Jeff La Blue—who’s under city investigation for sexual harassment allegations. Wiemiller stepped down from his previous two terms to return to patrol work but says union members urged him to run after feeling neglected. La Blue, who settled a prior lawsuit with an undisclosed sum, now faces scrutiny over alleged union surveillance practices and timing that Wiemiller claims may be politically motivated. The city denies retaliation, saying the investigation began in February and is routine personnel oversight. The probe is expected to conclude in 60-90 days, as the union braces for a leadership shake-up amid mounting pressure.
