The Antioch Police Oversight Commission voted 6-0 to recommend the removal of Commissioner Treva Hadden due to her excessive unexcused absences from meetings. Having missed more than three meetings in a year, the vote places her status in the hands of the Antioch City Council. Hadden was appointed for a three-year term in February 2024 and is currently an ethics investigator in Oakland. If removed, she will be the second commissioner this year to leave before completing her term, following Leslie May's resignation.
Oversight, to be meaningful, must be both independent and trustworthy, Bana said. If these concerns are unfounded, then an independent investigation will validate the commission and restore confidence.
Kennedy's alleged incident resulted in his wife needing stitches, raising serious concerns about domestic assault, while Aiello faces federal charges linked to child pornography.
