There is correspondence with Matt about the memo in his social media accounts on October 14. I know this because I told him I had the memo and was working on a story. Those accounts were read by the Ukiah Police Department. Maybe it's just a coincidence but it was time for me to stop sitting on the story. There will be more to come.
The $450,000 settlement did not involve a former Ukiah Police Chief.
Also the P in POST stands for Peace, not Police.
Thank you! Robot factcheckers are not as good as human factcheckers. I have fixed Post. Here is a linnk to the settlement with former Ukiah Police Chief Nobel Waidelich https://kymkemp.com/2025/10/06/ukiah-quietly-pays-450k-in-suit-alleging-ex-chiefs-sexual-assault/ ... the link I added to Kym Kemp's site was wrong.
Ah, thanks, now that he correct link has been posted I see there was also a settlement involving a former chief 🤯
Great shoe leather reporting. Keep up the heat, Elise.
Amazing coincidence. Almost too amazing.
