Re: CALIFORNIA PUBLIC RECORDS ACT REQUEST
Dear Mr. Hennin g:
As per our phone conversation of today, I have requested the following information
on Officer Paul Vernon (LAPD) employment date June 27, 1988.
(1) List of members from the examination oral board for Police Sergeant given to
Officer Paul Vernon.
(2) Interview notes taken at Officer Paul Vernons' oral for Police Sergeant
be made available for review and preserved for investigation.
(3) That the "oral tape" of Officer Paul Vernon for the examination of Police
Sergeant be preserved for possible future investigation.
(4) Ranking-standing of Officer Paul Vernon on the current promotional list for
Police Sergeant (City of Los Angeles)
Disclosure of such documents would not constitute an unwarranted invasion of
personal privacy since they do not include personal information which would
constitute an "invasion" of privacy.
If you determine that any or all of the reque st docum ents or requests are exempt
from disclosure , I request that I be p rovided with a written explanation.
Sincerely,
cc. Police Commission
Los Angeles City Council

Re: Class #468 Problem Control Substance (Health Science Department)
Dear Dr. McCune:
It has come to my attention that Mr. Wilbanks CL.A.P.D. Captain and Division
Commanding Officer) teaches an undergraduate course dealing with substance
abuse and identification leading to a certificate in Drug\Alcohol problems.
I have been informed by student[s] taking this class that Captain Wilbanks'
"Fundamentalist" religious views are also a part of this class. Captain Wilbanks
has used this class as a means in which to "preach" these views and their influence
within the Los Angeles Police Department.
As a former Los Angeles Police Officer, I am not surprised of this situation as the
lack of separation between "Church" and "State" (a Constitutional abuse) exists
within the Los Angeles Police Department.
I, in no way mean to imply that "o nes religious views" or "beliefs " are not
personal and protected as rights 11 as an individual. 11 What is a concern is that
"ones Constitutional rights 11 as to the propriety and legality of this practice should
be maintained in the proper forum.
It should be known that the 11 fundamenta list" views and teachings may not be the
views of those officers servin g within the L.A.P.D. The fact that this has
become a part of this class serves neither students or the community of which any
officer must function.
Sincerely,
encls. Ernest F. Valdez
