During the application process Shafer misrepresented the number of times law enforcement had contacted him during the lawful course of their duties. He reported that he had been contacted twice by the Brier Police Department. A search of a law enforcement data base showed 20 contacts. Shafer also failed to disclose an incident he was involved with that had been investigated by Everett PD. In this instance Shafer caused a disturbance at a bank when he attempted to do business while violating COVID protocols. During this incident, according to witnesses, he threatened the security officer and advised that he was an officer, as an intimidation tactic during the incident. Pursuant to RPD Policy 900.32 Integrity Any material misstatement of fact or significant admission during the application or background process shall be disqualifying, including inconsistent statements made during the initial background interview or polygraph examination or discrepancies between this background investigation and other investigations conducted by other law enforcement agencies. Due to these acts and omissions on Shafer’s part, I believe he lacks the moral integrity to perform the duties of a Renton Police Officer. I request that Shafer be removed for cause from the Police Commissioned Eligibility Entry Level hiring list.
