Oakland Police Officer Charged for Database Misuse

0:00An Oakland police officer just got hit with two misdemeanor charges for allegedly dipping into a restricted law enforcement database for the wrong reasons. 25-year-old Diamond Surby and faces counts of computer access and fraud from searches she supposedly ran last year, one on April 30 and another between June 19th and July 2nd. She joined the force right after finishing Oakland's police academy in August 2022, but details on who she looked up or why or staying. Under wraps in the court docs, no arrest so far. She got a notice for an April 27 court date and she's still out free. This case shines a light on how tight those systems need to be and will keep watching as it heads the court.
