EPISODE 1: Officer Pastillas

George at the time was erratic as can be. And this is a guy who's proficient with firearms. Not only on patrol level, this guy worked on SWAT for a little while. You know, he was off the wall at this time. You know, he was really upset with his former co-workers. And I can't imagine he was upset with any of them more than he was with me.

EPISODE 1: Officer Pastillas

You can be a police officer, ask to testify at a grand jury, stick your neck out there, go in there, tell the truth. If I knew this was going to happen, I would have refused to testify. I took a lot of grief over this. It is not... It's not a great place to be where you have to testify against another police officer. Culturally, you keep your mouth shut and that's it.

EPISODE 1: Officer Pastillas

The most upsetting thing was the people who were our leaders during this that let this all ride. I mean, George is one thing, but to have my supervisor have the deputy chief of police... brush these concerns off. A DA's office brushed them off. And then on top of it, I get removed from my position. It was pretty disheartening.

Yeah, I told her, listen, there's a police officer who was involved in criminal activity. I think it's going to get covered up. I'd like somebody to talk to. And that was it.
