The San Antonio Police Department has indefinitely suspended one of its officers, Emilio J. De La Rosa, over allegations he made inappropriate workplace comments about women and Blacks on the force and engaged in “conduct prejudicial to good order,” disciplinary records show. SAPD records accuse De Le Rosa of unleashing string of potentially offensive remarks in front of coworkers, including a statement one took as sexual harassment and comments disparaging Black and women officers on his team as “diversity hires.” De La Rosa’s suspension — tantamount to a firing — became effective June 24, signed paperwork shows.
