The department says it initiated an internal audit of background checks and psychological exams for those hired since January 2016, and nearly four dozen deputies did not pass.
The Alameda County Sheriff’s Office has stripped 47 deputies of their firearms and peace officer duties after an internal audit revealed they were never qualified to be hired because they had failed their psychological evaluations, authorities said.
“As a result of this audit, it was learned that the result of your psychological examination was listed by the psychologist who performed your evaluation as ‘D. Not Suited,’” the letter reads. “A great deal of research, and current advice from both POST [Police Officer Standards and Training] and County Counsel has confirmed that any candidate who is evaluated as ‘D. Not Suited’ cannot serve as a peace officer in the state of California.
Kelly said deputies required to re-test would now need a C- grade to pass their evaluations and be returned to duty.that the grading guidelines for POST-certified psychological exams have never changed. She said letter grades — such as C’s or D’s — are not used to determine results of POST-certified psychological evaluations.
