A former Rohnert Park police sergeant is testifying against former officer Joseph Huffaker.
Brendan “Jacy” Tatum took the witness stand in Huffaker’s federal criminal trial on Tuesday. Tatum, who was Huffaker’s commander, says he and a fellow officer impersonated federal agents, pulled over unsuspecting drivers along Highway 101, and stole their cash and cannabis.
Tatum was the leader of Rohnert Park’s drug interdiction team, which has since been disbanded. He pleaded guilty to federal charges in 2021.
