Brandon Beak and the 2007 Inglewood Police Scandal.

Informative Report: The Fragmented Accountability of Brandon BeakBrandon Beak’s history presents a complex picture of professional misconduct followed by allegations of institutional protection and recent personal legal turmoil. Due to documented efforts by the Inglewood Police Department (IPD) to destroy records, obtaining a unified, "whole" view of Beak's actions and accountability—bridging the gap between his professional termination and his current status—is fundamentally obscured.1. The Facts of Professional Misconduct and TerminationBrandon Beak was an officer with the Inglewood Police Department whose professional career ended due to a massive internal affairs investigation into sexual misconduct.The Firing (March 2007):• Context: Beak was terminated in March 2007 alongside six other officers, as part of a "purge". This action occurred during one of the most tumultuous periods in the IPD’s history, characterized by systemic misconduct and excessive force incidents.• Allegations: The internal investigation focused on allegations that department employees had sex with female employees at massage parlors, or were "covering for colleagues who engaged in such activities". The actions were tied to California Penal Code sections concerning prostitution and solicitation, including soliciting an act of prostitution (PC 647(b)), pimping (PC 266h), and pandering (PC 266i).• Preceding Incident: Prior to his firing, in December 2006, Beak was involved in an incident with Officer Donvey Lindsey where they followed a woman suspected of prostitution, contributing to the behavioral pattern that led to the investigation.• Official Standing: Beak’s termination appears to have been administrative, as there is no evidence of criminal charges arising from the incident. However, he appears on the Brady List for the Inglewood Police Department, which tracks officers whose credibility issues could impact criminal cases.2. Conflicting Information Regarding Rehire StatusDespite being formally terminated in 2007, the record contains conflicting information regarding Beak's employment status afterward, which highlights the departmental chaos and lack of clarity:• Official Status: Multiple documents refer to Brandon Beak as a former IPD officer who was terminated in March 2007.• Contradictory Claim: One source explicitly states that he was fired and then hired back. This source claims that he still works there. The individual making this claim also describes the police department as "extremely corrupt" and alleges that they rehired him and destroyed the files.Specific details about Beak's activities or status after 2007 are not widely documented in public records. The investigative reports concluded that attempts to locate a confirmed online presence for the former officer were unsuccessful, noting that a social media profile with his name in Toronto was conclusively ruled out as belonging to an unrelated individual.3. Current Personal Legal Issues: Double Life and PolygamyWhile Beak has maintained a low public profile since 2007, confirmed facts reveal he is involved in serious legal and personal proceedings, demonstrating a pattern of significant ethical breaches extending beyond his police work.• Marital Status and Double Life: A confirmed fact about Brandon Beak is that he was living a complete double life.• Polygamy Allegations: He was married, and then subsequently married the friend of the person who provided this information.• Current Litigation: As a result of this double life, his wife is divorcing him after a friend of hers discovered "crazy things".
