Outrage over Multnomah County River Patrol legitimacy questioned
During a recent government meeting, a heated discussion emerged regarding the role of the Multnomah County River Patrol in local law enforcement agreements. A speaker expressed strong opposition to the River Patrol, labeling it an \"illegitimate department\" that fails to uphold its mission of community protection. The speaker called for the department's abolition and criticized its involvement in patrolling waterways.

The speaker also directed sharp criticism at Gresham Police Chief Gullwing, accusing him of misconduct and demanding his resignation. Allegations were made regarding past incidents at Columbia River Marina, where the speaker claimed there were cover-ups involving local officials, including Chair Kafoury, who is now on the Portland School Board. The speaker asserted that Kafoury misled the public about resolving issues related to the marina and should not be in a position to handle complaints involving children.

The meeting concluded with a call for questions and comments from the board, indicating that the discussions surrounding the River Patrol and the allegations against local officials are likely to continue.
