The President of the New Haven Police Union said that news that the city’s police chief, Dean Esserman, has been put on paid leave after another outburst is disheartening. This follows reports he allegedly berated a waitress at a local restaurant.
This is the second time Esserman has been reprimanded by the city’s mayor for his conduct in public. In 2014, he reportedly berated a volunteer usher at a Yale football game.
