Dispatch recordings show that Richland school board candidate Misipati Semi Bird called local dispatchers 20 times in a recent 12-month period to report people — juveniles, he presumed — parked near his house, drinking or playing loud music.
He called one group “thugs” and on multiple occasions urged police to issue citations for offenses that included trespassing. In all, four people were cited as a result of his 20 calls. They ranged in age from 15 to 23. All four were Latino.
