Diep "Tyler' Truong And his Tape Conversation


"It is midnight and I have to deal with this crap" Diep Truong snapped at the watch commander, Sgt. Timothy Vu.

Early Feb of this year, Westminster Councilman Diep Truong was awaken by Amanda My Dung Nguyen, the owner of Citryst Restaurant, 20 minutes after the police did their inspection of Citryst Restaurant for possible violation. The restaurant had violations in the past. The owner complained about the police visit and Diep Truong took it upon himself to ask the police to stop the investigation.

Soon after Diep Truong hung up, Westminster Councilman Andy Quach called Sgt. Vu and demanded to know why he was investigating Citryst.

The full story is reported by the OC Register, http://www.ocregister.com/articles/diep-police-restaurant-2531261-quach-officers, and the Liberal OC Blog, http://www.theliberaloc.com/2009/08/17/westminster-councilman-tyler-diep-unplugged/

It is noteworthy to point out the taped conversation between Diep Truong and the police officer and how Diep realized that he was being recorded. The conversation is included in both reports above

Westminster City Mayor Rice said she was appalled at Diep's behavior toward the police officer that night.
