Gates insists
he will stay,
. rebuild. LAPD
By The Associated Press
Los Angeles Police
Chief Daryl F. Gates has·
taped a video in which he
vows to punish all officers
involved in the relentless
beating of a black motorist
and assures that his faith
in the Police Department
• remains unshaken.
Gates made his com-
~ments on a 15-minute videotape
first shown to officers
during roll calls
Friday. The tape will be
shown to the entire department.
On his video, Gates ·said
he would not step down.
"It'd be easy for me to
pack up and go away," he
said. "But I didn't put 42
years into this job to see it
blow up in smoke. I'm not
going to resign. I'm going
to be here to niake sure
that what I say is done."
State and federal authorities
launched investigations
into the beating.
