This concerns the State of California.

Recently, a citizen published a video showing numerous officers assaulting an unarmed man they were arresting. I asked the PD if the officers had been placed on paid administrative leave. He said that information was a personnel matter and, therefore, confidential.

Is this correct? Where would I look for this law?

Thank you.
Yes, it IS correct as L-1 has provided.

I am curious about this video. One man's "assault" is another man's "justified use of force." All because YOU might think it to be assault does not mean it was. And video too often fails to show the whole story or the context of the event - hence the problem of relying solely on video to render a judgement.
