Day drunk gang cop found 'slumped' in his truck
Seattle Gang Unit Sergeant Jeffrey Page was passed out at a busy intersection in Monroe at 5 pm.
Seattle police sergeant Jeffrey Page was found passed out at a red light in Monroe last fall, according to investigation documents DivestSPD obtained.
On Sept. 25, 2025, at around 5 pm, an Everett police officer on his way to work checked on Page after his truck did not move through “several light cycles.”
Page, a supervisor in the gang unit, was “slumped over” in the driver’s seat. The officer saw an open container of Happy Dad hard seltzer in the center console and a half-empty bottle of Kirkland Signature Vodka in the back seat.
The Everett officer called in the Monroe police because it was their jurisdiction. Page admitted to drinking one beer while golfing three hours before and another afterward. The Monroe officer observed the smell of alcohol and noted Page’s eyes were bloodshot.
Page declined field sobriety tests but submitted to the portable breathalyzer and blew a 0.116. Monroe police arrested Page for DUI physical control.
The DUI charge was dismissed for “evidentiary issues“ after the investigating officer left the department and moved out of state. Page pleaded guilty to misdemeanor negligent driving. The court suspended his sentence for 24 months on the condition that he submit to monitoring, take a DUI class, and undergo an alcohol evaluation.
The Office of Police Accountability completed its investigation in April and sustained all allegations. However, Chief Shon Barnes still has not issued final discipline.
