Ali Dizaei was known for being the voice of people in the minority due to race, religion, etc.

Ali Dizaei made it to the news headlines several times to question how things worked in the department. He raised the issue of racial discrimination within the department. This outspoken personality got him elected as the President of the National Black Police Association in 2008. However, his efforts were not well received by a few people in the department.

Ali Dizaei faced backlash from the department as he was convicted for several charges. The department started an investigation against him, and he was suspended from his job with full pay. He was jailed for four years, but his wife helped with the case and found information that reduced his sentence.
