No one has actually established that the officer is racist, or at least to the extent that it would impact his job performance. You can make a lot of assumptions about what he believes or how he might treat people, but we don't actually know.

Edit to add quote from article: Tuma said a review of Henderson's record showed no pattern of bias or misconduct against minorities.

"There were no concerns whatsoever that he was engaged in any profiling or any biased treatment of any minority," he said.
