An attorney who represents Oakland police officers is working to find out who leaked medical information about a police trainee, and said Wednesday that he plans to take legal action against the city over what happened.

The statements from attorney Michael Rains came on the heels of a KGO-Channel 7 television report Tuesday night that questioned whether Scott Valladon, the son of Oakland Police Officers Association President Bob Valladon, was given preferential treatment when he landed a spot in an ongoing police academy.
