In a phone call with police union President Mike Solan, Auderer can be heard discussing the crash, stating the speed of the vehicle, and commenting on the value of Kandula's life.

Community leaders and advisory council members have expressed their concerns over the incident, emphasizing the impact such behavior can have on the relationship between the Seattle Police Department and the community. The incident has raised questions about the department's culture and the ongoing efforts to improve race relations.
