Thanks for the thoughts, guys. I believe I was the first casualty of the new chief's regime. I was an easy target to become an example. Punishing me for wanting to stay a cop illustrating that he will tolerate nothing. The agency of approximately sixty-three officers is now the supposedly the smallest agency in the state with an officer assigned fulltime to internal affairs. Last year, investigations resulted in eight administrative hearing boards. This is apart of other discipline that is not contested or does not rise to the level that allows an AHB.
Ironically enough, this comes from a chief who was demoted from inspector to captain, testified in a manner a federal judge found incredulous, and unsuccessfully sued his former chief for sexual discrimination. He could issue me retirement credentials, but will not.
