Ticket Scheme Cops Facing Termination?

|

We’re hearing from a number of sources that three officers involved in the phony ticket/false arrest scheme — Senior Corporals Jeff Nelson, Timothy Stecker, and Al Schoelen — are scheduled to be fired today.

Update: Chief Kunkle says the attorney for the three officers and the DPD met yesterday. The attorney for the officers sought injunctive relief, and the two sides have agreed not to proceed further until after a special hearing scheduled for Jan. 8. The officers were, in fact, facing a disciplinary procedure today. According to a separate source, the assistant chief in charge of the matter is/was recommending termination.
