LMPD officer awarded $450K in whistleblower suit against Metro Government

Good luck at your next department, Chief

Only corruption I have ever seen from this Department comes from the front office. The command gives us a bad name. It's embarrassing and pathetic.

I think the FOP should give a vote of no confidence in Conrad... I am MEGA disappointed.

I don't have $450,000 and I could do a lot with that kind of money, but that is such a paltry amount for such a case. I was expecting something in the neighborhood of 3 million or more. I think Metro Government got the last laugh.

Look llike retaliation cost the city some serious cash. Guess the command never learns.

According to the contract detective is not a rank. It is the same as officer and you can be moved at anytime for the good of the department. The city should appeal and they will win. If they don't then they better get ready to start testing for the position of detective!

Cost to the tax payers is 450,000 and nobody get fired, prosecuted or even demoted. If you are command then there is zero accountability.

REMEMBER THIS?

The Louisville metro police department is facing another lawsuit tonight, this time from two of its own officers.

The two officers claim the department mishandled a sexual harassment complaint and retaliated against a sergeant who stuck up for a fellow officer.

This story revolves around the way the Louisville police department handled a sexual harassment complaint filed against Major Jimmy Harper by his ex-wife, a fellow officer.

Major Jimmy Harper has been the commander of the metro police department's 6th district. Yesterday he got some good news. An internal investigation cleared him of a sexual harassment complaint filed against him by his ex-wife and fellow officer, Debbi Minniear.

So the police department clearing major Harper won't be the end of the story. Today, his ex-wife and her commander sergeant David burns, filed a lawsuit against Harper and the police department.

What's the big deal? Just frat boys being boys. They'll do it all again, money ain't a thing!

Entry level position in patrol? Performing at a high level then demoted. So patrol is for new guys and retards I guess. WTH. Patrol is the back bone of any department. Just sounds alittle BS to me.
