Evansville Police Commission Update: Re; Sgt. Fitters; Opening Statements and Evidence to begin MONDAY Jan. 16th 8:30AM

The opening statements and first evidence in the police commission hearing re. Sgt. Fitters will begin on Jan. 16th at 8:30AM. Both sides have promised to keep their opening remarks to 10 minutes flat.

Initially there were two actions, one by the city and one by the plaintiff. These two have been consolidated into one by the city and plaintiff has agreed to it "with prejudice" meaning she cannot file another action at a later date but will abide by the result of the one action.

In addition to plaintiff and defendant having counsel, the police commission is being represented by counsel, Mr. Krohn.

Next update on the Observer will be on January 16th.

(ed note. The Observer will remain in quiet mode on this matter during the course of the disciplinary process. The comment line will be closed.)
