Chris Powell – Pine Bluff Police Department

Written by CBKN76

Officer Chris Powell, who served as President of the Police Officers Benevolent Association, was fired after an internal investigation concluded that he had sexually harassed and intimidated a young female police recruit named Keyonna Penister. Powell subsequently filed a civil rights lawsuit alleging that he was the victim of race and sex discrimination.

Important Community Guidelines

It is strictly against our rules to:

  • Share private information such as personal emails, home addresses, or phone numbers

Violation of these rules will result in immediate content removal and possible account suspension.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
