Andrew Hartwig – Wausau Police Department

Former Lieutenant Andrew Hartwig resigned in 2019 following an internal investigation that found he violated department policy regarding sexual harassment. Allegations included grabbing a female officer’s breast during a bullet-proof vest fitting, making inappropriate comments about breastfeeding at work, and inquiring about an officer’s sex life. Hartwig denied some allegations but admitted to using language and topics that violated department policy. He was placed on administrative leave and later resigned, receiving a final payout of nearly $12,000, mostly for unused vacation time and administrative paid leave.
