Carrie Candler – Gilbert Police Department

Written by CBKN76

Commander Carrie Candler, the only sworn female commander in the department, was terminated in April 2020. She filed a lawsuit alleging wrongful termination, claiming she was fired after complaining about discrimination and unfair treatment based on her gender. The lawsuit detailed a toxic work environment for women and alleged that male officers and union leaders undermined her authority. The case was ongoing as of April 2021, with the Town of Gilbert denying the allegations and seeking dismissal of the suit.

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.
