Earl Stanley – Ansonia Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In 2001, Officer Earl Stanley was arrested and charged with fourth-degree sexual assault following complaints from multiple women alleging sexual harassment and misconduct, some incidents occurring while on duty. An internal affairs investigation found that Stanley used his position to influence and intimidate victims, violating public trust. Despite procedural violations in the disciplinary process, the court ultimately denied his reinstatement, citing a clear public policy against sexual harassment and misconduct by police officers.
