Chief Dale Walters faced scrutiny for the department’s handling of the tasering incident involving Memory Burns in 2020. An internal investigation found policy violations and deficiencies, including the use of force and lack of communication. Walters acknowledged the department ‘missed the mark’ and implemented additional training and corrective actions. The incident led to a $5 million legal claim against the City of Globe, alleging negligence, assault and battery, false arrest, false imprisonment, and civil rights violations.
