In August 2020, Officer Anthony Griffin engaged in sexually explicit text exchanges with a woman involved in a domestic violence incident he was investigating. He assured her that her case would be dropped. Additionally, Griffin accessed the Delaware Criminal Justice Information System without a departmental purpose to obtain information on the woman and the complainant. Previously, Griffin had been disciplined with a 480-hour suspension, demotion from corporal to patrolman first class, and a two-year probationary period for repeatedly visiting a woman’s home in his patrol car while on duty.
