In December 2009, Officer Mishoe, then a sergeant, was demoted to detective due to alleged inaccuracies in his police reports. Following his demotion, Mishoe filed an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charge in December 2010, alleging that he was subjected to a hostile work environment and daily harassment. He claimed that Sergeant Mishoe compared him to an employee who was under federal indictment and later convicted of crimes. Mishoe also alleged that his requests for reasonable accommodations for his disability were denied. The EEOC charge indicated that the alleged discrimination was ongoing. This case brought attention to concerns about the department’s treatment of employees with disabilities and its response to accommodation requests.
