In 2020, Reginald Brown, a high-ranking officer, was terminated for delaying the referral of a police brutality case involving Timothy Williams until after the mayoral election, allegedly to influence the outcome. He was found to have been untruthful during the investigation, including failing a polygraph test. The Monroe Municipal Fire and Police Civil Service Board reduced his termination to a 90-day suspension without pay.
