In 1998, Sergeant Brissette was terminated following an incident where she failed to appropriately address a correctional officer’s inappropriate comment towards an inmate. The officer, Michelle Roy, made a derogatory remark about an inmate’s anatomy, and Brissette, instead of taking corrective action, treated the matter as a joke. This led to her dismissal, which was later deemed a grossly disproportionate sanction, suggesting potential gender-based discrimination in the disciplinary process.
