Officer Michael exhibited aberrant behavior between 2007 and 2009, including possession of empty steroid vials labeled for veterinary use, secretly recording his wife during marriage counseling sessions, and allegedly accompanying a cocaine dealer to drug deals. After a third brain surgery in 2009, psychological evaluations concluded he posed a threat to himself and others. Consequently, he was placed on unpaid leave in 2010 and later sued the department under the Americans with Disabilities Act; the court ruled in favor of the department.
