Written by In 2013, Lieutenant Heath Jones was terminated from the Heflin Police Department for ‘conduct unbecoming of a police officer’ and ‘not following Law Enforcement Code of Conduct.’ The termination was linked to his relationship with a convicted felon, which was deemed a violation of department policy. Jones alleged that his termination was retaliatory, claiming he was dismissed for refusing to participate in retaliatory actions against a fellow officer involved in a gender-discrimination lawsuit. He filed a lawsuit against the City of Heflin, asserting that his dismissal was in retaliation for his support of the fellow officer’s claims. The case, Jones v. City of Heflin, was documented in 2016. [Source: Jones v. City of Heflin, 207 F. Supp. 3d 1255]
