In February 2020, Officer James Foxx sent a racially charged text message to fellow officer Lawrence Williams, referring to himself as ‘800’s house nigga.’ This message led to an Internal Affairs Division investigation, resulting in charges including Neglect of Duty, Unbecoming Conduct, and Lying and Untruthfulness. The department recommended termination, but after arbitration, Foxx was reinstated with a 13-month unpaid suspension.
