Officer Jeff Brownfield – Yakima Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In 2007, Officer Jeff Brownfield was terminated after being ruled unfit for duty due to disciplinary misconduct and repeated violations of personnel policies, including insubordination. Brownfield claimed his firing was retaliation for exposing possible fraud at the Police Athletic League and filed a $4 million damage claim against the city, which was rejected. The case proceeded to court, with the city prepared to defend its decision.
