Officer Michael Welz – Lake Havasu City Police Department

In February 2009, Officer Welz was involved in an incident where he took a golf ball from another player’s game without permission and later lied about it. During the internal investigation, he made inappropriate comments, including suggesting he should ‘put a bullet’ in his supervisor. The investigation concluded that Welz’s actions demonstrated unprofessional conduct and a lack of responsibility. As a result, he was dismissed from the Lake Havasu City Police Department.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
