Written by In 2016, Detective Thomas Nagel was terminated for violating 19 department policies, including dishonesty and bringing discredit to the department. Investigations revealed that Nagel lied about his knowledge of a false whistleblower allegation and failed to disclose the identity of the person responsible. His actions led to a loss of public trust and rendered him a ‘Giglio impaired’ officer, compromising his ability to testify in court. Nagel filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against the city, alleging retaliation for his union activities, but the court upheld his dismissal.
