Sgt. Kandou Worley, 40, and Officer Stephanie Gallardo, 33, were both assigned to the department’s…
Despite vehement opposition from the mayor and some Colorado Springs City Council members, the local firefighters union has collected enough signatures to place a collective bargaining question on the city’s April ballot. All that’s left is a vote next week by the council, a formality because the Professional Firefighters Association, IAFF Local 5, collected about 16,000 signatures that were validated late last month, City Clerk Sarah Johnson said.

The Department of Public Safety announced the suspensions Monday afternoon.

He was found to have violated a rule defining good behavior. Safety Director Ned Pettus Jr. issued a 96-hour (four-day) unpaid…
The federal Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, not always known for the brevity of its decisions, has recently used a case involving the termination of Spokane Police Chief Frank Straub as the vehicle to succinctly describe whether chiefs are entitled to due process upon their termination, and if so, when. Due process rights come in two varieties, depending upon whether the employee has a “property right” to the job….
