"Portage Police Chief Takes Swift Action: 3 Fired and Arrested for Inappropriate Comments"
Three staff members of the Portage Police Department in Wisconsin were arrested and subsequently fired after two probationary officers allegedly made inappropriate and potentially threatening comments about the petitioner of a temporary restraining order. The officers, Craig Crary and Benjamin Oetzman, are accused of violating the restraining order, while an administrative assistant, Casey Crary, was also arrested. The police chief described the employees as great but stated that their actions were a clear violation of policy and procedures. An investigation was launched, and all three individuals were terminated after further evidence, including a video, was obtained.
