Ban from policing looms for former West Linn chief, sergeant
Board to consider action against Reeves, Timeus for false arrest in Fesser racial bias case A year and half after the city of West Linn paid a $600,000 settlement to Michael Fesser, a Black Portlander, to settle a racial discrimination lawsuit following his 2017 false arrest by West Linn police, two of the West Linn officers most culpable in the case may lose their police certifications.
The Police Policy Committee of Oregon s Department of Public Safety Standards and Training voted unanimously Thursday, May 20, to recommend permanently revoking the certifications of former Chief Terry Timeus and former Sgt. Tony Reeves. The state s Board of Public Safety Standards and Training will consider the recommendation at a meeting July 22.
