ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. The city of Albuquerque announced Saturday it reached a financial settlement with two officers who said former APD Police Chief Mike Geier allegedly retaliated against them.
The two officers will each receive $175,000, according to APD.
The case stems from an audio recording that was obtained back in October where APD Academy Commander Angela Byrd angrily addressed cadets for more than five minutes after someone complained about discrimination.
“You have the gall to send something to HR, and I want to know who it is. I want to know by the end of the day who it is,” said Byrd in the audio recording.
