Black police Officer Jervis Middleton was terminated from the Lexington, Ky., police force after a three-hour hearing, accused by officials of giving “sensitive” department information to a Lexington activist during last summer’s protests.
The Lexington City Council also announced it will review questions coming out of the Feb. 18 hearing about how the police department investigates racial discrimination in its ranks.
None of the information Mr. Middletown was accused of disclosing led to any harm to any officer, nor did it jeopardize any police operations.
