----
Fairfax County Police Chief David Rohrer retaliated against a female police captain who disagreed with how Rohrer handled an unrelated sexual harassment investigation, according to allegations in a civil lawsuit filed against Rohrer Tuesday.

The lawsuit, filed on behalf of Fairfax County Police Department Captain Denise Hopson, accuses Rohrer of, among other things, using emails written by an anonymous accuser to defame Hopson on the department's intranet, BLUENet. The anonymous author of the emails is also accused of defamation.

Misleading title much?

Quote

Hopson is seeking a court order forcing Rohrer to identify her anonymous email accuser, as well as at least $1,000 in damages from the Rohrer. She is seeking $1 million from the anonymous accuser, who accused Hopson of favoritism and of coaching one job candidate.

Basically she's trying to find out who this anonymous accuser is. That's why Rohrer is only getting hit for $1000 and the anonymous one is getting hit for $1mil.

Edit: At least the patch article gets it right "Fairfax Police Chief David Rohrer Sued by Captain For Defamation"

Fairfax County Police Chief David Rohrer retaliated against a female police captain who disagreed with how Rohrer handled an unrelated sexual harassment investigation, according to allegations in a civil lawsuit filed against Rohrer Tuesday.

The lawsuit, filed on behalf of Fairfax County Police Department Captain Denise Hopson, accuses Rohrer of, among other things, using emails written by an anonymous accuser to defame Hopson on the department's intranet, BLUENet. The anonymous author of the emails is also accused of defamation.

A meeting Rohrer called, and subsequent emails and a related posting on BLUENet from Rohrer (attached to this article), focused on Hopson’s 2010 design and execution of a new procedure for selecting detectives for the police department’s Major Crimes Division. Hopson commands the 83 lieutenants and detectives in FCPD's Major Crimes Division.

Hopson is seeking a court order forcing Rohrer to identify her anonymous email accuser, as well as at least $1,000 in damages from Rohrer. She is seeking $1 million from the anonymous accuser, who accused Hopson of favoritism and of coaching one job candidate.

RE: sick of these people retard this is a state/fed issue the county cant do anything now as it would be a conflit of interest and unethical like letting the the cyote supervise the fox supervising the chickens

The captain should re read the 1st Amendment to the US Constiution and the VA Constitution on the inalienable rights to free speech. This isn't like yelling "fire" in a packed movie house. The illustrious captain's feelings are hurt and she is playing the gender card. The landmark case of Falwell v. Flynt speaks to this type of issue about defamation.

Our police chief is an incompetent prick, so what is new ? He kept Duval Bullock on the force after he shot and killed an unarmed eye doctor. Two million of your tax dollars went to settle the lawsuit.

Who are you kidding-you are posting on FFX Underground at 2:50am-you don't pay taxes.

Whatever happened with this anyone know?

TER

I like the FFCO department a lot better than Arlington and Alexandria. The latter has zero accountability, and Arlington has had some big gender discrimination suits.

This is the current state of affairs within the Fairfax County Police Department. What the gif doesn't show is that the dumpster is heading downstream to the Lorton sewage treatment plant.

J. Thomas Manger is retiring from MCPD ( FCPD's last great Chief) Hint, Hint.
