Yes, she did. Evidently she was fired in the late 1990's over "truthfulness issues" according to the Star Tribute.
In an internal investigation, Assam had denied she used derogatory language in an encounter with a citizen in the late 1990s, but a videotape proved differently, Kroll said.

Assam appealed and the firing was upheld by an arbitrator. Because police personnel files were not available late Monday, Minneapolis Police Department spokesman Jesse Garcia said he could not provide details.

Let’s not have cop-worship taking credit for citizen heroism, OK?
