A city police officer charged last year with stealing more than $300 worth of Harry Potter merchandise from Universal Studios Florida returned to the force Friday, after completing a diversion program for first-time offenders.
As part of an arbitration panel's 2-1 vote to reinstate him, Officer Henry A. Rogowski, 50, will not receive back-pay and will be monitored through the city's Track 3 program for rehabilitation, police union attorney Bryan Campbell confirmed. Assigned to the warrant office, Officer Rogowski risks termination if he receives discipline within a two-year probation period.

If I were a defense lawyer and my client was arrested by this officer, I’d drag his butt to the stand and bring that up, as often as possible. :)

If I were in charge, the guy would be lucky that my "execution program" would only kick in at higher dollar amounts.
