Minneapolis police chief resigns after interfering with an investigation, mayor says

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara, who was hired to oversee reforms in the aftermath of George Floyd’s killing, chose to resign rather than face disciplinary action for interfering with an investigation into his conduct, Mayor Jacob Frey announced Tuesday.

O’Hara, who led local police during the recent federal immigration crackdown in the city, was under investigation on accusations that he was engaging in intimate relationships with city employees.

The mayor told O’Hara he would be disciplined, which could include his termination. He chose to resign instead, Frey said.

“It was an extremely painful decision, obviously, but I concluded that that was necessary to maintain public trust, and this was the right way to move forward as a city,” Frey said.

While those allegations were never substantiated, Frey said investigators found that O’Hara had interfered with the probe. He is accused of deleting a contact card from his city-issued cell phone in an attempt to shield evidence and telling another city employee about the investigation after he was instructed to keep it quiet, according to a written reprimand obtained by The Associated Press.

A direct descendant of this Chief O'Hara?



Holy sanctuary city Batman! As of now the disgraced former police chief's whereabouts are unknown, he may have retreated to his native NJ.

On the bright side, he wasn't banging a judge in her chambers.

Judge reprimanded for noisy sex in chambers revealed as Obama appointee who sentenced Todd Chrisley.

Surprised? Any “police chief” hired by Democrats must share their demonic, hedonistic values.The working cops in these places know these guys are snakes.

Are you referring to the department tie clip?

Might as well. Couldn’t be any worse then the gadfly leftist eastern big city slicker “chiefs” they usually wind up with.

No. Look at all the dandruff in the dip just below the knot in the tie.
