Department says investigative process of the investigation done, reviews are next steps
InvestigatesThe Internal Affairs investigation into why over 4,000 sexual assault cases were suspended because of lack of personnel remains incomplete, even though Houston Mayor John Whitmire told KPRC 2 Investigates last month he expected it to be finished by “the first of July.”
“At some point it needs to be done and to the extent that it hasn’t, that is wrong,” said KPRC 2 Legal Analyst Brian Wice. “If that is what set this investigation back, once again another black eye for Houston’s finest,” said Wice. The reopening of the investigation as a result of the Hatcher letter is having an impact on the department’s morale according to the union.
