A Mantua police officer, Miranda Brothers, is planning to sue the Portage County Sheriff’s Office after a child endangerment case against her was dismissed. Her attorney, Eric Fink, claims the sheriff's office conducted an unnecessary 'sting operation' based on false accusations and treated her unfairly compared to other parents in similar situations.
Mantua police officer plans on filing lawsuit against Portage Co Sheriff’s Office after child endangerment case dismissedPORTAGE COUNTY, Ohio - Mantua police officer Miranda Brothers is planning on filing a lawsuit against the Portage County Sheriff’s Office after the child endangerment case against her was dismissed.
“We are trying to find out what it is or what caused them to initiate this operation against her in the first place and why they treated her so differently from any other parent in a similar situation,” Brothers’ attorney, Eric Fink, said.“Although she was charged with leaving the child alone with a registered sex offender, each of the officers that testified stated that they never saw any contact with the registered sex offender,” Fink said.
Brothers returned to work at the Mantua Police Department after her case was dismissed in July, according to her attorney.“Considering our office is not aware of a supposed lawsuit, there is nothing to comment on,” the sheriff’s office said.
