Fired APD Officer Connected To Samantha Dean Murder Now In Indonesia - KEYE TV
"It makes me very angry, paints a picture that makes me sad, it paints a picture of betrayal," he said. Acevedo was talking about former officer VonTrey Clark, who was fired by APD after failing to comply with an internal affairs investigation. The APD internal affairs investigators were examining Clark's relationship with Dean, if that relationship was connected to her murder, and if Clark communicated with any suspects in Dean's death. The disciplinary memo says Clark did not turn over financial and telephone records and refused to appear for an interview with investigators. "Today's firing was inevitable as soon as Chief Acevedo pulled Officer Clark off the street and subjected him to constant surveillance back in February. Over these last few months, his administration has alleged one trifling policy violation after another against Officer Clark, none of which merited a firing. These latest allegations are a stretch of both the facts and policy, and should be easy to overturn at arbitration, if we choose to proceed with it. Internal affairs already had the phone records they claim Officer Clark didn't produce. This firing would be much harder to reverse if the Chief had the political luxury to wait for Officer Clark to.
