After receiving information from a confidential informant indicating that marijuana was being sold out of the home owned by a police officer, Chicago Police conducted a search warrant on Chicago Police Officer S.M.'s home. The search resulted in the recovery of cannabis and two unregistered guns. Two of the home occupants were arrested while Officer S.M., who was also present, was not placed under arrest. One of the arrestees was a convicted felon, known gang-member and the brother of Officer S.M. In addition, the search team found S.M.'s firearm in an unlocked kitchen cabinet. We were able to convince the Board that Officer S.M. did not have any knowledge of the contraband in her home. The Board found Officer S.M. NOT GUILTY of all charges other than the minor offense of properly securing her firearm. Officer S.M. was reinstated to her position. 11 PB 2765 (2012)
