(USA Today) Arizona State University has started termination proceedings against a police officer who was accused by a university professor of wrongful arrest and excessive force last summer.
Officer Stewart Ferrin has been on administrative leave since July after a police dashcam video of the arrest went viral.
Ferrin was notified on Wednesday of ASU’s intent to terminate him. His attorney, Mel McDonald, said his client intends to appeal, calling the decision “beyond outrageous.”
