Officer Misty Chandler Terminated After Drug Investigation

Termination processes have been started for Catoosa Police Officer Misty Chandler in the wake of a federal drug investigation.

The Catoosa Police Department and Catoosa City Hall have been in the spotlight after seven arrest warrants were issued Thursday following a five-month long drug investigation.

The News On 6 has learned Chandler was also a target in that investigation. Her court case is to be scheduled within the next 72 days.

Catoosa Assistant Police Chief Paul Whitmire, who's been on paid suspension since shortly after the investigation began, arrived at the police station Thursday after receiving a phone call informing him he'd been indicted for obtaining prescription painkillers illegally. U.S. Marshals were waiting for him.
