Murfreesboro Police decommissioned a police officer accused of assaulting his wife last week.
Officer Finess Brown was decommissioned Friday by Deputy Chief Randy Garrett, said Maj. Clyde Adkison. Chief Glenn Chrisman concurred with the decommission.
Under a decommission, a police officer must turn in his service firearm and badge and is released of his police powers.
Detective Jennifer West is still investigating the allegations made by Brown’s wife, Catina. He has not been charged.
Deputies served an ex parte order on Brown Sunday at the sheriff’s office. The order requires him to stay away from his wife. A hearing on the order is set Tuesday in Circuit Court.
Brown, 36, was accused of assaulting his wife during an argument last Tuesday. The wife accused him of grabbing her wrist, causing her arm to be pulled behind her, Sgt. Harry Haigh reported. Their 15-year-old son tried to intervene.
“I examined Ms. Brown’s wrist and did not notice any signs of injury and she stated she was not injured,” Haigh reported.
Brown was charged with domestic assault of his wife in June 2007. Court records showed no documentation, indicating his record might have been erased as part of his case.
