Officer Jennifer Cackler & Dispatchers Fired for Egging House

A Dallas area police officer and three dispatchers have been fired over the egging of the house of a resident known to file complaints.

Carrollton Police Chief David James on Thursday said the May 9 incident led to the firing of Officer Jennifer Cackler, plus dispatchers Laura Anderson, Ashley Cackler and Laken Schifelbein.

James said the terminations happened following an internal investigation of the off-duty incident.

No charges were immediately filed in the misdemeanor criminal mischief investigation.

The Carrollton home of Steven Benzer was pelted with eggs. Benzer said he believes a female neighbor, the target of some of his complaints, is friends with the officer.

No decision was immediately announced on whether the fired employees plan to appeal.
