Officer Candi Perry Charged with Giving False Report

Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Officer Candi Perry is a former officer of the year, speaks Spanish fluently and is accused of official misconduct and false reporting during a homicide investigation.

It was on June 25th that a homeless man - Herman Baker - was found shot to death in an alley near west 32nd Street and Rader Street. Officer Perry was on duty and her attorney claims was simply trying to shield a potential witness from a potential suspect. However, the grand jury indictment alleges Perry gave false information to another officer.

Perry's lawyer argues she isn't a homicide detective and any mistakes she made were innocent and unintentional.

There is no word of arrests in the Clark murder case.

Perry was arrested Tuesday and released last night on $10,000 bond. She faces a November 4th court date.
