Milwaukee – Eight more police officers have been fired in connection with a racially charged beating at a house where off-duty officers were having a party, the police chief said Tuesday.
The firings bring to nine the number of officers who have lost their jobs over the October incident.
Frank Jude Jr., 26, has said he was beaten by men who identified themselves as off-duty officers and accused him of stealing a police badge and wallet. He said they punched, kicked and choked him while using a racial slur.
Jude is biracial, and all nine officers fired are white. No badge was found on Jude, and he was never charged with theft.
