Detroit’s Chief of Police was suspended over accusations that he had an affair with a subordinate officer. Internal affairs officer Angelica Robinson had a relationship with Chief Ralph Godbee for “many months.” Click below to find out more.
Both are married, though Godbee is in the midst of divorcing his wife.
The scandal broke when Robinson allegedly tried to end the affair. Believing that Godbee was sleeping with yet another woman, she tweeted a photo of herself with her department-issued pistol in her mouth.
“After learning of the allegations regarding Chief Ralph Godbee, I have placed him on a 30-day suspension pending a full and thorough investigation of this matter,” Detroit Mayor Dave Bing said Tuesday.
Assistant Chief Chester Logan is taking over Godbee’s duties in the meantime.
