Report: Cop corruption report
LOWELL | Charges of corruption in the Lowell Police Department were found to be without basis by an outside investigation, a report says, but the officer making the charges is crying foul.
Lowell Police Chief John Shelhart told the Town Council on Monday that he immediately requested an outside investigation by the Lake County Sheriff's Department after Lowell Officer Nathan Martin publicly made allegations of corruption before the Lowell Police Commission earlier this month.
Shelhart said the investigation concluded that there was "no evidence whatsoever" to substantiate Martin's assertions. He thanked the sheriff's office and the internal affairs division.
Martin, who attended Monday's Town Council session, said he has turned over his information to another outside agency.
The Lake County Sheriff's Department was "not a fair place to go" for an outside investigation, Martin said.
Martin pointed out that Shelhart sits on the sheriff's merit board and Lowell Town Attorney John Kopack is the attorney for the sheriff.
Martin told police commissioners earlier this month that he has "significant documentation of corruption" and charged that Shelhart had interfered with his efforts to bring the corruption to light.
