On February 13, 2005, Greg Koestering, a City of Milwaukee police officer, repeatedly struck Michael Ramos while Ramos was handcuffed and inside a police van. The City of Milwaukee Chief of Police, Nannette Hegarty, found that Koestering had violated a department rule that prohibits mistreatment of a prisoner by use of profane language and unnecessary force. Hegarty ordered Koestering’s discharge from the department. Pursuant to Wis. Stat. § 62.50(11) (2007-08), her decision was reviewed by the City of Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission. The commission upheld Hegarty’s decision. This opinion will not be published.
