Four Phoenix officer have filed a claim, stating that they intend to sue the city for damages and for the return of their jobs.

The officers, named as Courtney Mayo, Howard Pacifico, Brandy Villareal and Jeff Johnon were accused by the city of showing crime photos at a holiday party.

The claim states that the city's allegations caused massive amounts of emotional damage, stress and loss of earning potential to the four officers.

Mayo also added in the claim that stress from the allegations caused her second-term miscarriage.

Mayo is seeking $2 million in damages and to return to the force as a night detective. Pacifico, Villareal and Johnson are all seeking $300,000 in damages and reinstatement.

The claim said the images were shown as part of a personal slideshow on Dec. 17, 2011 during a holiday party at Villareal's residence.

The Phoenix Police Department policy demands all photos, notes and interviews conducted at a crime scene be handed over as evidence.

    4 Phoenix police officers file claim against city
    All should be ashamed of themselves. They violated public trust and deserve their punishment. Should be happy they have a job still!

    Poor reporting...
    This poor reporting leaves me with a few questions. Do the four claim they did not show crime scene photos as part of a party slideshow? Do they claim to be innocent? Do they have any justification for getting their jobs back?

    trahe, click on the link
    where it says "claim states the city" - all the details you want are in that attached file. Duke13, they don't "still have a job" that is what they are suing for - try reading not just skimming.
