Posted on Apr 18, 2008 12:00am PDT
Pearson, Simon & Warshaw, LLP has filed a claim with the City of Santa
Monica on behalf of Santa Monica Police Captain Mark Smiley. The claim
alleges that the police department placed Captain Smiley on administrative
leave with pay, predicated upon an internal investigation for alleged
criminal wrongdoing in his capacity as Capitan. Since Captain Smiley was
placed on administrative leave in November of 2007, he has not been provided
with any detail or the status of the investigation.
