University officer faced multiple investigations and past suspensions
Lt Christopher Johnson, on paid leave for months, was reinstated April 20. He previously faced a year on leave before a 2013 two day suspension after a disciplinary hearing. An April 10 memorandum notes a coworker complained of offensive remarks about a relative, though not sexual harassment, and a university official referred him for workplace behavior training. An internal police probe is ongoing while Johnson pursues court claims over overtime pay for leave and seeks to widen that challenge.
