Bellevue police sued over alleged failure to enforce orders in murder case
A federal lawsuit claims Bellevue Iowa police contributed to Angela Marie Prichard's 2022 murder by repeatedly failing to enforce an arrest warrant and a no contact restraining order against her estranged husband Christopher Prichard. The suit cites police favoritism, a personal relationship with Prichard, and multiple missed enforcement actions from 2019 to 2022, before Prichard was convicted of first degree murder. It names Bellevue Chief Dennis Schroeder and officers Ryan Kloft and Shelby Mutzl as defendants, seeks damages for due process, no contact order violations, and emotional distress, and notes the city intends to respond.
