The Topeka City Council met four hours without action on firing Police Chief Ed Klumpp who announced plans to retire December 16. District Attorney Hecht released a 125 page report alleging police misconduct in narcotics, including misused drug funds, falsified records, and off duty alcohol use. Klumpp defended his discipline approach and most council members supported him despite questions about former officer Thomas Pfortmiller.
