Officer fired for double dipping on off duty pay
Lorain officer Emilio Morales was terminated after authorities found he filed activity reports for two employers on the same dates, effectively working two security details simultaneously. The case mirrors broader department scrutiny amid a Justice Department probe into use of force. Morales cited financial pressures as his reason, while city officials called the conduct theft and malfeasance.

Sheffield may seek a 0.5 point tax hike in May
Sheffield Village Council plans a 0.5 percentage point income tax increase to save emergency service jobs and set its 2009 budget by December 22. A bid to suspend the three reading rule failed 4-2, sending the ordinance to a final reading on December 22 unless returned to finance committee. The move aims to avoid layoffs including cuts to part time staff and overtime.
