Warren Patrolman Hollihan suspended

WARREN

Warren police Chief Tim Bowers has suspended Patrolman Jeff Hoolihan for 30 days without pay, starting June 1, for violating Warren Police Department policies and procedures.

Hoolihan, a veteran Warren officer and detective, was the subject of an internal affairs investigation after he told a local television reporter that city officials had covered up a crime he investigated in 2008.

Hoolihan said he told the reporter about an investigation conducted at the Warren Waste Treatment Plant that uncovered pornographic images on an employee’s computer.

Hoolihan said he talked about the investigation because he had been told that the investigation had been closed and that the worker had not been charged.
