Cop Harassed Over Playboy Model Wife

A police officer in Ohio claims the Police Department defamed and harassed him by having “a detailed and invasive non-criminal investigation” into him and his family shortly after his wife posed in Playboy magazine (photo below).

Former Det. Ronald Fithen is also claiming that they denied him the right to take leave to drill with Army National Guard, badmouthed him to Army National Guard officials and denied him paid leave to drill with his unit.

Filthen and his wife both filed legal papers suing the city, police department and Police Chief Dennis Murphy.

He says he was demoted after he filed a worker’s compensation claim and requested medical leave on the advice of his doctor, because of “intense, debilitating, and unwarranted work stressors.”

You would think having your wife pose in Plabyoy would make you very popular in work, especially in a police station.
