Incident Reports
2021-2022 False Arrests
In April 2022, Haferman arrested Derrick Groves for driving under the influence, and claimed that Groves "had blood shot, glassy eyes, and his pupils appeared to be different sizes". A blood test showed that Groves had no drugs or alcohol in his system.[3]
An internal review of DUI cases showed that nine of Haferman's arrests in the last year came back as having no drugs or alcohol involved.[1]
The department's officers made 504 DUI arrests in 2021, and 11 came back with no drugs shown. Haferman was responsible for 191 of the department's DUI arrests that year, and was the arresting officer in eight of the 11 cases that tested negative.[3]
