Among the 69 cases dismissed, 10 were infraction cases. 24 felony cases are currently under investigation.
PLAINFIELD — A Hendricks County public defender and Indianapolis attorney says dozens of cases, including drug charges, theft and more have been dropped following an investigation into former Plainfield Police Officer Valentin Khazin.The Hendricks County prosecutor says the former officer's credibility is irreparably damaged.
His reputation follows evidence in Khazin's alleged scheme of asking a gas station clerk to make false allegations against a sergeant by sending three separate letters claiming verbal, physical and sexual abuse against children within Hendricks County Schools.The prosecutor says Khazin is disqualified in the future from serving as a state's witness in any capacity, in any case in Hendricks County.
The attorney says those who were arrested by Khazin, or involved as a witness in the case, can now get those charges expunged off their record. "And depending on what the violation is, there could be a potential lawsuit involved. Although there has not been enough information to find out exactly what happened, but if this is some kind of intentional misconduct by the officer involved there could be some lawsuits involved," Nicholson said.
Khazin resigned from the Plainfield Police Department last week. He's facing criminal charges for false informing and official misconduct.
