Three police commanders with the Washington State University Police Department will retire after the university said the officers failed to advise university leadership of an officer’s alleged sexual activity while on duty in 2020.
According to a release from the university, Police Chief Bill Gardner, Assistant Chief Steve Hansen and Capt. Mike Larsen have all informed school leadership that they will retire instead of possibly being fired after they were given notice last month of pending disciplinary action.
According to school officials, in December 2020, a WSU officer informed command staff about the alleged activity concerning Kuhrt after receiving third-hand information from a person who had advised about the reported sex acts, which occurred in the presidential suite at Martin Stadium and at the campus observatory.
Although Kuhrt did face departmental action for misconduct while on duty, it was not until March 2022 that university leaders found out about the alleged sexual activity and the investigation that was conducted. Last month, school leaders said the chief, assistant chief and captain were placed on home assignment, and their roles were reassigned to other officers.
