Denison will pay thousands of dollars to settle lawsuit with former police officer

June 21, 2018 By Radio Iowa Contributor

Court records indicate a fired Denison policeman will be paid nearly $350,000 to settle his lawsuit against the city for wrongful termination.

Brad Wendt, who runs a gun shop in Denison, also worked as a policeman, but was fired in 2017. The City of Denison’s insurance company will pay the largest share of the settlement, about $232,000.

The City of Denison is paying Wendt $65,000 for “emotional distress” and another $50,000 for “lost wages.” Wendt’s attorney will be paid about a quarter of a million, dollars too.
