Brookville, IN — Brookville Town Councilmembers who took office on January 1 have reversed the former council’s decision and rehired Terry Mitchum as Police Chief by a 3-2 vote.
The prior Town Council terminated Mitchum’s employment, along with that of Lt. Ryan Geiser, based on the recommendation of the Brookville Safety Board.
That body affirmed several misconduct charges against Mitchum and Geiser after they were cleared of criminal wrongdoing related to the investigation and arrest of a former town council candidate and another man.
Meantime, Geiser’s possible rehiring is at the discretion of Chief Mitchum.
