FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
From Lodge #9 President Jeff Simpson
July 14, 2022

Today Columbus Police Sergeant Holly Kanode was fully acquitted of the charges brought against her by the City, charges that should have never been brought in the first place. Just as the investigations conducted by BakerHostetler proved what we knew all along - that officers did not violate City policy - this politically driven prosecution proved that Sgt. Kanode did not violate the law.

It is apparent that the City leadership does not have the best interest of citizen and officer safety in mind. Instead, they hold their own political agenda as their priorities.

For years the leaders of our City have claimed to champion transparency and accountability. Speaking of such, it was transparent throughout this trial that the charges brought by the Special Prosecutor had no merit and that Sgt. Kanode would be exonerated. Accountability would be acknowledging that the City has now spent many hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars and has nothing to show for it. Accountability would be dropping the remaining meritless charges against officers and ceasing this political witch hunt.

Unfortunately, like here, accountability will likely need imposed on the City by a judge or jury. In the days to come, Lodge #9 is looking forward to assuring responsibility is equally distributed.

In the meantime, in the best interest of public safety, it is incumbent upon the City leadership to stop the attack on its Law Enforcement at the expense of others.

God Bless The Peacemakers,

Jeff Simpson

Information Sign Up

Members: March 16, 2022

It is critically important for the Lodge to be able to communicate with you to the very best of our ability, however, please recognize that this is a two-way street. I understand most of our membership does not attend monthly membership meetings. But please understand that most of the Lodge Business is conducted on the “floor” of the monthly membership meetings. There are many reasons for such, but the most important is that Lodge Business is “family business” and it must not be compromised to those who will exploit our conversations and possibly harm our members.

Therefore, the Lodge established a mass text and mass email list several years ago to allow for the Lodge Leadership to communicate directly with the membership. We have promoted this option to the membership regularly and continue to do so.

To register to be on the Lodge 9 mass communication list:

Visit: www.fop9.org
Go to the Member Login Section and register

You can register for both text and emails or one or the other. This is also how you will now receive the Monthly Lodge 9 FOP Newsletter since we have gone digital. If you do not register, you will not receive communications from the Lodge and you will not receive your monthly newsletter.

When you sign up, you will only receive direct communication(s) from the Lodge 9 Leadership and about Lodge 9 Business. We will not give or sell your information to any entity. PLEASE take the very little time it will take you to do so.

Lodge #9 is a member driven organization and communication is paramount to our success. Please help us, help you.

Sincerely,

Jeff Simpson, President
Capital City Lodge 9
Fraternal Order of Police
