veteran of the Oklahoma City Police Department and chief Wade Gourley has praised the arresting officers professionalism despite the captain's barrage of requests to turn his camera off the department will now investigate itself and Captain French's arrest but Chief Gurley made it clear that the captain has been placed on administrative leave and because of their contract with the Fraternal Order of Police his current status is being paid he will undergo a predetermination hearing and then the department can finally put him on leave without pay I've covered numerous stories like this in the past and often once the media hype is over and gone the incident is swept under the rug and the officer is returned to Duty with the lightest imaginable disciplinary actions so I will be 100 sure to
