Greenfield Officer Arrested On Bribery, Misconduct Charges

Last updated on Monday, April 7, 2014

(GREENFIELD) - Police Lieutenant Terry Austin was arrested over the week-end and faces bribery and misconduct charges.

Court documents show the Greenfield policeman offered fellow officers an expensive steak dinner if they'd pull over his ex-wife for a traffic violation.

McCordsville Officer Nathan Garner told investigators Austin made the offer over the phone after sending text messages with his ex-wife's driving status information.

Austin allegedly said he'd give Garner a description of his ex-wife's vehicle and an approximate time of when she would leave for work.
