Detective Fired for Alleged Role in False Arrest



A Philadelphia area district attorney has fired a detective who allegedly filed baseless charges against a contractor, ruining his business.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that the Montgomery County district attorney fired detective Mary Anders this week. The move came as prosecutors reached a $1.6 million settlement with Walter Logan, a Radnor Township man who authorities now say was falsely charged with stealing from a Jenkintown church.
Logan says the theft charges all but destroyed reputation of his business. Logan's attorney says Anders never even interviewed him, instead building the case using information provided by the church.
A message left at a number listed for Mary Anders was not immediately returned.
Officials say Logan, a Radnor building contractor, was wrongly accused of ripping off Salem Baptist Church of Jenkintown. Last Tuesday he received an apology and $1.6 million as part of a lawsuit settlement.
The lawsuit states that Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Vetri Ferman brought unfounded theft charges against Logan.
Ferman apologized to Logan, whose alleged crimes she once called "particularly despicable" and "really very low."
The church had hired Logan's contracting company to build additions to its campus back in 2003. Several years later, that same church accused Logan of stealing from them.
"When Mr. Logan insisted on being paid he got a letter," said Mark Tanner, Logan's attorney. "The letter said, 'we are throwing you off this job.'"
The District Attorney's Office began to investigate Logan's work. In 2009, he was arrested and charged with swindling hundreds of thousands of dollars from the church.
"He was shocked," Tanner said. "He didn't do anything wrong."
An independent arbitrator later determined that it was the church who bilked Logan out of payment for his work. According to the arbitrator, the church actually owed Logan more than $300,000 in overdue fees and damages.
