Fayetteville officer suspended over alleged sexual harassment, conduct violations


Dominic Swanfeld was also reprimanded in 1998 for violations

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. —A Fayetteville Police officer has been suspended after several alleged violations of the department's professional conduct policy, according to documents from the Office of Professional Standards.
Investigators determined that Sgt. Dominic Swanfeld violated several department policies including inappropriate contact involving a woman who volunteered with the department. Documents show the woman was an intern.


Swanfeld was accused of sexual harassment after he made sexually explicit comments and slapped the woman on the backside during a Fraternal Order of Police function at the Chancellor Hotel in June, according to the documents.
During the investigation, authorities concluded that Swanfeld did violate a city policy in regards to sexual harassment.
Documents show Swanfeld also violated other policies of the police department including, driving a police car after drinking alcohol, exhibiting dishonesty, deception or falsifying a report and creating a hostile work environment because he discussed the details of a subordinate officer's personal life.
Fayetteville Police Chief, Greg Tabor, said the victim did not make the complaint; rather, another officer told the department after hearing about what happened.
Swanfeld was suspended for a month (160 hours) effective immediately.
40/29 News asked Chief of Police, Greg Tabor, why Swanfeld was not terminated. Tabor said his department looks to see if someone is "salvageable" before they are fired.
"Could he have been demoted and or terminated, absolutely could be, but someone has tot make the decision of his discipline and that's me." Tabor said.
He continued, "Can, can it be fixed? My opinion of this case is it can be."
40/29 News obtained documents that show Swanfeld was suspended in 1998 by the Fayetteville Police Department. According to those records, he was a bar (off-duty), but flashed his badge and told the owners he could get the club shut down if they kicked him out.
Tabor said, that incident was not considered "recent." He said it happened when Swanfeld was a not in a supervisor position and was a "fairly new officer."
He was given a written reprimand, removed from the Special Investigations Unit and declared ineligible for promotion until performance review and improvement.
40/29 News reached out to the president of the Fraternal Order of Police, who declined to comment.
