The
undersigned
affiant,
being
duly sworn, deposes
and
says:
I,
Sergeant Robert
E.
Ford
Jr.,
am a
sworn member
of the
Hartford Police Department
and
haveapproximately twelve
(12)
years experience
in law
enforcement
and
criminal
investigations. I am
currentlyassigned
to the
Hartford Police Internal
Affairs
Division
and
have been
so for the
last
two
years.
My
primaryresponsibilities
are to
investigate allegations
of
police misconduct
and
criminal activity.
On
November
2,2009,
at
approximately
1500
hours,
I was at the
Hartford Police Department located
at 50
Jennings Road.
I
entered
the
Officer's
Report Room
to
talk with
Officer
Germaine
Coachman
and
Officer
Bryant Moore.While
in
conversation with
Officer
Coachman
and
Officer
Moore;
Officer
Rhashim Campbell entered
the
room,
approached
us and
stood
to the
left
of me
while
we
were talking.
Officer
Campbell
was
looking
for
Lieutenant Kevin
Ahlquist
and
inquired about
his
location.
Officer
Tuyen
Bergenholtz
entered
the
room
and
asked
Officer
Campbell about
the
condition
of his
injured finger.
Officer
Campbell reported
to me and the
additional
officers
standing around that
he
received
his
injury
from
a
prisoner biting
him and
hoped that
the
person
did not
have HIV, hepatitis
or any
other communicable disease.
At
this time
Officer
Coachman,
Officer
Moore,
Officer
Bergenholtz,
Officer
Campbell
and I
were engaged
in a
mutual conversation regarding
Officer
Campbell's
injured finger
and the
probabilities that
he
could have been
affected
with
a
communicabledisease.
I
asked
Officer
Campbell, "How
did you let
someone bite you?"
at
which time
he
informed
me
that
he was
wrestling with someone when
he was
bit.
Officer
Campbell reported that
a
prisoner punched
him in
the
face before
he got
bit.
I
asked
Officer
Campbell
how did he let a
prisoner punch
him in the
face?

present that

through
the

"I
opened
up the

I
initiated
an

facts:
