Judge Vacates Decision That Would've Forced Tulsa to Rehire Cop Investigated for Drug Trafficking

Arbitration ended with city forced to rehire

|

A judge has vacated an arbitration decision that would have forced the city to rehire a former police officer who was part of an FBI investigation into law enforcement and an alleged drug ring. 

Records filed in Tulsa County District Court reveal that the multiyear FBI investigation involved several Tulsa police officers and their alleged involvement with a drug ring. The ring trafficked drugs through Hispanic-owned night clubs in Tulsa, specifically clubs owned by Arnulfo "Arnie" Murillo, records show.
