Some reports claim Byrd demanded a promotion.
Loudermilk had concerns based on Byrd’s lengthy discipline record, for which he paid no price.
His History of Recklessness
Captain Byrd was referred to the USCP Office of Professional Responsibility (“OPR”) in 2004 for an incident in Prince George’s County, Maryland. Byrd discharged his weapon. He shot at an oncoming vehicle. A neighbor was in the line of fire at the time. Byrd said he jumped out of the way and said he shot into the windshield of the second car. After an investigation, they found he shot into the back of one vehicle. The conclusion was there was no threat. His testimony that the vans attempted to hit him “is inaccurate.” He discharged his weapon as they passed him.
He violated the truthfulness policy and discharged his weapon in a “careless and imprudent manner.” His neighbor was in the line of fire as two stolen vehicles passed him by. On appeal, the disciplinary board overturned the ruling.
In 2015, then-Lieutenant Byrd was referred to OPR for an incident involving a verbal altercation at a high school football game in Montgomery County, Maryland. One of the officers providing security said he had to keep people off the track.
Byrd reportedly became argumentative with the officer and began yelling profanities at the officer, calling him a “a piece of shit, asshole, and racist.” Byrd then accused the officer of targeting the “black side” of the field and then “jumped the fence, came onto the track, and [confronted the officer].”
The security officer went over and tried to de-escalate the situation.
