Former Toledo Officer Resigned After a Convicted Felon Drove Her Car — With Her Duty Belt Inside
A former Toledo police officer has resigned after a convicted felon drove her car — with her duty belt inside it.
Makinnah Billegas was charged internally with willful violation of the law and conduct unbecoming of an officer, according to 13abc. She resigned from the Toledo Police Department.
The department has not released further details about when the incident happened or what led to the internal charges. ToledoBuzz will update this story as police release more information.
According to 13abc, Billegas resigned Oct. 28. Internal affairs investigated three incidents involving James Moore, a man she met on social media and was dating, who pleaded guilty in 2013 to attempted robbery and involuntary manslaughter; police stopped Moore driving her car twice, finding her duty belt in the trunk in one stop and a loaded gun in the glove compartment in the other.
