District Attorney dismisses allegations against former MPD commander
SUMMARY: Mobile County’s District Attorney has dismissed allegations against former Mobile Police Commander Kevin Levy, who was fired this week. The DA, Keith Blackwood, stated the claims were “completely meritless” after an investigation led by attorney William AIS. The investigation looked into potential misconduct related to a contract with a Florida-based company, but Blackwood found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing. Levy was accused of falsifying government records regarding a draft contract, but Blackwood asserted it wasn’t a public record yet. Mobile Mayor Sandy Stimpson indicated Levy’s firing was linked to issues that compromised his leadership, but not a lack of confidence in his abilities.
It took William Athanas 500 hours to write a 228-page report that Mobile County District Attorney Keith Blackwood claims bears false allegations against former Mobile Police Cmdr. Kevin Levy.
