FL State Attorney Andrew Bain news conference
SUMMARY: During a press conference, authorities revealed the grand jury’s findings regarding an incident involving Officer Andrew Basio of the Casmi Police Department. In August, Basio was indicted on six charges, including felony battery, for using excessive force on a man during a 2023 incident. The investigation exposed a culture of cover-ups within the department, where misconduct was routinely unreported. The grand jury identified significant deficiencies in training, oversight, and internal investigations, urging reforms. Following the findings, two officers, including the former chief, resigned, and the department is restructuring to enhance accountability and address these serious issues.
