A Beverly Hills police sergeant responding to the scene of
Whitney Houstons death made inappropriate comments about the
singer's appearance after lifting a sheet covering her naked
body, according to a claim filed by a former Beverly Hills SWAT
sergeant.
In the claim, Sgt. Brian Weir alleges that on the day of
Houstons death in February 2012, Det. Sgt. Terry Nutall arrived
at the scene, and "for no legitimate law enforcement inquiry,
investigative, or other proper and legal purpose... removed the
sheet and/or other covering from the body ... to an area below
the pubic region. The claim also alleges he "made comments to
the effect that the former pop star looked attractive for a
woman of her age and current state and Damn, shes still
looking good, huh?
The 48-year-old singer was discovered submerged in a bathtub in
her room at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills. The Los Angeles
County coroners office determined she died of accidental
drowning, with heart disease and cocaine use listed as
contributing factors.
Weir said in the claim that as the senior patrol sergeant on
duty he responded to the death scene. After he complained to his
superiors about the alleged misconduct, Weir alleged that the
City of Beverly Hills and its Police Department retaliated by
removing him from his position with the SWAT and K-9 units,
stripping him of various privileges and subjecting him to
various forms of harassment.
Nutalls actions included disturbing and/or moving the body of
the decedent from the position of death without the permission
of the coroner, treating the dead body of the decedent in a
way that would outrage ordinary family sensibilities,
contaminating potential DNA and harming the integrity of the
scene, the claim said.
Beverly Hills Police Lt. Lincoln Hoshino said Tuesday that the
department was aware of the claim, but said he could not comment
further because the it had been filed with multiple agencies.
Hoshino previously told NBC News that the Police Department was
not aware of any inappropriate behavior or any inappropriate
comments." He said the department stood behind the death
investigation 100%.
I'm surprised the coon didn't jump on her dead body and screw it
right then and there.
