POCOMOKE CITY, Md. (AP) — Attorneys representing Pocomoke City’s former police chief and two other black officers filed a federal lawsuit on Thursday accusing city officials and members of other law enforcement agencies of racial discrimination.
The filing in U.S. District Court in Baltimore comes after last year’s departure of Kelvin Sewell, Pocomoke’s first black chief, stoked racial tensions in the small community on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
Defendants named in the lawsuit include members of Pocomoke city government, the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office, Maryland State Police, and Worcester County State’s Attorney Beau Oglesby.

Since we lowered the hiring standards all over the country for police , this is what you get.
What a CROK, They should be charged with falsifying time sheets and they wonder why the where Fired.
That fat blogger is all over this as if he is really on to something. He is so desperate for fans that he has reached out to a couple of moles in Crisfield and Pocomoke. No one in Salisbury likes his fat a**!
Maybe someone should ask Sewell why he flashed his PCPD badge at a state police officer who stopped him for speeding on the Salisbury bypass. Oh yeah, this was sometime AFTER he was fired. He should be charged with theft of city property and impersonating a police officer.
