This memorandum is in reference to an incident which occurred on 7/30/2020 and your conduct
at that time. Specifically I am referring to your written correspondence with your subordinate,
Officer Nathan Heinrichs. You engaged in written correspondence with him about his work

another.
2. Employees will address one another by proper use of rank or title when on-duty
and in the presence of the public.
