Police Officer Charged for Harm

Leon Bradley

In court this morning, twenty-five-year-old Leon Bradley, a police officer of Gardenia Village, Phillip Goldson Highway, was arraigned before Magistrate Emmerson Banner.  At his arraignment, he pleaded not guilty to the charge of harm and informed the court that his girlfriend was to withdraw the charges. But Ashley Pate did not have any form of identification to present, so Magistrate Banner granted bail to Bradley in the sum of five hundred dollars and he is due back in court on May thirtieth, 2019 when Pate can reappear to have the matter withdrawn.  Pate reported to police that Bradley got into a fight with her and punched her in the face when she refused him sex. In the past weeks, two B.D.F. officers were before the court on similar charges which were withdrawn at the requests of their girlfriends.
