Madison to Decide Whether to Pay Retired Policeman $110,000

Madison will decide whether to pay ex-policeman Lt. Robert Stimpson $110,000 on Nov. 10, Jack Kramer reports from The Source.

Stimpson retired in Nov. 2012 after serving in the Madison police force for 33 years.

According to the paper, Stimpson is seeking the funds under the state’s heart and hypertension law. Although the law was repealed nearly a year ago, those who worked before the law was repealed can still have their claims paid.

First Selectman Fillmore McPherson told the paper he had been a steadfast critic of the repealed law.
