DENVER — The Black former police chief of a small Colorado town says he was the victim of racial discrimination and fired after officers and city leaders worked to force him out even though he was cleared of wrongdoing by an independent investigator, according to a federal lawsuit. Hal Edwards, who sued the city of Leadville, 75 miles southwest of Denver, in U.S.

Multiple officers submitted a written grievance to Simonson alleging that Edwards was a “toxic” leader who belittled employees and ignored his duties as chief.

An independent investigation by Employment Matter LLC, a Denver-based company that conducts workplace investigations, largely exonerated Edwards after it looked into the officers' complaints.
