After Allegations of Crash Cover-up, Miami PD Suspends Two Top Officials

Two of Miami’s highest-ranking police officers, a veritable police power couple, have been suspended amid an investigation into allegations of corruption and an internal cover-up.

Miami Police Department (MPD) Deputy Chief Ronald Papier and his wife, Little Havana Neighborhood Enhancement Team Cmdr. Nerly Papier, were relieved of duty earlier Friday, according to MPD spokesperson Kenia Fallat. Both will be paid during their suspensions.

The MPD would not say what led to the suspensions, citing an ongoing investigation, but the disciplinary action comes three weeks after an anonymous source sent an email to several city officials alleging corruption on the part of the Papiers and several other high-ranking officers.
