On Thursday, Police Capt. Jeff Butler filed an amendment to his lawsuit against the city, alleging that some officers “flagrantly and illegally abused the overtime system.” Butler said he was in charge of overseeing the audit. “He’s alleging that, over the course of time, some of the officers have misused the overtime system,” said Randy Freking, one of Butler’s attorneys. “If you’re getting paid and you’re not working, that could be characterized as theft in office.”
