Columbus' vice unit has been subject to internal and FBI investigations. More recently, charges were brought against Columbus vice squad officer Andrew Mitchell, 55, alleging he forced two women to have sex with them under threat of an arrest. Interim Columbus Police Chief Thomas Quinlan announced the closing of the vice unit Tuesday on Twitter, saying the remaining officers will be assigned to other departments. Three of the vice unit's 10 officers are currently under suspension.
Quinlan said that vice-related crimes, now under the narcotics division, will be handled differently and with a more community-based approach.
