Houston Police Officer Pleads Guilty to Misapplying Union Funds

Houston Police Officer Jeff Larson Pleads Guilty

Houston, Texas

A former Houston Police officer and police union treasurer pleaded guilty to misapplying union assets on Thursday.

Jeff Larson was charged with misdemeanor of fiduciary property.

As part of his punishment, Larson must hand in his badge and pay restitution, the Houston Police Officers Union says.

Larson was one of three union members charged with misapplying union assets.

“As disappointing as the actions of these former officials were, the filing of criminal charges against them and the resulting sentences have allowed the HPOU to move forward and recover some of our monetary losses,” a statement read.
