Amarillo Police:

"On Saturday, September 14th, Chief Robert Taylor was advised that a member of the Amarillo Police Department, Donald Ray Sanders Jr., was the subject of a criminal investigation being conducted by the Randall County Sheriff’s Office. Officer Sanders was immediately placed on administrative leave pending outcome of the investigation, and the APD initiated an internal investigation. The internal investigation disclosed information sufficient to justify termination of the officer. On Monday morning, 9-16-13, his next scheduled work day, Sanders was terminated from the Amarillo Police Department. Sanders has been employed by the Amarillo Police Department since 2003.
The criminal investigation into the allegation is being conducted by the Randall County Sheriff’s Office. The criminal misconduct is alleged to have occurred outside the city limits of Amarillo. The allegation that the department is aware of involves off-duty, personal conduct by the officer. The incident is in no way connected to Sanders’ employment as an officer and is not connected to his assignment as a school liaison officer."
