A Sterling Heights police officer has been placed on paid administrative leave after being arrested following an alleged altercation with his wife in their Macomb Township home. According to Macomb County Sheriff’s Department Capt. Anthony Wickersham, Kenneth Pappas, 34, was arrested after deputies responded to a domestic violence call placed by Pappas’ wife at 2 p.m. on Aug. 24. Wickersham said officers determined an assault had taken place and took Pappas into custody. He was charged with one count of domestic violence and taken to the Macomb County Jail for the night. He was released after posting personal bond following his arraignment the next day at 41-A District Court in Shelby Township. Sterling Heights Interim Police Chief Michael Reese said Pappas was suspended pending the outcome of the criminal charge and a subsequent internal investigation. Reese said the paid leave is normal protocol when an officer is involved in a criminal matter, although the entire situation rarely occurs. Pappas will be back in the Shelby Township court Sept. 29. Reese said following the result of the court proceedings, a police department investigation into the matter will be conducted to determine if and when Pappas would be able to return to work - all in conjunction with the court’s findings.

  1. Ken should be fired. If he would hit his own wife, how can the public trust him to be a law abiding police officer... To the best of my knowledge, from certain attorneys, he is going to get the boot, if not today then very soon. Being an undercover PO does not make your life very fun!

  2. It's unfortunate because behavior like this has been going on for years. He made his wife feel guilty and convinced her not to show and now Sterling Heights is stuck with this man who is suppose to keep them safe when the mother of his own children is unable to feel safe. Hopefully Sterling Heights can find all the stuff that he has done that is against the department's code of conduct.

  8. He is currently threatening to kill me and my family too!! Isn't it sad that he can kill whoever he wants and because of the lack of confidence and free speech, no website will post how many people are being killed by this man or how many are in danger!! He killed a family member of mine august 9, 2007. Then the sterling heights police made my nephew watch!! True story. I can confirm this. You can send me an email if this happened to you @ kimeland@yahoo.com. This is a fake name so don't kill this person(pappas).
