Investigation continues into deputy’s alleged misconduct

The investigation is ongoing into an allegation of misconduct by a Freeborn County Sheriff’s Office deputy who is running for sheriff.
Freeborn County Administrator John Kluever said investigators with the Rochester Police Department still need to interview the person who filed a complaint against deputy Dale Glazier, along with Glazier himself. Kluever anticipated the questioning to be completed by the end of the week.
Glazier, 50, was placed on paid administrative leave on May 30. He said earlier this week he has not been told what he is accused of, other than to label the allegation as “misconduct.”
Glazier said he plans to continue his campaign. He has worked for the Sheriff’s Office since 2003.
He is running against incumbent Sheriff Bob Kindler and fellow deputy Kurt Freitag.
Kluever said he did not think the allegation had any connection to the sheriff’s race.
