The Dorchester County ECC adjourned its open meeting and convened a closed session at 4:46 p.m. in June 2026 to discuss personnel complaints and to obtain legal advice, the chair said.
The chair cited Title 3 of the General Provisions Article of the Maryland Annotated Code as the authority for closing the session. She said the commission discussed three complaints filed against specific law-enforcement officers and received legal advice from the ACC Council concerning two of those complaints and related policy and terms that will be decided at a later date.
No personnel names or investigative details were disclosed in open session, and commissioners did not vote on disciplinary outcomes during the public portion of the meeting. After the closed-session motion was made and seconded, the chair called for those in favor to say ‘‘aye’’ and the open session was adjourned.
The commission did not announce any final decisions or next public steps on those complaints in the transcript; the chair indicated some policy matters discussed in closed session will be decided at a later date.
