Alright so this is from Detective Laurel Hester
who's currently on medical leave of absence because,
unfortunately, she has stage four cancer.
And she's asking that in the event of her death,
her pension benefits be assigned to her partner, Stacie Andree.
- Stacie Andree is a woman, correct? - Correct.
I'm just trying to wrap my mind around her being a lesbian.
Well, she's so not like a lesbian.
The contract we negotiated with the police union
doesn't give Detective Hester the right
to assign her benefits to her roommate, end of story.
Alright, so motion to deny Detective Hester's request?
