Racine Police Officer Resigns After Prostitution Accusation

An 18-year veteran of the Racine Police Department has resigned after reaching a plea agreement on a prostitution charge.  Investigator Todd Morschhauser denied the accusation and entered a guilty plea to a charge of disorderly conduct.  Morschhauser and the woman both said they had sex at his Milwaukee apartment.  He reported the theft of a gun after she left.  The woman denied taking his gun but admitted to prostitution.  She says he paid her $100 to have sex with him, though he had promised her $300.  Morschhauser says he only gave the woman the money so she would leave his apartment.
