Clayton Police Chief Accused Of Sexual Misconduct

A small town police chief in western Wisconsin has been arrested and charged with sexual misconduct.  Grant Pickard faces four charges, including one felony.  The St. Croix County prosecutor accuses the chief of engaging in sexual contact with a female subordinate last year.  The victim says Pickard forced himself on her and continued to act inappropriately.  Pickard says the sexual contact and communications were consensual and the victim only complained after her work performance started being examined.  He is scheduled to return to court Wednesday.
