Summary
Wilmington police are under fire after officers—including Sergeant Arthur Rodenheiser—were caught on duty at a saloon, leading to suspensions and a major internal investigation. Seven quarts of liquor and gaming tables were seized, and the bar owner was arrested for illegal alcohol possession. Meanwhile, UD President E.A. Trabant testified in a lawsuit by gay former theater director Richard Aumiller, who claims his First Amendment rights were violated; Trabant accused Aumiller of promoting a personal agenda and warned the university was becoming a “Mecca for homosexuals.” On the financial front, West Wilmington Federal Credit Union has closed due to insufficient funds, with the board blaming possible theft while assuring depositors their money is federally insured—an audit will take at least 60 days to return funds.
