BONNERS FERRY — A Bonners Ferry Police department employee has filed a lawsuit against the city alleging a hostile work environment and a pattern of harassment by former and current employees.

Wilson Law Offices filed the 53-page lawsuit on behalf of Tiffany Murray and her husband, Kevin, in District Court in Coeur d’Alene on March 17.

Murray was employed by the city as a school resource officer and patrol officer until her dismissal in 2014.

Named in the lawsuit are City Administrator Stephen Boorman and Police Chief Robert Boone, both current employees. The former employees cited include Steven Benkula, who was the police chief; Joel Minor, assistant police chief; and John Lunde, who was a police sergeant.
