Sgt. Kizzy Adonis will lose 20 vacation days, according to the source, for her actions related to the 2014 incident in which another officer was found to have placed Garner in a banned choke hold moments before he died.
While sources tell CNN that Sgt. Kizzy Adonis pleaded guilty, her union representative says she agreed to disciplinary charges and signed a settlement agreement. The agreement stipulated she would plead no contest to a charge of failure to supervise, and as a penalty, she was required to forfeit the monetary value of 20 vacation days. She did not admit any wrongdoing in the 2014 incident in which another officer was found to have placed Garner in a banned chokehold moments before he died.
Mullins told reporters Thursday that Adonis was not the patrol supervisor on the day Garner died, and that she proactively responded to radio calls from officers on the scene because she happened to be in the area. He said that Garner was already on the ground by the time Adonis arrived, adding that the sergeant told an officer with EMT training to check on Garner, then confirmed that an ambulance was on the way.
