Iyer, Chair of the Police Board, called the costs “fraudulent,” while Blackwell has escalated the matter to the board. The suit alleges breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and fiduciary duty violations — with damages still pending. Appeals are underway as this high-stakes case continues to unfold.
