An outside investigation has concluded that Michael Marzion, the police chief at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee, engaged in "inappropriate and unprofessional conduct" when he sent online messages of a sexual nature to a student, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported. But the inquiry found that the conduct did not violate university rules, noting that the student encouraged the discussion, including the sexual tone. The student had filed a complaint saying that she felt she was being harassed. Marzion admitted that he traded messages with the student, the investigation found, but could not explain his conduct. The investigator -- a former Wisconsin judge -- recommended that Marzion be disciplined, receive training on sexual harassment, or both. Marzion did not respond to requests for comment.
