An FBI task force has been tapped to investigate an Ohio police unit behind a number of high profile episodes, including the arrest of adult film actress Stormy Daniels. Columbus Police Chief Kim Jacobs announced Thursday that her decision to appoint the FBI’s Public Corruption Task Force to investigate her suspended vice section follows “a variety of allegations” against the unit. Those allegations include a fatal shooting of an alleged prostitute by one of the vice squad’s detectives, Andrew Mitchell, on Aug. 23. He was relieved of duty last week for that shooting, which followed the woman stabbing him in the hand inside his unmarked car, Columbus station WCMH reported.
