A Baton Rouge Police officer will remain demoted.
The civil service board on Tuesday upheld the demotion of John Dauthier from sergeant to corporal.
According to reports, Dauthier was reprimanded after failing to properly review the bodycam footage of Marshall McDermitt, who was later fired after cell phone video showed him repeatedly punching a bloodied suspect in Tigerland.
An attorney representing Dauthier said they plan to appeal the decision again.
