MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. (WSVN) - A longtime Miami Gardens Police officer is speaking out after being charged with serious domestic violence crimes.
Kolei Kulani McKinney Sr., 41, comes from a family of police officers and previously served in the Navy before he signed up to wear the badge for Miami Gardens.
“I love my job. I’m from that community,” said McKinney.
McKinney voluntarily surrendered to authorities at the Opa-locka Police Department on July 30 after he was accused of violently assaulting a woman earlier that month. He faces a slew of domestic violence charges, including claims that he strangled the woman and threatened her with his gun.
