PITTSBURGH—Pittsburgh's police pension fund says a former chief
who pleaded guilty in a corruption case will lose a $63,000
pension.  The vote took place Thursday, but ex-chief Nate
Harper's attorney is protesting that he was told it wouldn't
take place until January.  Harper pleaded guilty to corruption
charges in October. He joined the city's police force in 1977
and rose through its ranks to become chief in 2006.   If Harper
is ordered to pay restitution, he'll receive the remainder of
what he paid into the retirement account but no further yearly
payments.
