Most of those at the Great Bend City Council meeting Monday night don’t know all that has transpired or been said regarding the ongoing controversy involving suspended Police Chief Cliff Couch and the city, retired Great Bend police officer Terry Millard said. “Perhaps we never will.”But, he told the council, “I am here now in support of Chief Clifton Couch and more importantly, the employees of the Great Bend Police Department.”This comment drew applause and cheers from the capacity crowd gathered at Great Bend Events Center for the meeting.Millard was asked to speak on behalf of the local Fraternal Order of Police Chapter. “Other Officers feared that there would be retaliation if they were to voice their feelings,” he said.His remarks were the last item on the agenda for the regular meeting that had been moved to the center due to the expected large audience.
