CNN has reached out to Louisiana State Police for comment.

"Trooper Cavalier received the decision of the appointing authority to move forward with termination based on an administrative investigation which revealed he violated several departmental policies," Louisiana State Police spokeswoman Melissa Matey said Thursday in an emailed statement to the Washington Post.

"It should be noted that our disciplinary administrative process is not finalized and Cavalier remains an employee at this time."

Cavalier told CNN he received a termination letter last week from State Police Superintendent Lamar Davis.

The letter, which he shared with CNN, says an investigation found Cavalier violated department policies and procedures.

The internal investigation, according to the letter, claims that Cavalier violated the department's policy on "Public Statement," "Lawful Orders," "Loyalty to the Department," "Dissemination of Information," "Seeking Publicity" and "Conduct Unbecoming an Officer."

Cavalier, who is Black, filed a lawsuit in September against LSP, where he alleges his complaints went ignored and several of his superiors racially discriminated against him for years.
