Four of the men arrested by Patrolman Jason Stetser, Kevin Parry or Antonio Figueroa have been released from prison. An attorney representing the department's police officers union confirmed Friday the officers are part of an FBI investigation into corruption.

Officials from the Camden Police Department and Camden County Prosecutor's Office have not commented on the investigation or recently dismissed indictments. Police officials confirmed in November that Stetser, Parry and Figueroa had been suspended without pay. A fourth officer, Patrolman Robert Bayard, has also been suspended, Camden Police Inspector Michael Lynch confirmed on Friday.
