Look who's out of jail

Nope. The chief remains the chief. Resignation not accepted. :D

In other news ... as I stated earlier the Sanford town council was set to vote on a severance package for the former police chief in late April. It appears that they have come to an arrangement where the former police chief has agreed to resign rather than be fired.

Sanford, Fla., chief to resign; officials must OK
http://www.wral.com/news/story/11014335/

The vote on this "personnel matter" will take place behind closed doors this afternoon. I expect an agreement has been struck and financial package offered. Resigning rather than being fired will likely allow the police chief to be hired by another local town in Florida, so taking a deal to resign is in his best interest.

I will also note that the local prosecutor who failed to properly pursue the case before the state took it over is still on a leave of absence and is probably next on the chopping block.

Yes, this entire thing is becoming a complete circus. First the vote was scheduled to terminate him, then he offered to resign, and now the council refuses to accept his resignation.

Sanford commissioners reject police chief’s resignation

As if it could not get any stranger....

The reason the Sanford commissioners did not accept Police Chief Lee's resignation is so that they can await the results of a Federal investigation into the conduct of his department.

The town is still not restoring Lee to his active role but is hiring an interim police chief (who would want this job?)

It appears that they want to be able to fire Lee with cause to avoid paying four months severance, and that they also want to ruin his future career by firing him with cause (which makes him unemployable in Florida) rather than letting him resign.
