So this gets weirder... the mayor was being followed by a county deputy, supposedly after the mayor's wife had requested the Sheriff's dept check in on his wellbeing.
Who is the deputy's boss? Sheriff Charles Lemon, who was recently reinstated to his post by the governor following his acquittal of civil rights violation charges. This guy was suspended from 2021 until Aug 2024. And a few weeks ago he lost reelection to the guy who filled in for him all these years.
The town's police force resigned because they're upset the town council was cutting their funding.
Definitely sounds like some kind of harassment or grudge.
Hmm, well that's a little suspicious. It certainly sounds like retaliation. And the police saying they were chasing him to protect him? What?
