Gideon Cody, the small-town Kansas police chief who spearheaded a raid on the Marion County Record, resigned Monday, Marion Mayor David Mayfield said. Mayfield hired Cody in the spring and suspended him last week without explanation. At Monday’s Marion City Council meeting, Mayfield announced Cody handed in his resignation before the meeting, “effective immediately.” Mayfield declined to talk to reporters after the meeting and offered no explanation for Cody’s departure.

Now that fucking Gestapo should be Federally criminally charged with violation of that Newspapers, and it’s employees rights under the First Amendment
Instead, watch to see which neighbouring town he gets a new police chief job in. Sigh.
I read a different article about this a few days back. The “identity theft” reasoning was due to simple Google searches conducted by the newspaper. This asshat really overstepped his authority (he had to have done it before). I’d love to see concrete repercussions, yet I won’t hold my breath.
Mayor is starting to realize just how much this fuck around will cost the city. Unlikely going to keep his job either.
Ruth herbel is gonna get his job. (They raided her too, took her computer, and boy do they have some drama with the good ole boys).
They tried to recall her for sending a text that says “Thanks.”
OK when do the consequences start?
He was hired, performed the task he was hired for, and left, sounds like it to me.
Executives have used this for decades. Governments with armies hire mercenaries for the same reason, has gone on for centuries. Romans did it, it’s so old. It’s not a far off speculation here … it’s a well known, well practiced pattern of authoritarian behavior.
Why do you guys think bad cops who resign over and over keep getting hired the next city over?
