Last month, Patty Carson was elected to be the mayor of the town of North, South Carolina. Two weeks later, the town’s police chief resigned because of differences with the new mayor – and the rest of the force followed suit.
Mark Fallaw, who had led the force for 14 years, says that he tendered his resignation because Carson was starting to micromanage his department and that her new directives were “contrary to national standards.”
One police officer left the department prior to the election. Then another officer, a reserve officer, and a department clerk joined Fallaw in leaving their posts.
