On Wednesday night, multiple sources in several branches of city government told PubliCola that Mayor Katie Wilson fired Police Chief Shon Barnes earlier this afternoon. Barnes was reportedly seen leaving Wilson’s office on the seventh floor of city hall Wednesday evening after a lengthy meeting. Barnes was in his uniform when he arrived at an early-evening vigil for the victims of a mass shooting on Sunday at Seattle Center, but left before the vigil was over.

    Bro never moved here. He never took it seriously. Probably thought he could just remote and jetset like all those CEOs.

    This is the best news to come out of such a tragic event. Let's just how we don't get another POS to replace him.

    GOOD.

    His pathetic responses about why he was out of town during the mass shooting showed he doesn't give a single fuck.
