Timmons says he placed a tracker on the police chief’s truck and a surveillance camera on a car wash pointing at city hall where the chief’s office is because the mayor’s signature goes on the chief’s time sheets and he had concerns about them.

“The mayor’s position is not just shaking hands and kissing babies,” Timmons said.

But the mayor says he did not expect officers’ signatures on a bunch of resignation letters and did not expect the entire full-time Milner police department to resign effective Wednesday, Oct. 28.

The mayor wants to and says he’ll be able to keep a police department. In the meantime, the sheriff will patrol.

Milner Police Chief Lamar Bunn says he’s done nothing wrong.

    if they have to resign over that, then they are doing something that needs to be investigated.

    Wow, I'm always impressed by the amazing amount of labour solidarity from the police force, if only they weren't agents of capital to be used against labour, I'd have more sympathy...

    Obviously every single one was corrupt. That's a really easy way to get rid of corrupt cops in your city. Now you can hire ones that aren't quite so shit at their jobs maybe.

    Who am I kidding, literally everyone in policing is a piece of shit, as evidenced by this article showing it to be true.
