Up until Thursday aden, accompanied by lawyer, was still covering and calling this an unfortunate incident. 24 hours later duran is fired, his name is released, and it has made national news. Seems he got some legal advice in between.
Smells like a CYA/sacrificial firing to throw 'em off the real problem(s), but maybe I just read that in a book or saw it on TV. Rather than quickly turning his back on the guy he defended from go, you would think a good boss would walk that back, move toward decertifying duran, maybe even get an RPO, and make sure he doesn't flee.
ETA. And where is the Florida district 1 "congressman" while all of this transpires? Glad you asked. He has secured himself and staff in the same building, behind armed deputies and metal detectors, as the Okaloosa County "sheriff" currently flailing to place all blame on one person.
And yet, the Florida district 13 Congresswoman finds district 1 issues important enough to come over here and probe/question. Maybe we can convince her to move over here...
Prob'ly nothing to all of that, but, considering lifestyle of our "best/brightest," ya never know when your gonna need a "courtesy" ride, someone to "forget" to turn on their body cam, or just "lose" a report, but I'll do one right now based on what I remember...
