SSCC #350 & #351–Clayton County

The Clayton County sheriff has hired two of the former Atlanta Police Department officers who were fired in the aftermath and investigations of the botched and unconstitutional Eagle raid, according to a report by WSB TV.

The city had to settle the suit for over $1 million dollars.  That’s right those two individuals cost the city $1 million in tax payer funds* and they are now employed some place else to repeat the process.

It is not as if there wasn’t cause to fire them either:

Adams and Mayes tried to get their jobs back with the APD by appealing to the city’s Civil Service Board but the three-board panel upheld the firings in both cases.

But evidently the County sheriff feels that those are the type of men he wants around his citizens.

State Sponsored Criminal #350: Willie Adams

#351: Cayenne Mayes

Because when you lie and violate the rights of citizens that is perfectly acceptable for you to go work some place else.  It’s not like someone who exercises bad judgment should get a job in a different line of work.

*I realize that while tax payers foot the bill, ultimately it’s the insurance company paying out.  What the taxpayers will foot is the increased rates because of their actions.  In the end that actually has the potential to cost the public more than just the payout.
