SNYDER, Okla. -- An Oklahoma police chief's job is in jeopardy and his town is in an uproar because of his wife's profession.

Snyder Police Chief Tod Ozmun and his wife, Doris, live in Snyder, just west of Lawton. However, the chief's wife is known worldwide for her work as a plus-sized model on a pornographic Web site.

Officials said the Snyder mayor is requesting an investigation by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation. Technically, the mayor cannot request an OSBI investigation. However, the district attorney's office can, and officials said the focus of any such investigation would be to determine whether city computers were used for the pictures and if that violates the city's charter.

"This came to light because some of the people in town went onto the Internet to download pictures of her and started passing them out around the citizens here in town," said Mayor Dale Moore.

Moore said he's trying to decide what's best for Snyder -- to keep a chief who many believe doesn't share their morals or to fire a man who's keeping residents safe.

"He's done more drug arrests, solved more crimes than anybody else in town has ever done," Moore said.

Resident Bryan Norton said he wants the chief fired.

"When our kids come home from school telling us that the chief's wife is a porno queen, how do you answer that?" said Norton.

Because employers have a right to require dignity and competence from their employees.

The people of Snyder are his bosses and he serves at their convenience.

*shiver*

I would normally say that what his wife chooses to do privately should have no bearing on the chief's job if he's performing it well. But good lord that is foul.

Is that the Police Chief????

[Abathar]

Just goes to show there is a market for anything out there...

[Mr. Brightside]

I was about to support the chief... until I saw the pics.

[Abathar]

Nope, he's taking the pictures evidently.

"Because employers have a right to require dignity and competence from their employees."

The police chief's wife is a city employee too?

[Wolfie]

If he is doing his job, why should anyone care what legal activities his wife chooses to pursue?

Because this is America.

MILF alert?

Or maybe this is MIRNF ...

[Slump Tester]

Do you have pictures of her in tight fighting python boots that snake upto mid thigh?

""When our kids come home from school telling us that the chief's wife is a porno queen, how do you answer that?" said Norton."

Given that that's not even a question I'm not sure that it requires an answer.

then the people have to option to vote him out. let them do it that way. the mayor should not fire him if he hasn't done anything wrong.

[sit-rep]

Tons-o-fun got busted!

[wideawake]

The police chief's wife is a city employee too?

I'm not discussing his wife, I'm discussing his personal dignity.

[BaBaStooey]

Agreed. That wasn't what I was expecting.

They may go to mid-thigh but the fat rolls back down to about her knees...
