As they say at SXSW you wont get paid but youll get exposure!
He could have been arrested for indecent exposure.
If they had a police department.
“Lee, who had worked nearly 20 years for the town, walked nearly a mile home during a snowstorm in a pair of boots, his hat and underwear before his wife picked him up.”
Why would she pick him up at home?
At any rate, this means he would have only had a work cell that he presumably just turned in, and not a personal cell phone.
More power to his principles, although it sounds like something I might have done much younger than he is.
Well? Was he hot looking?? If he were a woman, FReepers would have graciously posted photos.
Not sure they were better off with a police department, if this is the Chief... Talk about stupid.
If he’s that much of a wimp, maybe he was not right for the role. What were they going to do if he went home and changed and brought back the car and uniform, with a ride? There was nobody to arrest him. And any future judge is going to see they put him in an unreasonable position, and that he acted reasonable by doing so.
I smell a lawsuit ... probably has a queue of lawyers waiting to talk to him now.
After 20 years on the job, the fact someone did not offer a ride home and made him turn in his uni first says to me there is more to this story.
No wonder they fired him, he's an idiot.
WHAT A DISGUSTING STORY !! THEY HAVE NO HEARTS !!
“Take home cruiser”
Cop issued phone?
Cop issued clothes?
All paid by the taxpayers?
End that giveaway crap.

Would have been the perfect day to go to work ‘commando’
This is why his mother always told him to make sure he wears clean underwear.
