Mystery in small Oklahoma town as entire police force suddenly resigns - without explaining why (Geary)
Daily Mail ^ | 11/01/24 | James Gordon

Posted on 11/01/2024 5:54:04 PM PDT by Libloather

The entire police force of a small town in Oklahoma resigned on Thursday without explanation leaving the place in turmoil with locals demanding answers.

The mass resignation along with two city council members was announced in a Facebook post in which locals were told that an acting police chief would still remain to police the tiny town.

Geary, with a population of about 1,000, is now being covered by forces from neighboring Blaine and Canadian counties.

But the announcement has left locals puzzles with the original statement shedding little light on what was behind the mass walkout.

'To the Citizens of Geary. We regret to inform you, and we are sad to say that our entire Police Force resigned this morning at 10:00am,' Geary Public Information Officer Terryl Allen said in a statement.

'Considering this information, we were able to quickly secure an interim Chief of Police effective immediately, so the City of Geary is being taken care of without delay.'

Locals appeared baffled by the sudden resignation with little to be gained from reading Facebook comments.

'But why did they all resign?' asked one.

'I think an explanation as to what happened is what everyone wants. The entire towns police force just quit all at the same time and no explanation?' asked Robert Binswanger.

These tiny town police forces are often hotbeds of intrigue.

The cops are paid next to nothing. And often they either do nothing or act like Barney Fife.

Most of these little towns would be better served by disbanding their local departments and paying the county sheriff’s office for coverage.

Every once in a while this happens.

Could be drugs, or Billy Bob screwed Rufu’s old lady.

A 1000 person town doesnt nee a ‘force’. It needs 1 constable/officer (if that) and semi-frequent visits from the sheriff & state patrol.

My home town of 800 hasn’t had an officer for 50+ years (part time prior to that) and hasn’t been an issue.

They were all involved in something nefarious and were convinced to leave by someone who can bring it to light.

I’m guessing wild sex romps together with other parties.

No I am not kidding.

Police saw even the children are evil now and not worth defending....Then they felt their minds being controlled and a strong desire to resign.

Being on the City Council has been eye-opening to the unknown challenges the city faces, I still
believe in Geary and that it can be a bustling city again with the right accumulative guidance.
We have good people who continue to work for the city because they believe in the city, too.
I employ the citizens of Geary to be more proactive during council meetings and to listen to
what is going on. The council is made up of elected officials, and you, the citizens, should have
your voices heard. It is your right under the constitution.


There are some surprises somewhere? Usually financial?

The police had their one last chance to leave this cesspool of evil people. They took it. We’re left behind.

We had a small town where two cops who were buddy’s went on some cop training thing. They got so drunk one shot and killed the other in the motel they were staying.

Same thing happened in our small Oklahoma town. If I recall, the cops were frustrated that crime was going without arrests, drug houses would be my guess. There are several, but they never seem to get busted. Interestingly enough, the rest of the crime is not commensurate with the drug house crime. No increased robberies, burglaries, etc., to match the number of drug houses. A guy told me he asked the sheriff why drug houses don’t get busted. He told him that they never get prosecuted because they only keep an dollar amount that falls under the $1,000 felony amount.

Was the entire police force’s name Barney?
Was he mad that he only gets one bullet and has to keep it in his pocket?
