“Cincinnati has a petty tyrant named Simon Leis that holds a similiar disdain for court rulings he doesn’t approve of.”
Sounds like either a mandamus action or a suit for official oppression is in order.
Colonel, USAFR
He’s certifiable. I know this from a speech he gave to the local ASIS chapter back in the early 1990’s that I attended.
(ASIS is to security professionals what the AMA is to doctors).
His ‘speech’ was about how he had fired a deputy, and had just come from Columbus (state capital) where his decision to terminate the deputy was found to be completely and totally discredited.
The deputy’s ‘offense’?
His SISTER had written a letter to the editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer critical of the Sheriff’s claim that his personal demand all deputies wear ‘chucka boots’ was not part of the uniform, and therefore on the deputies to provide at their own expense.
He fired a deputy because of a letter to the editor the deputy didn’t send in.....
Its open admissions of this kind of insanity that are the reason he never is quoted in his campaign commercials, and never, EVER, would agree to a open debate with an opponent.
Complete and total nutcase, in short.
