I feel so bad for the deputy. Maybe he was taken out because of this problem with the counsel. Just because the killer was crazy doesn't make this aspect of the story go away. Crazy people are easier to manipulate, maybe someone put him up to it. Either way, it makes me feel very bad that the deputy had such an awful experince with local politics prior to his killing. I'm sure he must have thought that when he realized he was being ambushed. That's really terrible.

It's crossed my mind, too. By just about all accounts, he was one of the good guys. The only negative stuff I've seen has been related to the city council stuff. Do you know why they disliked him? None of the articles gets into details.
