According to one of the police officers who quit, he felt that Byrd's father was too involved in police investigations while he was an alderman, which made him worry about the new mayor's plans for the department.
I’m purty sure it wasn’t because she was/is incompetent or anything. Musta been racis’ stuff.
Guess they heard about Baltimore.

that article appears to be pretty old
“Employees of one small Missouri town...”
I guess it’s too small to have a name.
I am guessing the issue is not her skin color but rather she has the reputation of being a first-class B.I. itch.
I wouldn’t work for a black woman, if I had options. If it was work for her, or be unemployed, I’d work for her, and be looking while I was working.
I’m sure there are black women who make great bosses. I’m also sure there are winning lottery tickets. I’ve never had either one.
If that makes me racist, I’m a racist, and I don’t give a flip.
she started messing with their lunches...
I’d quit too. Who wants to be hated and thrown under the bus by your own employer?
Because she was black, or because of some expressed opinions on various issues? Very hard to believe so many would quit because of her race.
Was much commented on here when it happened.
Interesting, I figured it was a StL area town but it’s down on the river by Cape Girardeau, Mo (Rushtown), Cairo Ill, and Paducah Ky.
Election?.... voter fraud.. NAH it couldn’t have been..
Black ideologlic woman incompetent police Chief... nah..
Ballot box stuffing is quite common these days in some places..
The thing you don’t WANT to think about is...
2016 Presidential election ballot box stuffings...
Even; republican primary ballot box stuffings or some other form of fraud..
MAYBE............. several forms of it..
Democrats have become very very very good at it..
WHY?. not.. republicans could care less..
NEVERMIND.... next.. think of something ELSE...
that’s way to negative...
This is a perfect example of Eastern seaboard leftist race baiting.
The town is 700 people.
Here is what happened (from Wikipedia)
Byrd succeeded Randall Ramsey, who had been mayor of Parma for a total of 37 years. Shortly before Byrde was to be sworn in, four of the city’s six police officers resigned, along with the city’s clerk and the supervisor of water treatment.[9][10][11]
The story is the incredible distortion and sensationalism of the NY Times and other leftist urban media, such as Refinery29.
And, they still can’t do math even in their correction.
4 of six is 66% not 80.
You do realize that Byrd is a Republican.
I’d be willing to bet there is something else about this mayor that ticked off the police, and it’s probably completely unrelated to the fact that she is black and female.
Interesting Article. Turns out the “black” mayor is a Republican.
Maybe they saw what happened to Baltimore...
Good for them!
Take all their case notes with them, all their engineer’s hand written notebooks, and other associated materials.
