Sounds like some out-of-state police officer wrote in the Scout newspaper this week how its not fair that an inexperience officer was promoted to Chief at Murphy. Mitch stop getting others to write your sad story now. You had your chance and you tried to ride the fence by joining the SO, and hoping to have had the best chance at either job. You lost your best chance at Murphy by making a bad move. Stop crying and suck it up now! In public you pretend to be in so much control, but in private to others your story as never being an acknowledged person is becoming the same old sad story. You need to have some conviction in your decisions and stop riding the fence on so many issues, you can not have it both ways.
