Breach of Trust

It seems that Slick Ricky is trying his best to dupe the citizens and the county council early in his career. A careful manipulation of the budget has netted a favored few extra coins of the realm to the said favorites bank accounts.
Carefully concealed in a supplemental budget Slick Ricky slid this one in under the radar of all the council members.
All because, according to Ted Shea, these individuals have provided a “Stellar performance”. If that were the case, why would the sheriff’s dept need collective bargaining?

Sheriff Lewis should just proclaim stellar performance for all the deputies and the problem would be solved. Not that I am against collective bargaining. I signed the petition to allow it. Collective bargaining requires that the mediator provide proof positive the raise in pay is justified. Apparently this is not the case for the upper echelon.

Nearly $10,000 is the cost to fiancĂ© this blatant show of favoritism. The solution is simple---deduct said amount from Slick Ricky’s salary.
