Y'know, sensible people assumed - and continue to assume - the same about Terrell Bolton, but he just keeps making headlines for one scam after another, and apparently had little trouble getting the same job in Georgia.

Don't forget that sheriffs aren't even supposed to get discretion:
Art. 2.17. [41] [48] [49] CONSERVATOR OF THE PEACE. Each sheriff shall be a conservator of the peace in his county, and shall arrest all offenders against the laws of the State, in his view or hearing, and take them before the proper court for examination or trial. He shall quell and suppress all assaults and batteries, affrays, insurrections and unlawful assemblies. He shall apprehend and commit to jail all offenders, until an examination or trial can be had.

MOATS: "Right now, you're wasting my time."

I think it was this extremely disrespectful comment that started the situation downhill. Note at what point in the confrontation this comment was made.

Stating facts clearly and concisely is not "disrespectful."

Just send him to Oakland to help out with the protests there. For his own protection, let him wear a robe and hood to conceal his identity.
