Sheriff Solano Resigns/Admits Wrongdoing
Holy shit
By Julia Goldberg
It's rare that a press release causes gasps in the newsroom, but the one that just arrived from Santa Fe County Sheriff Greg Solano caused quite a stir.Purportedly, according to the letter, Solano has resigned, and voluntarily met with state police to admit to having illegally sold old police vests and other items over the internet.
SFR confirmed this letter's veracity with Solano's secretary. It is below.
Update: SFR was on the telephone with Robert Garcia as he was sworn in during an emergency meeting of the Santa Fe Board of County Commissioners.

Very sorry to hear about Sherif Solano's difficulties and hope he and his loved ones will be able to celebrate Thanksgiving together knowing that there are folks in the public very appreciative of his years of dedicated service. In a time of many very poor examples of public figures refusing to take responsibility for wrongdoing, Sheriff Solano sets the bar higher; he also demonstrates how the economic crisis doesn't spare folks we depend on for government services.
He was a GREAT Sheriff who truly wished for a positive outcome on those he applied the law to.
wow, not surprised...
Great sheriff, average man who made some bad decisions though at first, it seems it may have been patriaotically motivated. Tale of Two Pities.
Oh, I guess now that he admitted his wrong doings everyone will say...that's ok...everyone makes a mistake now and then. Give me a break another screw up..what was he thinking...ah, m o n e y...yes, the root of all evil. I hope those vest don't get into the hands of some really bad intented person..hmmm. wonder why someone would want a bullet proof vest.
Come on...wake up!
