Ombudsman retires; G. Mike leaves police post

Story PictureA press release from his office indicates that Ombudsman Paul Rodriguez has announced his retirement. The resignation is effective June thirtieth of this year and is occasioned by his reaching the mandatory retirement age of seventy. Rodriguez, who has held the post since its inception in 1999, goes on pre-retirement leave as of February eighteenth, paving the way for the early appointment of a successor. Also stepping down is Police Press Officer G. Michael Reid. Reid was a familiar face on the news and regular—not to mention controversial—caller to radio talk shows.
