"What if?” Suppose Mayor Melton were to be indicted, who would be on the short list to replace him? The cat who knows everything gave me his short list. Mike Brown, Brewer, Tai Adkins, & Darrel Washington. Street called up Mike Brown to get his opinion." Mayor Melton might be in trouble," Mike Brown immediately set the record straight.” I’m happy as county clerk and not interested in being mayor. Working hard to be re-elected clerk and serving the people of Lake County,” Mike Brown told me. The cat who knows everything interjects. “He’s gonna do whatever Judge Monroe tells him to do." Street took mental notes. Mayor Melton got elected via caucus when Prince was indicted. Atkins was elected via caucus to replace Kim Robinson. Brewer was also elected to the county council via caucus.

 

 

Copeland was elected mayor via caucus to replace Pabey.

    Between you and me, one thing no one is talking about is that you can't hold two public offices. You cannot be a police officer, regardless of your rank or being an elected official.

    P.S.: The first red flag might have been when the sheriff's bookkeeper stepped down not too long ago.
