Water Department Chief leaves: wth?

The Star reports today that the KCMO Water Department Chief resigned this week.

What?

The questions come from the facts that a) he resigned, and somewhat quickly and surprisingly, first and b) three weeks ago he was "suspended last month with pay." It seems "an investigation was being undertaken of serious allegations" against him--Bernardo Garcia--since these allegations were "raised by someone in the Water Services Department."

Excuse me?

Three weeks ago he's suspended and now he quits, saying he "had voluntarily resigned to pursue other interests and spend more time with his family."

Right. I'm certain of it. It was just that.

Say, did you see those flying pigs last night?

No, no, you watch, more will come of this yet, I'd expect.

And I believe it will involve attorneys, at some point.

And it won't be pretty.


Have a great weekend, y'all.
