The Walton County Sheriff had a simple request: Give me $311,431 for 911 equipment.
The freedom haters on the county commission denied the request unanimously. Why?
Probably because, if you're asking for that kind of money, you might want to show up for the hearing.
Sheriff Ralph "Iron Chef" Johnson was at a cooking school at the time:
Johnson was at Freeport High School at WZEP’s 14th Annual Taste of Home Cooking School when the County Commission unanimously denied his request for $311,431 for 911 equipment.
WZEP co-owner Marty Dees said the Sheriff’s Office is one of the event’s sponsors. It’s unclear when Johnson committed to attend.
...Dees said Johnson was one of about 700 people who attended the cooking school when the doors opened at 4:30 p.m. That was about the time that the County Commission denied the Sheriff’s Office request for the money.
Sheriff Johnson may try to appeal the commission's decision, this time bringing a delightful Grilled Bruschetta with Rosemary-White Bean Purée & Heirloom Tomatoes.
