The people who squeezed into a packed Sarcoxie Community Building tonight voiced support for suspended Police Chief Brandy Corum today, a show of support that may have kept Corum on the job.
Mayor Don Triplett suspended Corum for two weeks May 4 and Corum's suspension stood following a closed door City Council session. She wil return to the job May 18.
Triplett told KSN Corum had been suspended for what he considered to be improper use of social media, as well as her showing a lack of respect to him.
Though Triplett asked Corum to resign, after the meeting he said there was never any talk of firing her.
"That was not on the table at this time.
