Racist Sheriff Resigns to Keep Running for Re-Election

“Hours after disgraced North Carolina Sheriff Jody Greene (R) announced his long-awaited resignation, the top cop who was caught on tape calling his Black colleagues ‘bastards’ made it clear his exit was just a strategy to ensure that he could continue his reelection campaign,” Vice News reports.

“By resigning before the county’s attempt to remove him from office could move forward, Greene is free to continue his reelection bid without consequences.”
