(Newnan Times-Herald) Grantville Police Chief Doug Jordan was suspended without pay for one calendar week at Monday's city council meeting. The reason for Jordan's suspension was that he violated a policy given by City Manager Johnny Williams.
"I require all my employees to inform me of anything that is not routine in nature," Williams said. "A trip to Arizona and an article in the paper that was not discussed with me or the police committee is not routine."
Recently, Jordan traveled to Arizona to meet with "America's Toughest Sheriff, Joe Arpaio." Following their meeting, Jordan expressed his hopes to establish Grantville's own drug team. He also planned to have some of his officers travel to Arizona for training.
