La Vergne Mayor Jason Cole offered the police chief job to finalist Christopher Moews, public records confirm.
The city’s police officers learned about the offer from a Wednesday email from Andrew Patton, the local government’s director of human resources.
“I’m so happy to share that the city has made a conditional offer to Christopher Moews as the next police chief,” Patton said in his email.M
oews is a Milwaukee police captain and one of the five finalists for the La Vergne police chief job. He could be going from serving a Wisconsin city with a July 2022 U.S. Census estimated population of over 563,000 to serving a suburb of Nashville that La Vergne officials estimate has 42,000 to 45,000 residents.

I did a bit of background searching and found out he ran against Sheriff David Clarke in Milwaukee with the full backing of the local Democrats and our infamous Mayor.
Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s political action committee, Independence USA, has purchased $150,833 in television ads in an effort to defeat Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke and support his opponent Milwaukee police lieutenant Chris Moews.
In response to the news of Bloomberg’s anti-gun PAC ads, Clarke said in a statement. “I trust the voters. The voters can’t be bought.”
The ad buys by Bloomberg’s PAC come on top of a $400,000 in media ads purchased by the Greater Wisconsin Committee to try to beat Clarke who is seeking his fourth term in Tuesday’s (Aug 12) Democratic primary election.

I wonder how well he is going to fare trying to adapt to a state where everybody and their cat have guns up the gazoo. And once again this is the reason why Chief LEOs should be elected and not selected by a small group of politicos.
Independence USA is the name of one of Bloombuck’s PACs? That’d be funny ironic if it weren’t so … just wrong.
