Nakamoto, the Chief Investigator of the WBRZ Investigative Unit, was in White Castle looking into questions about the mayor's salary. Monday, WBRZ submitted a public records request related to how much the mayor makes. A public records request is a formal inquiry anyone can make to get access to public government documents. An elected official's salary is public information. Nakamoto was at city hall checking on the records request.
quote:
Nakamoto was put in handcuffs, escorted to the police department and written a misdemeanor summons. The summons was written for an alleged violation of statute 14:63, remaining after being forbidden. A WBRZ video photographer recorded the entire situation and the station will broadcast video of what happened beginning on WBRZ News 2 at 4:00.

I'm going with this...
quote:
Previously, WBRZ and WBRZ.com have reported documents obtained by the Investigative Unit indicated that during the week of April 6 until April 19, 2015, Mayor Jermarr Williams earned $20.31 per hour. That's about $40,000 per year. Later, from November 16 thru the 29th, check registers indicated his salary increased to $24.44; about $51,000. That hourly rate equates to almost a 20 percent raise. WBRZ is told any increase to the mayor's salary needs to be done by ordinance and the records request was set to show when an ordinance was approved by city council members for the new salary.
Last year, citizens of White Castle sued, claiming Williams and the town clerk refused to produce public records they requested. Friday, a judge ordered the town to produce the records and required the town to pay fees associated with the citizens' lawsuit.

Very dumb on White Castles part. They are going to look like dumb asses. Should have just let him do his thing and leave.

I was so confused at first. I thought he was investigating the mayor's salary in a White Castle restaurant.
Yes, I know, I'm dumb.

The mayor of White Castle makes 51k? Podunk town. You could literally be about anything else and do better.
