I would like someone to ask that question, yes.

Well, for one, the COA isn't under the control of the mayor. They're a private organization the receives govt money. Two, the head of the COA is extremely well connected politically, especially to the local judicial branch. She would never go after another "powerful" black woman, especially one that now holds the purse strings to one of the biggest potential Democrat slush funds BR has probably ever seen.

You are 100% on target.

Broome knew better and chose not to get involved. She like Kip kept her mouth shut.

Neither spoke out even though both should have.

Basically agree, but COAs are not private. They are very much a public agency as they are chartered by the state office of elderly affairs. Not Government, but not private.

To the larger point, no the Mayor does not have control over the COA; but she can't fire the police chief either and she ran on that as part of her platform. She could most certainly call for the head of the COA to step down.
