Gideon Cody, the small-town Kansas police chief who spearheaded a raid on the Marion County Record, resigned Monday, Marion Mayor David Mayfield said. Mayfield hired Cody in the spring and suspended him last week without explanation. At Monday’s Marion City Council meeting, Mayfield announced Cody handed in his resignation before the meeting, “effective immediately.” Mayfield declined to talk to reporters after the meeting and offered no explanation for Cody’s departure.

Instead, watch to see which neighbouring town he gets a new police chief job in. Sigh.
