Sanford Commission Rejects Resignation of Police Chief in Trayvon Martin Case

HeadlineApr 24, 2012

In a development in the Travon Martin case, the Sanford City Commission has rejected the resignation of embattled police chief Bill Lee. By a three-to-two vote, the commission decided not to accept Lee’s resignation even though it voted last month that it had no confidence in him. The Sanford Police Department has come under intense criticism for failing to arrest George Zimmerman on the night he fatally shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
