Outlaw in Nuevowood
New Mexico was swept with a gasp when Jai-Ho broke the news that well respected, nay loved Santa Fe Sheriff Greg Solano resigned because of behavior that cannot but be classified as outside of the law.
Reaction ranged from cases of the sads, to outrage to deep disappointment. Grandpa was none-too-happy, shaking his head saying, “for a Hispanic to have risen to that level and now this…”
On the other side of the coin you can almost see the dusty settles around the silhouette of the defeated Sheriff, whose back story includes his meager beginnings, rise to the top of Capital City law enforcement, then the rue of human existence (money) and his fallible humanness (redundant) leading him to wield the weapon causing so many to fall – the internet.
But seriously this is a sad state of the State and will no doubt unfold as an epic drama, ripe for the stuff of legends in the annuls of NM history to come.
Read the story as it broke, including Greg Solano’s own statement regarding the embezzlement scandal that led to his resignation…here.
