When the investigation is complete, this woman is toast.
How are you so ignorant? Seriously, please tell me.
First she said no one on her staff didn't try to have him fired BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT. When the tape was presented to her by her staff, she immediately turned it over to investigators.
She is in complete cooperation with the investigators.
It seems to me that the commissioner is a bitter old fool. Unfortunately for him, he was an employee of the Palin administration. Alaska is an at-will state. She can fire him for whatever reason she wishes. She fired him because he was not filling empty trooper positions.
In defense of the commissioner, she claims the trooper positions were empty because Wooten was a bad person to be representing the force. AND SHE WAS RIGHT.
Get over it, Kirk. This is hardly a scandal. It will blow over with ease.
