Ind. Law - "Jeffersonville City Council lawyer resigns"
Updating this ILB entry from June 21st, Ben Hershberg of the Louisville Courier Journal reports today:
Larry Wilder, the embattled lawyer for the Jeffersonville City Council, has resigned following the release of photographs of him sleeping in a garbage can after a night of drinking.Connie Sellers, president of the Jeffersonville City Council, said Wilder told her Monday that he was resigning, telling her "I can't put my friends through this."
Wilder was referring to the national distribution of the photographs and intense criticism of his behavior as a high-profile city official.
"It was the right thing to do," Sellers said, explaining that the incident had become a distraction for the City Council.
