Guy Tunnell -Whatever

I guess I’m the only person in the whole universe in Florida
Who thinks that the appointment of Guy Tunnell to the states attorneys’ office of cold cases is a bit odd.

At the time of his appointment as head of the Florida department of Law Enforcement
There had been accusations of racism. See here
Well Mr. Tunnell proved by his comments during the handling of the investigation in young Martin Andersons death that he was indeed a racist unfit to hold the post.
His department was removed from the investigation.

While coverage of his resignation was speculative, it’s now clear that he did in fact
Make racial and derogatory comments.

Tunnell submitted his resignation to Gov. Jeb Bush hours after The Miami Herald requested he comment on whether he likened U.S. Sen. Barack Obama to terrorist leader bin Laden and the Rev. Jesse Jackson to outlaw James during a meeting of Bush’s agency heads Tuesday. One person in the room and another source who spoke with an agency head told The Miami Herald about his remarks.
But apparently being a racist is ok, as long as you’re a part of the good ol boy network in Florida.

14th Judicial Circuit State Attorney Steve Meadows stated
. “His 33 years of law enforcement experience is too valuable to let any short-term political considerations interfere with what is the most effective program for our citizens.”
Whatever….
It’s also a bit odd that none of the guards or the nurse responsible for the murder of Martin Anderson have been charged. Or maybe its not.
